Product Overview
The Sinister Diesel Pitbull Series® Turbocharger for the 2003–2007 5.9L Cummins delivers OEM fitment with true performance gains. Externally stock in appearance, this turbocharger is anything but ordinary—it’s built for improved airflow, durability, and reliability.
Equipped with an upgraded 63mm Billet Blade Technology compressor wheel and slim-nose profile, this turbo enhances airflow and reduces backpressure, resulting in faster spool-up, stronger torque, and lower EGTs without sacrificing drivability.
For 2004.5–2007 trucks, the Pitbull Turbo also includes a performance actuator calibrated to 38 PSI (versus the factory’s 24 PSI) and a new air control valve for stable boost control. Whether you tow, daily drive, or chase power, this turbo delivers the balanced performance and reliability your Cummins deserves—all in a true bolt-on package.
Why OEM Location Matters
Unlike complicated conversion kits, the Pitbull Series® Turbo is designed as a direct drop-in replacement. It uses your stock mounting points, oil lines, and exhaust connections—making installation quick, simple, and hassle-free while providing a major upgrade in airflow and reliability.
