Hc1..
I got lucky with this, picked it up for a awesome price.. some putting some $$ back in to her isn't a big deal
Good pic! That means its an exhaust housing swap on the factory turbo. I'm not familiar with the aftermarket offerings, but its could very well be a WH1C/HX35 12cm ex housing swapped on there.

Good! Probably a 12 or 14cm (seem the most common). I have the stock HX35 12cm w/g housing on mine. I love it!

Makes me want more fuel pressure and/or timing

There will be number on the back side of the exhaust housing. More then likely they will be upside down as well. Can be difficult to read...but if you can snap a pic, then rotate and flip the pic you might be able to make out the number. I've done it the hard way before...small mirror and a flash light.

Welcome to the board...and a beauty of a truck!! $2500 for that...you stole it!! Did you buy a lottery ticket yet?

I'm very interested in the air ride seats. If you could post a make and model of those I'd appreciate it. Also a couple more pics of how their mounted.

It may have an H1C compressor housing but I can clearly see a wastegate actuator and a wastegated turbine housing in your previous pics. A previous owner may have installed it. Banks marketed a product called Quick Spool for these trucks that was a Holset 14cm wastegated turbine housing and one of their Big Head actuators. I have one for my truck. I can get the casting number off of the turbine housing for you if want to try to identify what you have. Factory H series Holset turbo chargers did not have wastegates. The W in WH1C was for wastegated chargers.

Yes I'll snap some pictures in a few hours. The guy just bought a new ram 6.7 and this truck was sitting, he said they only drove it less than 2k a year or less... no it on to clean the **** dog hair out lol, not to mention this was a garage kept truck hints why the clear coat is still new and no oil leaks

Thank you for the info, I'll look in a few hours

The only thing I can make out is the holset on the housing.. the rest of the numbers are very rusty
