- Your stock charger is bad, so getting a larger turbo is the only option, right? Hold tight. There are quite a few things to talk about here. Spool, horsepower goals, everyday drive-ability, etc.
Nick, head honcho at Duramaxtuner.com, walks you through what to consider when making your stock replacement turbo purchase on your 5.9L Cummins. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
These guys are at the top of their game... I was a reseller for them and installer back at my old job
Top-notch advice right here. 👍
Well said Nick always the best advice . You guys know your shit. Well tested real life stuff . This is why I run your tunes . Someday I will be the one getting a 64mm .
Wow I have looked for information for about 3 years now on my 3rd gen maybe I’m just not that bright until I ran across one of your videos it was the difference between Day and knight sorry for sounding creepy thanks you have been a Great bunch of information to my problems on my truck
Glad it helped!
All good points to consider!!!
Shout out from hawaii
Very informative and straight forward
Keep um coming🤙🏽
Ah, OK I'm down with that
Now i finally know where to start.
Yea I have these issues because I wanted the best of both worlds. I got a 2011 powerstroke with a 72 ughhhh it sucks to tow with.
Thanx for answering all my boomer questions you guys are super cool
Love how you explain the budget, I’m just window shopping lol. Seriously though.
@MadebyAmerica1981Not to be a devil's advocate but they are $500 OFF this month (November 2023).
@@Duramaxtuner wish I can buy that but won’t be probably until next year before I can do anything. Thank you
got over 600,000 miles on my 03. all original minus exhaust and intake.
What type of fuel economy are you getting? I only pull 13.4mpg stock truck, and that’s not towing, with being very light footed driver. Mainly city
@@davelehti4000I get about 15~ stock 03 as well
To me the best turbo is a 64 MM for a stock truck and it has enough room to add a few parts to get a good horse power bump . I just would like to have 400 hp and that’s not much with it being a HO 325 from factory and it’s not enough to shorten the life of your motor and it’s still good 500 K . I think what do you think ?
It really depends on the goal of the truck, but for a nice daily driver with some get-up, and towing some. The 64mm is perfect.
It’s definitely not something I need 850 horsepower truck, but you only live once!!!
If I replace my turbo and Iam not looking for big power . All I want is a nice turbo 64mm would be all I need and only up grade I have is a Fleece in tank lift pump and I bought this dullay new so I know it hasn’t been beat on. If ATS made a stand a lone variable geometry with a controller would be great only if they can make it hold up to keep soot off the moving vanes and not lock up the vanes I would be on that big time because I need the braking so let me know if you have some way to keep this from happening. My truck has 152K on the clock and I have factory size tires and we were getting ready to haul our Bigfoot truck to Alaska pulling a 20’ out board jet with a 200 hp behind it. I bought a 36” truss hitch so I could pull y boat. So to get ready for this 3 month trip to Alaska Canada and the Artic ocean so even though I didn’t need brakes still had over half the brake pads and I did my front end too and all ball joints and new neoprene track bar bushings and hub bearing and u-joints and did the rears too brakes and new hardware for parking brakes and shoes to. And a Big Wig rear sway bars and 5100 Bisteins schools and on board air and tank and a air Chuck and curly hose with gauge on the Handel to air up tires and 7000 lb air bags and a dc to dc charger to charge my 2- 100 amp hour lithium batteries so we have got of spare parts for repairs on the road and I wanted a 2005 camper to match my 2005 long bed dullay 4 door 6 speed manual and manual 4x4 selector. So in a few months we will be on our way on our dream trip of our lives and everybody told us no your truck is too old but a stay up on all of my service and this has been a trouble free truck never had any problems and I forgot to say I have 3 fuel filters and first one is a big 5 micron water separator then a big 2 micron cat filter and the stock filter is a 5 micron carriage Balwin and this filter set up on this truck 6 months after I bought it and the stock filters will be good to 300k with this filtration system . So what do you think Wade am I missing something let me know what you think.
Keeping other peoples cars clean is not priority number one lmao. The gas in insane tho hes right i could have two trucks with what i spend on my truck and its gas bill for a month. Probably spending 600 a month in gas and 9-11 mpg. I need a pruis
It is crazy for sure!
I have a stock 05 Dodge 3500 4x4 diesel 6 speed manual long bed dullay and haul a large truck camper and 5 th wheel and was told a 64 mm turbo and this 5.9 is a HO motor 325 ho so what would you recommend an it’s 152K still has factory injectors water pump alternator fan and even still the intercooler that’s plastic and no problems so what would you recommend for turbo and going to put bigger sticks in it and no runner ?
S464 vs S467 on a 2006 5.9 stockish truck.
Do a video on ur opinion of the epa cracking down. I know you guys do intact emissions stuff but would like to hear ur opinion of the 07 and older stuff.
Check out @Diesel Performance Podcast. We just did an episode about it.
I have a 97 cummins 12v 4x4 and I want to run a twin compound turbos with the stock turbo.
Top notch
Is the silencer ring still utilized on the stealth 64? I've narrowed my choices down to the stealth 64 and the pdd 362 sxe .7 or .8 A/R for an 05 nv5600 srw and Calibrated power MM3 tuning. I don't have experience with either one on a 3rd gen. Only with a PDD 362 sxe .7 on an 01' auto. Love the podcast! I'm looking to buy a turbo and tuning before the end of the year. Thank you.
Yes it is.
I subscribed Nicholas
Can we still buy these and put them on the trucks with the new EPA crack down
Jonathan Smith CARB certs in progress on these. We’re confident they’ll pass. Short answer:Yes
I have a 06 dodge 3500 with a 5in turbo back exhaust and 6 manual, I plan to tow with it and would like to get a better turbo but get an exhaust brake for it.
What should I look for? Am I better off sticking to a stock turbo or is there any replacement turbo recommendations for me that will allow me to use a exhaust brake?
I'm looking into a banks or pacbrake
04 5.9 6 speed here also. im in same boat looking into brake as well
Is it ok to pull out the silencer ring? I like the whistle
We do not suggest it.
I have a 2006 Dodge Ram 3500 dually and I want to build it for towing so what would you suggest?
I’ve added Banks 4” exhaust, Intercooler, exhaust brake w/cbc smartlock, Ram Air, Six-Gun Tuner, 2 iDash, Air Dog Fuel pump
You pretty much have it down to a great tow rig. We'd say a turbo, like our Stealth 64. Lower EGTs, quick spool. Designed for towing and daily driving.
I have a 05' 5.9 with a 6 speed g56. I have about 2k lbs on my flatbed at all times (I'm a rig welder). I pull a 5k lbs travel trailer now but upgrading to a 10k lbs 5th wheel. Everything is stock, should I upgrade the turbo? I want to keep it close to stock I'm not trying to tune it just get the best performance for longevity. Also what else would I need to upgrade? Just the intercooler? Thanks for any input.
Give us a call and lets talk about your options. 815-568-7920.
I'm in this scenario as well. Did you call and get any suggestions?
So I just bought a 04 dually 6 speed, looking for a turbo upgrade for heavy towing. Getting into this hotshot business. Whats a good turbo, I read reviews on the stealth 64 but 1,700 dollars is steep price. I also want a heavier duty clutch kit
Give us. call, 815-568-7920.
What about heat tow up mountain?
@matthewchase2512 Both the Stealth 64 and the Stealth 67 provide excellent EGT management. Due to the larger 10-blade turbine that we use you will experience lower EGTs in high-load scenarios like towing up a steep mountain. All of our HE351/341cw Stealth turbos also come with our upgraded Beast Wheel™ which is not only a larger 10-blade wheel but also comes with 40% thicker blades than the stock turbine does. This will provide even more protection against excessive EGTs so if you do find yourself creeping into the 1400-1500˚ range you won't instantly be at risk of melting your turbine.
Question for you. I have a 2005 5.9 Dodge 3500 Ram. I have installed an Edge tuner, Gates cold air intake, a Gates intercooler with a Monster Ram air horn, and a Gates 4 " exhaust system. Also had new injectors about 30 K ago 0n a motor that now has 110k on the clock. Injectors went bad from sitting. I believe the injectors are a stock type replacement. I want to install a new turbo in this vehicle. I tow a 32 foot travel trailer, a 24 foot offshore boat and stock trailer. Truck is not a daily driver. Want more power but also want a dependable solid running truck. What would you suggest for a turbo? Thanks for your time
Hi Robert, thanks for reaching out. It comes down to HP goals and how you use your diesel truck. If you want to add a little more power and you tow often, our Stealth 64 is perfect for you. If you plan on going up to 800 HP in your build, our Stealth 67G2 is the ticket.
Are these legal in California?
Question, I have a 07 5.9 Cummins with a AFE cold air intake, 5" exhaust from the turbo back, pedal commander, and a fuel performance. What turbo would you suggest ? Kurt
Stealth 64 and upgrade to custom tuning. Throw the pedal fooler in the trash and enjoy the best running Cummins you'll ever drive.
I honestly don't care for the tuners just because I do don't hot rod it like most kids, I mostly use it for towing my 37.5 ft. Toy Hauler and traveling
They dont have to be a hot rod tunes. Im sure they can do just a single tune say 30-40 horse over stock and with the S64 that Cummins will feel it can town the White House@@gta4200
Hey nick great info. Question
I have a duramax 2.5 canyon with your tuner when I use the tow tune should I still use the factory two haul mode also. Thx. Sorry I know it doesn’t have anything to do with this video. Still awesome info. Thx .....Paul
I would recommend using tow haul still because it changes the shift scedual and when the torque converter locks up which is important for towing
Tow haul is for the transmission settings. We definitely use tow-haul mode whenever there is a trailer hooked up.
Yes. Why not?
What would be the best way to start modding an 03 5.9 for towing? It’s the 250hp cummins and 250k miles with alittle turbo play. Want to do injectors and turbo for more power but still tow 10-12k. Trans is getting done soon with single disc and billet shafts.
04.5 here, chose a Banks Ram-Air intake with the air scoop under the bumper, ATS pulse flow 2-piece exhaust manifold, Diamond Eye muffler delete, and stealth 64 turbo. It’ll be a solid and reliable setup for just about every application.
@@robertbrotherton1375 what if you still want to be fairly quiet? I don’t want to straight pipe, I feel the stock setup is loud enough. Though I want to upgrade to 4” exhaust, just want quiet (well as quiet as an 02 5.9 can be).
@@davelehti4000 if you want to still keep it fairly quiet, just leave off the muffler delete and go with the rest of that. Sure, you’ll sacrifice some low end torque and add a bit to your EGTs, but it’s still a great setup, and also without the muffler delete you’d really get to enjoy the turbo sound with a medium sized single and a ram-air intake.
I’m looking to make around 600 whp thinking either a cheetah turbo or a aurora 4000 I drive a 06 6spd 5.9 makes around high 4s low 5s rn on just fuel and tuning what would be the better option
Our 3rd Gen Stealth 64 Turbo would be a great option for you.
I need turbo charger for more power
Where are you located? I am near Salt Lake City Utah. Is your service an option? I just found out my 2004 ram Needs a new turbo charger according to the mechanic.
We are in Northen IL and we do have a full service shop here. 815-568-7920
Stockish turbo
Is the HY35w Type D a good turbo charger?
Here is what you need: duramaxtuner.com/turbo-chargers/cummins-5-9l-hy35-stealth-60-turbo-1994-2002.html
So what tune should I run on my lly 05 now?
Stock trans or built?
@@Duramaxtuner I have a stock transmission, I don't do any towing, heavy loads now and then in the bed that's it.

Hey Nick, what is your take on the EPA stuff going on?
Emission friendly tunes are the new in thing ya know. Lol.
Its bull! Tired of randomly appointed agencies making laws that they aren't even qualified for. Earths freezing wait its heating up wait climate change. Wait we are all doomed in 12 years wait they've been saying this for 30+ years!
5.9 doesn’t have “emissions” like egr, dpf and others so I’m quite curious as well as to what is happening with tuning for these trucks
@@dylan_24v The 04.5+ 5.9 models have in-cylinder egr and a piston bowl that allegedly holds more exhaust in through the next cycle. They also have catalytic converters. 03-04 5.9's are basically the same engine without either (different cam profile and injector spray/piston bowl). Good luck finding a 2003-2004 305 ho cummins that isn't worn out though.
We have been doing all emissions equipped tuning for more than 7 years. So nothing new for us. @Clay, not sure what all you are referring to there but I'm sure it's a debate we can't win.
Stock trans
Hey Nick what your take on compounds turbo set for towing and everyday driving
Victor M: Expensive but tough to beat for dual purpose use. Heavier towing and high altitude- twins shine.
