I've looked a little into this effort, Borg Warner was turbo manufacture for 6.5. I hate to say it but start with a 6.5 if you can.....intake, exhaust manifold, and turbo. Stick with the original gear on 6.5. Vacuum or mechanical waste gate, injector pump and oil it's a mess to drive it all. I'll have more when I start conversion....I'm doing it for altitude in Denver Colorado to recover HP and torque....not increase HP....so I would love any info you find. Even the dog house has to be replaced. I'm just starting to buy parts now. They derated these engines for reliability. Down line drive stuff won't take much torque.....I would love to drop a 6.6 Durmax but ehhhhh...half shafts are limited. There is a current motor 6.5 and tranny with turbo on eBay I believe....save you some time. Then rebuild 6.2 for back up?
