Converting cab/chassis turbo?
I've got a 2012 cab/chassis truck and I was wondering what it would take to bring it up to the performance of the regular trucks? I know the turbo is different, so I would assume that at a minimum the turbo and ECM/programming would need to be changed.
Anyone gone down this road before? thanks!

When the dealer put the brand new motor, turbo and much more in my truck I asked them about putting the turbo that goes in the pick ups in my cab and chassis. They said they couldn't do it.

Vince, the EPA forbids the dealers from doing this unless they want to pay a big fine and be put out of business.

This thread is kinda a gong show, but some one "apparently" had a aftermarket turbo installed on their f550.
