**We Highly Recommend adding these products for best results:**
- Upgrading your Up-Pipes
- Upgrading EBPV Pedestal
- Running a Hydra Programming Chip
EXHAUST BRAKES: We get asked a lot about exhaust brakes and if they work with our turbos, these will retain the OEM feature if the vehicles calibration allows and is setup for it. We have found that some brands have clearance issues and might cause the brake to hinder performance, rub the turbine wheel, or cause other issues. These brakes typically use some sort of flapper to close which causes extreme exhaust back pressure to aide in braking. This can be hard on a turbo and motor and is not recommended.

**These turbos come sand cast unless specifically requested. You can add a polished cover for an additional $250. Two week lead time on all polished covers**
**Our turbos are designed to fit directly in 7.3 equipped pick-up trucks. Although our turbos can drop into 7.3 equipped Vans, you will need to modify the turbo intake boot and down-pipe for proper fitment**
Originally I purchased the balanced wheel assembly to rebuild my stock GTP38. I had a hard time fitting the rebuild kit in the turbo. I called KC and they walked me through the issue and how to fix it. When I realized my turbo was junk and had to be replaced I purchased a kc300x stage 1. Amazing turbo and increase boost output from my old turbo by 10-12 lbs. Chris is an amazing guy. He went out of his way to make sure his customer was taken care of. Big shout out to KC for being what all businesses should be. Customer focused with a superior product.
This turbo was just what I was looking for. They really woke up my 73.
I bought a truck a couple years ago after losing my 95powerstroke, this truck could barely pull my camper, boat, and enclosed trailer. I had turbo surge really bad. I called up KCTurbos and they answered right away. We’re super helpful and directed me to get the kc300x stage 1 turbo along with the ebpv delete. I put the turbo in and my goodness! I should have done that years Ago. Should have done it with the old truck as well. Well worth the time and money. I can keep up with 6.7 power strokes pulling now.
Purchased the KC 300X Stage1 on recommendation of the KC Turbos crew and Help Center. I initially ordered the Stage2 but I drive a Manual ZF6. The Stage 1 spools quicker so I don't lose much boost between shifts.
The turbo is excellent and has exposed a small boost leak. This unit is a beast! The Billet Aluminum front cover, Hydra Chip, adrenaline HPOP, 160/30 injectors, S&B intake, bellowed up pipes and CNC oil lines make great supporting units for this turbo. It will take all the gears that I give it!!!!! I can run it up to 3000 rpm and still have boost!!!! Simply Worth Every Penny!! I have 540,200 miles on this truck all parts mentioned replaced within the last 300 miles. Looking for another 500K strong. KC turbos will go down in turbo history! Thanks Guys!!!!
This turbo worked out perfect in my truck could feel the difference in the performance
