This turbo features a 4\" ported housing with drilled anti-surge for better flow, a completely redesigned Gen 3 7x7 SXE style compressor wheel with extended tip technology and with upgraded aero to aid in quick spool, and a SXE style turbine wheel with a thicker shaft inside of completely redesigned compressor and turbine housings.\n\nThe Gen 3 KC300x features a .91 AR Turbine housing and a 0.70 AR compressor cover. Originally a 1.0 AR compressor cover, we changed it to a .70 AR cover with redesigned map groove, anti surge ring, volute shape and style with modern turbo technology. The turbine housing was previously available in .84 and 1.0ar; both are inefficient when compared to modern turbos. We took inspiration from the latest turbochargers in the market and applied their turbine housing design , flow path, volute shape, and material density to come up with our own 0.91AR turbine housing. This turbine housing was proven to spool up faster AND make more top end power when compared to either previous option.\n\nThe KC300x is a reliable journal bearing drop in turbo perfect for increasing your 7.3 Powerstroke's performance. This redesigned bearing housing and backing plate design to fit 200% LARGER thrust bearings and upgraded wider and taller journal bearings. Its upgraded steel thrust insert replaces the aluminum backing plate to keep expansion rates the same leading to more consistent turbocharger function. It's bearing housing has increase stability, backing plate stronger and cast into bearing housing integrated for improved rigidity reduces backing plate deflection and distortion under extreme heat and pressure \n\nWe spent years in R\u0026amp;D to bring the most drop in power to your truck! Not only does this new turbo design outperform anything else on the market, but it has also upgraded all weak points in the stock turbo, improving reliability at elevated HP levels. For larger than 205\/30s injectors, we recommend you check out our KC300x G3 Stage 2!\n\nSo what size is the new KC 300x Gen 3 Stage 1?  We are not going to tell you,  but I will tell you this turbo will outperform any other drop in turbo on the market guaranteed.  Better in every way and a perfect match from stock to 205\/30 injectors.  If you really HAVE TO KNOW the size for some reason then give us a call and we can go over sizing options on the phone. Powder Coating can take up to 3 weeks before it ships\n100% Drop In Turbo (no modifications required)\nDyno Proven Power Gains\nRedesigned Gen 3 7x7 SXE style compressor wheel with upgraded aero\nThick Shaft Gen 3 SXE style turbine wheel\nRedesigned quick spool 0.70AR Ported Compressor Cover\nImproved MAP Groove, Anti-Surge Ring, and Volute Shape\nRedesigned 0.91AR Turbine Housing with upgraded volute technology for Quicker Spool \u0026amp; More Top End Power\nSpools FASTER than the old 0.84AR and flows MORE air than the old 1.0AR due to this radical redesign\n200% Larger Thrust and Journal Bearings\nThicker turbine shaft to accommodate larger bearings and  higher boost and HP levels.  Stock shaft sizes can deflect and result in catastrophic failures\nRedesigned Bearing Housing with integrated cast iron backing plate for improved high speed stability by reducing deflection \nAdded Steel Thrust Insert to Reinforce oil slinger and piston seal Contact Areas \u0026amp; Eliminate Bearing Fatigue\nHigh Flow Non-EBPV outlet flange\nRedesigned Round-Top Wastegate Actuator for increased boost control\nComes with all gaskets and o-rings to install\nComes with newly upgraded 4\" intake boot with better fitment over previous designs","brand":"KC Turbos","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":63457249263985,"sku":"302676","price":1390.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0990\/4363\/9665\/files\/E99_Gen_3_Stage_1.jpg?v=1776375852","url":"https:\/\/valentinedieselperformance.com\/products\/new-gen-3-kc300x-stage-1-turbo-7-3-powerstroke-e99","provider":"Valentine Diesel Performance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
