hey greg - no need to remove the engine cover or anything else, this is a plug and play upgrade

For 90% of ecoboost F150 modders, these new K03/K04 turbos make more sense... simple plug and play bolt-ons (total sleeper). Geno is proving an excellent match for 100% stock fuel system on the stock Wastegate springs. You can install stiffer wg's and run these K03/04s out of fuel.. whereas EFR is a hardcore aftermarket turbo kit and makes 500whp detuned on low boost..

1. New compressor wheels for stock K03 turbines. Suitable with stock fuel system.
2. Replacement EFR turbos. Power beyond the stock fuel system.

How much power do the modified K03 turbos make?

Looks like I want to hold off purchasing anything yet because all the hot and cold side piping is different between the two systems. Only common part is the intercooler core (not piping) and cat back exhaust.
thanks! thats awesome you joined this site just to post here in response:

-the compressor wheel upgrade was scrapped, we will no longer offer this service due to the high cost of remanufacturing the turbos on a HSCB (high speed core balancer). I know there are guys successfully using low speed balancers but that is a significant compromise. As a result we are only offering brand new upgrade turbos

-we have the EFR6258 turbos making 507whp at low boost, maxxed out the fuel system. This is the way to go for guys that want big power

-EFR uses different manifolds, turbos, upper downpipe adaptor, and hotside charge pipes. It uses the same intercooler, cold pipe, y pipe, exhaust and intake airbox

heres a brief fueling update:
-we had the meth injection working but disabled it for now.
-GDI injectors being tested now
-with the feedback and data from the first sets...the next generation of aftermarket GDI injectors are currently in development and hope to have these available for purchase march/april timeframe
-we have an complete intank fuel pump assembly upgrade finished with development, available april/may
-we are working with 2 partners for a legitimate dual injection solution

its slow going, but we are doing it right

anything to show what your cai provides? for that price it should have some serious gains.

Intake is a cool, no pun intended, design.

Quick question. Says that it draws air from outside, not from the wheel well as in stock form. However, the parts shown do not include a replacement air box, just the cover. Won't air/moisture still be introduced from the wheel well if you retain that stock lower box? Or, will not having the air box sealed alleviate that?

From the hood gap and around the headlight. Pretty obvious

drawing air from both the front of the truck and the fender works well in most conditions - this is how we have our trucks setup in AZ. The 2015 F150 draws air 100% from the front of the vehicle. The idea of the plug on a 2011-2014 is during a wet/rainy condition, the plug stops the trumpet from pulling any air into the engine from the fender area. less moisture in the intake tract could reduce the intercooler core condensation, ill upload a photo next week of the blockoff. both are valid

open your hood. look to the left of the headlight. then look behind the headlight. there are 2 giant rubber flaps. Keep in mind this is NOT ramair (that is only for NA engines)

we collected data with 3 different intake configurations (stock airbox w/ drop in, competitor intake/airbox, Full-Race CAI) -- using Geno's truck with stock turbos and upgraded turbos + our truck with EFR turbos. Its not fair to you stock turbo guys if we claimed you will find as much gains as we did but without question when the hood is closed any other aftermarket intake is not gaining like it does on a dyno, with the hood open
