The SPOOLOGIC SL-100-045 is a brand new performance upgrade turbo for 2015-2019 6.7L Powerstroke trucks. It’s built on the proven Garrett GT37/AVNT3788 journal-bearing platform — the same factory turbo on your truck — upgraded with a larger billet compressor wheel, larger turbine wheel, ceramic-coated hot side, your choice of compressor housing finish, and a stack of internal upgrades you don’t get on a factory drop-in. For 2017-2019 trucks this is a straight drop-in. For 2015-2016 trucks this is a light retrofit — Ford updated the pedestal between ’16 and ’17, and the SL-100-045 ships with the correct 17-19 style pedestal and coolant feed line so the conversion to the 17-19 platform is handled.

You keep your factory up-pipes, your factory down-pipe, your lower intake, your heat shield, and your existing turbo-to-intake boot — bolt this turbo onto the truck and go. Every SPOOLOGIC turbo is built brand new — never remanufactured — and backed by a 1-Year Limited Warranty.

⚠ CUSTOM TUNING IS REQUIRED — READ BEFORE YOU BUY

Custom tuning is required for the SL-100-045 — this is not optional. The Stage 2 is built on the same Garrett GT37/AVNT3788 platform as your OEM turbo, so it will physically bolt up and the truck will start — but the factory calibration is written for the factory wheels. It does not know how to drive the larger 65mm billet compressor, the bigger 66mm turbine, or the upgraded internals. Running this turbo on the stock tune will cause poor drivability, sluggish spool, VGT vane control issues, and can lead to turbo damage and a voided warranty.

You must have a custom tune written for this turbo by a qualified 6.7L Powerstroke tuner before the truck is driven. SPOOLOGIC does not supply, write, sell, or assist with custom tunes — line up your tuning shop before you order. The truck will not perform the way this turbo was designed to without proper tuning, and the warranty is void if the SL-100-045 is run on a stock tune.

2015-2016 Owners — Convert to the 17-19 Turbo, Done Right

If you have a 2015 or 2016 pickup, this turbo is also the cleanest way to convert your truck over to the more desirable 17-19 turbo. Ford updated the turbo and the pedestal for the 2017 model year, and a lot of 15-16 owners go to the trouble of sourcing a 17-19 turbo and the matching 17-19 pedestal separately to make the swap. The SL-100-045 already includes the correct 17-19 style pedestal and coolant feed line — one part number, the conversion is handled, no piecing it together yourself.

Choose Your Compressor Housing Finish

Use the dropdown above to select your compressor housing finish. The 65mm 7+7 billet compressor wheel, 66mm turbine wheel, ceramic-coated hot side, and 17-19 style pedestal are standard on every finish option — only the compressor housing look changes.

• Raw — bead-blasted satin natural aluminum finish; no coating, just clean bare metal
• Black — deep gloss black powder coat — baked-on, far more durable than paint, won’t chip from heat cycling, and won’t fade
• Red — high-gloss red powder coat — baked-on, far more durable than paint, won’t chip from heat cycling, and won’t fade

Upgraded Internals — Standard

Every SPOOLOGIC turbo is assembled with upgraded internal components that go beyond a basic factory-style replacement:

• Extreme duty journal bearings — premium bronze-alloy bearings machined to tighter tolerances with improved oil groove geometry, maintaining the precise oil film that keeps the turbo shaft centered at 100,000+ RPM — even under higher heat and shaft loads
• 360-degree thrust bearing — added strength and load capacity over the factory 270-degree bearing, better at handling boost-driven thrust loads
• Step gap seal rings — improved sealing performance, less blow-by past the CHRA
• High-speed VSR balancing — smooth, dependable operation and longer bearing life
• New VGT solenoid, unison ring, and vanes — required for proper variable-geometry operation, installed and ready to run

65/88/90mm 7+7 Billet Compressor Wheel

The SL-100-045 uses a 5-axis CNC-machined forged billet aluminum compressor wheel with a 65mm inducer — significantly more inlet area than the factory wheel for serious airflow gains. Same proven 7+7 geometry (seven full blades, seven splitters) with 90mm extended exducer tips to push the airflow harder on the back side.

• Inducer diameter: 65mm
• Exducer diameter: 88mm base / 90mm extended-tip outer diameter
• Blade count: 7+7 — seven full main blades with seven splitter blades
• Material: 5-axis CNC-machined forged billet aluminum

66/72.5mm Turbine Wheel

The Stage 2 runs a larger 66mm turbine exducer to keep up with the bigger compressor wheel and the higher exhaust gas flow that comes with serious tuning, larger injectors, and a stout lift pump. Matched and balanced to drive the Stage 2 compressor cleanly without choking off the top end.

• Turbine inducer: 72.5mm
• Turbine exducer: 66mm

Ceramic Coated Center Section, Turbine Housing & Pedestal

SPOOLOGIC ceramic coats the turbine housing, the center section (CHRA), and the pedestal on the SL-100-045. This isn’t high-temp paint — it’s a true thermal barrier rated for the 1,600°F+ surface temperatures a diesel turbine sees under sustained load. The real, measurable benefits:

• Drops turbine housing surface temps 33-50% — far less radiant heat dumped into the engine bay, which protects wiring harnesses, oil lines, hoses, and EGR components from long-term heat damage
• Reduces post-shutdown heat soak into the CHRA and bearing oil — the #1 cause of premature turbo failure is oil baking on the bearing journals after shutdown, and the coating interrupts the radiant feedback loop that causes it
• Retains exhaust energy in the gas stream — keeping heat in the exhaust where it belongs (driving the turbine wheel) instead of soaking into the housing
• Pedestal coating — the pedestal sits between the turbine housing and the block; coating it cuts the heat path into the engine valley
• Corrosion and thermal-fatigue resistant — cast iron scales, pits, and cracks over years of heat cycling; the ceramic barrier protects all three parts for the long haul

Power Support

The SL-100-045 is built to cleanly support up to ~650-700 rwhp when paired with proper tuning, fueling, and supporting modifications. This is the build sized for trucks running larger injectors, an upgraded lift pump, and serious tuning — not just a chip and a delete. Remember: a turbo doesn’t make power on its own — tuning and fueling make power, and the turbo’s job is to support what the engine is producing. The Stage 2 has the airflow headroom to stay ahead of an aggressive fuel system without surging, choking, or overspeeding.

Exhaust Brake Compatibility

The factory 6.7L Powerstroke exhaust brake function is retained. The journal-bearing platform uses the same VGT vane closure mechanism as the factory turbo, so the truck’s OEM exhaust brake will continue to function as designed when paired with a tune that supports it.
