2014 Cummins 6.7 after market Turbo recommendations?

[Healy]

Turbo is failing on my 14' 2500. Since I have to spend the $ regardless looking at upgrading to get more power. New to the diesel truck world and use the truck to haul horses so more power is never a bad thing. Thanks for any suggestions.

Turbo failing or actuator failing? Rare for the turbo to fail.
Really not worth going to a "bigger" turbo unless you can get the tuning/fueling to compliment it.
Also what are you goals? You could end up with something that has higher peak HP but is going to be a dog down low.

Lots to consider

You don't need more power, making more power puts additional stress on the driveline which was designed for the power you now have. What do you want, more power or reliability?

I would do a DDP Hooligan or Fleece Cheetah with a city diesel actuator. Might as well upgrade. Both should give a little more power as well as lower drive pressure and lower egts.

Making a modest amount of power gain doesn’t require turbo upgrades. Making big power requires many modifications over and above that one part.

And how is any of that going to fly in the great state of california?

If I knew I needed a turbo for the money Fleece Cheetah all the way.

I went with the Fleece Cheetah in my truck, at the recommendation of my diesel tech, and haven't regretted it. I don't know if it added much if any power but it sure enhanced the exhaust brake compared with the OEM turbo. On a stock 6.7 Cummins you may find increased performance, but mine had a lot junk iron fall off early on.
