Garrett turbo?

Hello FTE. First off, thank you all for the abundance of knowledge that is shared here. I have been lurking here since I bought my truck a couple of months ago, and I have already learned so much. My truck is a 2001 F-350 CC LWB SRW. I am getting ready to replace my leaky up pipes and was looking around at them today and noticed something that I can't believe I hadn't before. On the side of my turbo, in big letters, it says "Garrett." On the other side, it says "1.00 A/R." Did someone put a 38R in my truck? Here is a picture:



Thanks for any info you can give!

EDIT: So the picture isn't showing up, but I put it in my gallery here: Ford Truck Enthusiasts Forums - JacksonJL's Album: Garrett Turbo? - Picture

That sure is a Garrett, but it is a stock Garrett. Welcome to FTE.

Is it any better than the Ford stock turbo? Should I still consider putting a WW in it?

That is a stock Ford turbo. If you are getting turbo surge, the WW will help with that.

OK thanks for the info. I guess I'll have to leave that one on the wish list for now.

There is still a lot of power you can get even with the stock turbo. Get the supporting mods done first, then think about the turbo.

I'm wondering though, you mentioned a 1.0 exhaust housing, I thought the stock exhaust housings were .84 or something, huh?? My 38R has the 1.0 housing..

Mike, the stock turbo has a 1.0 intake housing with a .84 exhaust. 1.0 is stamped on the intake housing.

His picture is the stock turbo, and the stock turbos have a 1.0 compressor housing, and a .84 exhaust housing. The 1.0 that he saw stamped is in reference to the compressor housing.

But yes, the 38r has a 1.0 exhaust housing. In addition, the exhaust housings for the stock turbo and 38r are interchangeable. The compressor housings are not, due to the larger compressor wheel on the 38r.

Hope that clarifies a bit.

I thought the exhaust wheels were slightly different between the 38r & stocker. Or is that just with the van turbo & 1.15 a/r housing?

Van turbo has a different exhaust wheel. I asked the same thing a while back, and finally found out that the 38R uses the same turbine wheel as the stocker, but the van turbo is slightly different.
