It will " re-learn" without this. It will just take a little longer. These steps just get it there quicker.

I really need to do my turbo as well, but I haven't done one yet. So I am little intimidated right now. Curt's05, Where did you pick up your turbo from? and did you just get the stock replacement?

Did you find the whole replacing the turbo a difficult process?

This is where I got mine from at a good price.
Garrett 772441-5001s PowerMax Turbo 04-07 6.0L
And this is what I used to put it in, it helped a LOT.

eman588g, i bought mine from the same place as nice work truck. It takes about 2 hrs the first time, 1 hr after that. the hardest part was the bolt at the back of the pedestal. I used a gear wench with a flex head. I didn't relearn the turbo, i am using custom tunes & told i wouldn't have to.
