1999-2003 Powerstroke KC300x G3 Stage 1 Turbocharger (302523)

Fits

 Supports: Up to 205cc/30% Injectors

KC Turbos 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 their 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.

The KC300x is a reliable journal-bearing drop in turbo perfect for increasing your 7.3 Powerstroke's performance. 

KC Turbos spent years in R&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. 

So what size is the new KC 300x gen 3 stage 1?  KC Turbos  isn't going to tell you,  but they do say 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.

EXHAUST BRAKES:  KC Turbos gets asked a lot about exhaust brakes and if they work with KC Turbos.  They 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.  It will be up to the customer to verify fitment and functionality.
