Adding a 07 turbo to a 05 can it be done???

Hi guys i have a queston? Can it or is it possible to take a new holeset turbo with the exaust break and make it work on a 5.9 from what i understand the new turbo includes the break and some other upgrades. I have a friend that wants to put twins on his new 07 and will sell me his stocker. Has anyone heard of this yet?? Thanks for any input.

If you're buying for the exhaust brake, no go. You have an '05 48re and it won't take a EB like the '06 and above.

Is the EB what you really want?? If so, better to contact PacBrake and discuss their setup for your truck.
