Markie Man Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 So my 4v e6 350 needs a turbo, and I figure that turbocharger technology has come a good ways since '85, so a newer model charger the same size aught to preform better, not? So I have access to a remack s400s069 supposably for a etech EM7. Am I way off my rocker and overthinking this or will this be an improvement for the old girl? If not, any suggestions? was also looking at a s300s106. Thanks in advance for your input. Glendon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fastduramax Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 Good luck pal, upgrading the turbo on the E6 350 is a question I've seen asked many times on this site, it is highly classified information but if you do get a manufacturer and part# please share and protect your wife and children 🙄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Mack Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 can he use a Schwitzer S400 SO41? just curious... I see them on E-7's... I am not a guy that knows turbo specs.. so if you need to get technical, I will just watch and maybe learn something... jojo 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 I am thinking a turbo shop could probably help you that’s all I got good luck…. Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark T Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 I don't know about now, but D & W in Auburn NY used to be a good place to look into what you're try'n to do. At this point though ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hans Remmers Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 I'd say you need to measure your intake inducer size and compressor and turbine sizes and reference them to the numbers you're looking it. I dealt with D&W buying our one 82mm and when I said I needed to order a smaller wastegate-less turbine housing they were not very enthused. I'm no expert by any means, I get my numbers from our guy doing ecm tuning. I wouldn't change much if you're not running any extra fuel over stock. Keep in mind if you go much bigger on the turbine side it will give it lag and make it long winded. I've had quite a few newer Borg Warner 78mm 410sx's blow the guts out from overspeeding on 3406e and C15's. There's always a degree of risk changing turbos and adding power.

mowerman Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 Ya that’s my exact opinion… knowing nothing about matching them these big engine repairs are a furtune and no I would not take a chance unless absolutely sure … Oooooooooooo by the way very good advice and response Bob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John3406 Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Holset hx50. 3580251. You have to weld a flange on it to match the elbow going to the charge air cooler. Runs great. Had one on mine at least 150 thousand miles 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is another one: https://www.turbochargerpros.com/buynow/40-30842_HO Says out of stock (go figure) but there seems to be a lot of variation in price on these things. It also says that they are actual part numbers for Mack E6 engines so it may or may not be an upgrade. I have no clue but I found them pretty easily via the Google machine.....

It was definitely an upgrade compared to the factory turbo. With fuel plate ground and slid all the way forward it runs strong. Spools fast and as long as you keep the manifold pressure up the egts never get high Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fastduramax Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Thanks John, Im guessing your pump is a Robert Bosch ? Mine is an AMBAC I don't think the ground plate mod applies to Ambac ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
