The 2016+ 2.8L Stealth DT44 Turbo is the most versatile turbo upgrade available for the LWN. This turbo fits like a stock OEM turbocharger, it just runs better in every way! The custom, oversized Stealth Nozzle Ring and oversized turbine wheel mean you can get on top of the turbo and make power quickly while the custom billet compressor wheel can supply 20% more airflow than stock.
The DT44 utilizes your factory actuator. This component is easy to access and can be swapped onto your new DT44 Turbocharger with simple tools and basic mechanical skills.

The factory MAP sensor on the LWN 2.8L Duramax reads up to 29 psi (gauge) or 45psi (ambient). A 2.8L running DuramaxTuner's custom EFILive tuning will command about 28 psi in the Sport Tune depending on altitude and temperature. That means your truck is at the limit of the MAP sensor with just tuning. If you want to make more power than a 'tune-only' truck and you care about driveability, you need an upgraded MAP sensor.
A DT44 truck can be tuned without an upgraded MAP sensor to make more power than a stock turbo. However, it's dangerous. You will be relying on a custom tuner to safely set the min or max vane table in such a way as to keep the turbo safe. Furthermore, you will see no more than the 29 psi of boost reported on electronic gauges.
Boost leaks can kill diesel engines. They cause higher EGTs, decrease your power, and lower fuel economy. Properly being able to test your entire charged air system is essential to getting peak performance and longevity out of your diesel engine. Charged air systems include everywhere from the turbocharger to the intake manifold. Your intercooler system, Exhaust Gas Recirculation components, and even the Turbocharger compressor cover can all develop boost leaks. This boost tester is exactly what you need if you work on diesel trucks regularly or just want to check the condition of your engine's charge system. Here's what you can get:
