I think a good place to start is what is your budget? and also what kind of aftermarket parts do you have on the sled now?

Check these guys out, they can turbo or nos any sled with full complete kits, intercooler, pipes, fittings, etc etc etc
Even a boost gauge!
big time HP if you want it!!

I have heard good things about Boondockers Turbo systems that might be a good place to start. I would call them up there number is 877-522-7805 that way at least you are going to get a idea of the money you would be looking at as well as the HP gains you will make. If you sled is stock there is a lot of things besides a turbo you can do to get a lot of performance gains out of your F7. Keep me posted on what you find out

 

[kccats]

Well with about $4000 you can get started!

 

[mr.deeds]

What type of fuel do you want to run? If you want to run pump gas then boondocker is a good choice... but if you run race fuel then i think their are better companies to consider. Also, (this shows that i know nothing about F series sleds... only Ms) is your sled efi? If not i would think twice... i have been around a couple of carburated sleds with a turbo... and they were nothing but trouble.

I just checked and to turbo mine (09 M8) and do all the clutching it came in at $5100.

 

[mbridgs2]

are you looking to buy one or to build your own turbo system? and if its a carb sled and you really want a turbo have someone do it for you but if its a efi and you work with diesels then you could do it yourself with some time a lot of research and i would go with a sab turbo they seem to spool pretty fast. sortuve off topic but my friend just bought a v10 ford and swaped the motor for a cummins 12v twin turboed that thing has some power and boy does it roal coal

make sure to keep us all updated with pic.s if u go threw with this

 

[jordandakota]

First off, SICK Cummins. Second, putting a turbo on an F7 is a bit of overkill IMO..haha. I don't know a whole lot about turbo's on anything, but I would try a smaller one that would spool up fast to minimize lag. You aren't going to want any turbo lag on a sled, especially if you're running up in the mountains where getting into the power right now and in a couple seconds makes the difference between not getting stuck and getting yourself buried.

Fall Project

One of my guys did his 800, he has been out twice on it so far. It rips. I have been after him to get me some details to post a thread on how he did it, but no luck so far.

 

[94cummins12v]

well i am a diesel mechanic so i can get a turbo for next to nothing of any size and build all my pipeing and intercooler what would be good sizes to start with

 

[loudpipe]

a turbo from a small cat or perkins engine would probably work

 

[jwaldmann89]

Please keep us updated with pictures and such

 

[94cummins12v]

well i have a wh1c off a stock cummins 12v but am affraod its to damn big

 

[musicfreako]

I'd like to see what your Cummins would do next to my Duramax

What kinda torque do you put out? I'm a diesel tech also...

 

[94cummins12v]

last dyno was at 511hp-1027tq

 

[musicfreako]

SA-WEEET!!! I love it. Now that's real power. When you can double you horsepower with torque!!

 

[94cummins12v]

[94cummins12v]
