With respect, unless you owned and drove a turbo 7.3, you are sorely mistaken. Or if you had one and it was a dog, then you didn't have it setup right. My 92 with the Banks was limited by the turbine inlet temp of 1450F, the turbine wheel begins to melt at 1700F. The kit has a temp and pressure gauge pair, which can be seen in the Banks website pic of the turbo kit. I could boost to at least 8PSI while flirting with the temp limit. I think the boost limit valve was set at 10.5PSI, but I could be wrong, it's been a long time.
I would take a 7.3 with a turbo over pretty much anything other than a newer Cummins with turbo of the 2003 vintage, which is a completely newer design setup, and a fine puller.
I'm guessing that not many people ponied up for the Banks turbo. It's pricey but woke up the engine quite a bit.
