Over the past 2 years Turbonetics has had a great deal of success with the drop-in Ford 7.3L Powerstroke bolt-on upgrade turbocharger in both journal and Ceramic Ball Bearing configurations. Turbonetics partnered with an outside supplier to develop this unique reverse rotation turbocharger but we have encountered certain performance limitations in the current aerodynamic package. As the request for higher power levels are received on a daily basis, the current design is simply not capable of supporting these requests and the decision has been made to focus on what Turbonetics does best - achieve the best forced induction performance results possible.



Turbonetics has been working on a stage 2 solution to cover the required power levels for the past year and our research and development team has completed a new stainless steel, investment cast, pedestal mounting system (TN part # 11284). This pedestal system allows for a variety of our Ceramic Ball Bearing turbochargers to be utilized, no-matter if you need 500HP from our popular HP-Series all the way up through our tractor pulling Mid-Frame series capable of delivering 900+ HP. It also a great platform to build from for those serious enthusiasts looking to convert to a compound system. This approach allows our customers to choose the appropriate turbocharger for their specific power requirements and can be upgraded to a larger unit at a later time if their performance needs go up.



With the completion and market readiness of the Ford 7.3L Stage 2 System Turbonetics will no longer produce the 11117-BB 7.3L drop-in upgrade turbocharger. Turbonetics will stand by our industry leading repair and warranty program for all current owners.
