DT44 Turbocharger 2.8L Duramax LWN

The Stealth DT44 Turbo is an upgraded direct replacement turbocharger specifically designed for 2016-2022 Chevrolet and GMC Colorado and Canyon models featuring the 2.8L Duramax LWN engine. This performance turbocharger offers significant improvements over the OEM unit, incorporating a custom oversized turbine wheel and nozzle ring, along with a custom billet compressor wheel that delivers 20% more airflow than stock. The integration of Calibrated Power's exclusive HFV (High Flow Vane) technology ensures superior high-load efficiency and maintains quick throttle response. Engineered for enhanced durability and performance, the DT44 features thicker compressor wheel blades to prevent the common OEM blade folding issue. It also utilizes a quick-response journal bearing center section and comes with a 12-month warranty. This turbo is a brand-new part, requiring no core exchange. For optimal performance and to safely achieve higher power levels, an upgraded MAP sensor is recommended, especially if aiming for the maximum potential of 280 HP. While the DT44 can be tuned for increased power without an upgraded MAP sensor, it is considered dangerous and limits boost reporting. The factory actuator is utilized and can be swapped onto the new turbo with basic tools. This turbo is an ideal upgrade for those seeking increased peak power potential without requiring a full engine build, or for those needing a reliable, upgraded replacement for a failed stock turbo. It is particularly beneficial for towing applications and drivers who prioritize both performance and excellent street manners.
