What type of turbo do you want a VGT which is what factory is or a mechanical tubo which you would have to tune for?

If you don’t use the exhaust break much and are going to keep the truck a while then go with mechanical turbo. 64-67mm borg- way more reliable

Likely so. Stock fuel and trans is fine- more to disable the codes that would be associated with the VGT not being plugged in

If it is the actuator they are very simple and about $650 I think. All you gotta do is take down the passenger side fender liner and take the unscrew the actuator from the turbo and install the new. I think they are tamperbroof screws

I just changed mine out. 2014 2500. Got the actuator directly from local Cummins dealer. Paid $366 for it. Local Ram dealer wanted $3100 . Local diesel parts and repair shop wanted $1100. Took my wheel liner out 3 days beforehand and sprayed lower left bolt that is exposed with PB Blaster 2-3 times a day. Not a bad job to do. Does have to calibrated prior and after installing.
