    recently had a turbo go bad, due to a head gasket that had went bad prior. Anyways, I’m looking for a non-VGT direct bolt turbo. Similar to the 12.7 turbo swap. But will bolt right in place of my 2006 14L 60 series manifold. Do they make an animal? I already have an ECU programmed for this. I know ill have other stuff I Have to do. I plan on deleting egg/cooler. ECU its been deleted etc.
    Thank you,

    A more descriptive thread title might garner more relevant attention.

    This is the turbo most switch to on the 14L, but it does require changing the exhaust manifold. I don't know of any options other than the VGT that bolt to the VGT manifold flange.

    That 171702 is a good turbo that's what I had on my 14L DD. It's cheap too. I think you can still get them for about $800. Be careful not to surge it :)
