Probably like my old 1990 cavalier. Whatever was in the parts bin when they changed stuff in 91 they just used what was left during the switchover
Motor was out of 13/14 for sure

Can you refresh my memory on your current turbo setup? Gen 1 turbine housing and vacuum-actuated wastegates mixed with 18+ bearings/wheels and ported compressor housing?The plan would be to send a set of Turbos to CRP to upgrade to Stage 5’s. It will probably take a while to get everything together, but wanted to start now.

Yup, Current set up is the Gen1 Turbine Housing, mated to the Gen2 Center Section and Compressor housing.Can you refresh my memory on your current turbo setup? Gen 1 turbine housing and vacuum-actuated wastegates mixed with 18+ bearings/wheels and ported compressor housing?
And the new setup would be all the same except larger CRP turbine(50mm exducer) and compressor(46mm inducer) wheels?
What do you know about the differences between the CRP stage 4, CRP stage 5, and FR-GT turbine wheels? Stage 4 fits stock housing, stage 5 needs turbine housing ported? And I'm brain farting on if the GT's have upgraded m247 wheels or stock turbine and different comp wheel?
Oh my....looks like Farmer John is back at the head of post production engineering! That is a pretty hokey fix. They really love the worm gear clamps, that's a fix for your rattling exhaust flex pipes too,@Blown F-150 Nothing quite like being a DIYer is there?
I've got to make a minor repair on my 1500 mile Exploder that is a Ford Authorized TSB repair that looks so Mickey Mouse you'll laugh.
That said, the Dealer's Tech will never need to touch my vehicle because we are DIYers. If you want to laugh read this TSB, you can skip to the end as there are pictures. You'll see what I mean by Mickey Mouse.
Mine's a 2021 but the problem persists beyond the dates of this TSB. I promise it will make you smile.
The seat moving is a bit disconcerting, isn't it? Drives me crazy, my wife doesn't even notice it.Oh my....looks like Farmer John is back at the head of post production engineering!

Good news for me though, I have that problem with mine and can now at least develop a fix for it...
Pretty much nothing, lol. Just got back (litterally 10 minutes ago) from a two week road trip in the ST.Whats new?
Right on dude! Thanks for sharingRMB motor has now hit 50,000 Km’s and been in the truck for almost 3 years. I can’t wait for parts to come in so I can fix the warped manifold and figure out what I can do for bigger turbos.

11.9l/100km 😱. You reset that driving downhill or something?!RMB motor has now hit 50,000 Km’s and been in the truck for almost 3 years. I can’t wait for parts to come in so I can fix the warped manifold and figure out what I can do for bigger turbos.

Lol, I did reset it when I left the house. I took the pic on the return trip from the dump. It’s actually not bad on gas if I only go 105km/h11.9l/100km. You reset that driving downhill or something?!
So jealous! I can’t break 13 at my very best doing 100!! Maybe it’s related to my boost and false knock issues somewhere down the line. Either way that’s awesome for our gen!Lol, I did reset it when I left the house. I took the pic on the return trip from the dump. It’s actually not bad on gas if I only go 105km/h
