3796006 | Genuine Cummins® Turbocharger Kit HE351VE

1. Increase Engine Power

   • More air + more fuel = more combustion = higher horsepower and torque.

2. Improve Fuel Efficiency

   • A smaller, turbocharged engine can produce the same power as a larger naturally aspirated engine, often using less fuel under normal conditions.

3. Reduce Emissions

   • Efficient combustion leads to lower exhaust emissions.

4. Better High-Altitude Performance

   • At high altitudes, air is thinner. A turbocharger compresses air, maintaining engine power.

1. Loss of Engine Power

Reduced acceleration or sluggish performance.
Engine may struggle under load because the turbo is not providing the required boost.

2. Excessive Exhaust Smoke

Blue smoke: Burning oil inside the turbo.
Black smoke: Too much fuel, not enough compressed air due to turbo failure.

3. Unusual Noises

Whining, whistling, or grinding sounds from the turbo area.
Could indicate worn bearings or damaged turbine/compressor blades.

4. Oil Leaks

Oil may leak around the turbo or into the intake/exhaust system.
Can lead to low oil levels and turbo damage.

5. Check Engine Light / Diagnostic Codes

ECM may detect boost pressure problems or sensor malfunctions.
Common codes: P0299 (underboost), P0234 (overboost).

6. Poor Fuel Efficiency

Engine struggles to maintain power, causing higher fuel consumption.

7. Turbo Lag or Slow Boost

Delay in boost delivery or inconsistent boost pressure during acceleration.
