I am one of the 1st gen guys, and I mounted a WH1C on my truck yesterday, and was wondering if anyone here has ran the W with the Stage IV upgrade succesfully up to 400HP with reasonable EGT's, and smoke. My goal is 400 W/O drugs, and the most torque possible.
Whats yer story?? lol I am just trying to deside as to weather or not to dump the 325 in a compressor housing or just pinch pennys for a schwitzer, or the like. Thanks!

Yes there is a guy over on the Cummins Forum that has this set up I think his name is Northslope? I was also considering doing this mod but it is limitedto under 400 hp,he likes it though. I considered it because I was told this upgrade is an afternoon job and requires no machine work. Let me know how you like it if you go this route.....

After stripping the housings down, I can pull the compressor and mount it back on in under 10 minutes. As for the compressor wheel, at least for me, all I have to do is remove a clamp, rotate the DP outta the way, and put a wrench on the other end of the shaft nut. Probably 45 minute job. We'll see what route I need to go, Im kind of in a bind, I really need a compressor housing even if its stock, but I dont want to dump 325 in something that just isnt going to be adequite. But once I hit 400HP, the big guns are comming out, twins, big injectors.......

I have the Stage III kit on mine, and it keeps my max EGTs down to about 1400. That number is empty and rodding on it. Sledpulling with this combo nets me about 1600. When towing the EGTs are very controllable. Granted the most I've towed with this setup is about 9,000 lbs, but still the turbo did a great job keeping things cool. I've never run the dyno but judging off of similar setups I should be around 360HP or so.

Hey Matt was this a real easy install??
