Im working on an automotive application. More specifically my project is to fabricate a turbo from a 6.0L ford diesel to fit onto a 7.3L Diesel. Fabricating is no problem for me. What i need help on is this: the 6.0L turbo is a VGT turbo, meaning it has vanes that change when desired by the computer. The turbo has a solenoid which is controlled by a PWM signal and uses oil pressure in the turbo to adjust.
Im in need of a controller that uses a few sensor inputs such as crank/rpm, exhaust backpressure, cooant temp, throttle position, and map/boost. It will use those inputs to calculate engine load and open or close the turbo vanes as desired.
The 6.0 turbo is a much superior design over the 7.3 and widely available. There is a market for a product like this not only for the 7.3 diesel guys looking to upgrade performance, but for other VGT turbos also used on chevy and dodges. Im not looking just to have this for myself on my truck, but once perfected to produce and sell these as part of a kit or even available by themselves. VGT turbos are the new thing, they offer much better overall performance than a conventional turbo and many diesel guys will be looking for a way to add these to an older truck.
Please email me or message me for further discussion.
Thanks, Russ
