The DAP-HE300VG is a new HE300VG replacement turbo with aftermarket actuator for 2013-2018 Dodge Ram 6.7L Cummins trucks. It ships calibrated and ready to install, with a 60mm compressor wheel that outperforms the 58mm wheel found on the Cab and Chassis model - a moderate upgrade over the stock configuration. Includes a new turbo actuator, turbo manifold gasket, oil drain gasket, and a one-year warranty.
Buy this if...
- Your truck is a 2013-2018 Dodge Ram 6.7L Cummins - either a pickup or Cab and Chassis - and you need an HE300VG replacement turbo
- You want a calibrated, ready-to-install turbo with a new actuator already included
- You want the 60mm compressor wheel upgrade over the 58mm found on the Cab and Chassis model
- You have a rebuildable core ready to return and can cover core return shipping
Do not choose this if...
- You want a pure stock-spec OE replacement with no compressor wheel upgrade - this DAP unit runs a 60mm wheel, not the stock 58mm found on the Cab and Chassis configuration
- You do not have a rebuildable core to return or cannot cover core return shipping - the $600 deposit will not be refunded without a qualifying core
- Your shipping address is in CA or CO
Verify before ordering...
- Truck is a 2013-2018 Dodge Ram 6.7L Cummins - confirm pickup vs Cab and Chassis to verify cross-reference match
- Your old turbo part number matches one of the cross-references listed below
- Rebuildable core is available and you are prepared to cover return shipping costs
60mm vs 58mm - What the Upgrade Actually Means
The stock HE300VG on the Cab and Chassis application runs a 58mm compressor wheel. This DAP replacement uses a 60mm compressor wheel. DAP describes this as a moderate upgrade - the larger wheel moves more air, which benefits towing load and overall engine output. For pickup truck owners whose OE turbo already runs a larger wheel, this is a direct replacement that also carries the new actuator and calibrated setup. For Cab and Chassis owners, it is a step up from stock. This is not a high-horsepower performance turbo - it is a well-spec'd replacement with a modest compressor upgrade.
Buy this for a calibrated, ready-to-install HE300VG replacement that includes a new actuator and a moderate compressor upgrade over the Cab and Chassis stock spec. If you need an exact OEM-spec wheel size, verify the compressor diameter against your original turbo before ordering.
Calibrated and Ready to Install - What That Means for You
The HE300VG is a variable geometry turbo. The actuator controls the vane position, and the actuator must be calibrated to the turbo's specific vane range for the truck to operate and boost correctly. This DAP turbo ships already calibrated with the new aftermarket actuator matched to the turbo. There is no separate calibration step required at installation - the turbo installs directly.
This is a meaningful difference from sourcing a turbo and actuator separately and requiring calibration equipment to set the vane position before the truck will run correctly.

Avoid These Common Mistakes
- Ordering without checking your old turbo part number. The cross-reference lists for pickup and Cab and Chassis are different. Locate your old turbo's part number and verify it appears in the correct list before ordering.
- Ordering without a core ready to return. The $600 core deposit is not refunded without a qualifying rebuildable core return. Do not order if you do not have a core available.
- Expecting a stock-spec 58mm compressor wheel. This turbo runs a 60mm compressor wheel - a moderate upgrade over the Cab and Chassis stock 58mm. If an exact OEM spec is required, verify the compressor wheel size before ordering.
- Forgetting that core return shipping is at your expense. Turbo cores are heavy freight. Factor this cost in before ordering.
Before You Place the Order
- Truck is a 2013-2018 Dodge Ram 6.7L Cummins - pickup or Cab and Chassis confirmed
- Old turbo part number verified against the correct cross-reference list above
- Rebuildable core available to return and $600 core deposit acknowledged
- Core return shipping cost (at your expense) accounted for
- 60mm compressor wheel upgrade is acceptable for your application
- Shipping address is outside California and Colorado
Checklist confirmed? The DAP-HE300VG is the correct calibrated HE300VG replacement turbo for your 2013-2018 6.7L Cummins.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the actuator need to be calibrated and is it already done?
The HE300VG is a variable geometry turbo. The actuator controls the position of the vanes inside the turbine housing, and it must be calibrated to match the specific vane range of the individual turbo for the truck to boost correctly. This DAP turbo ships already calibrated with the new aftermarket actuator matched to it - no separate calibration step is required at installation.
What is the $600 core deposit and how do I get it back?
A $600 refundable core deposit is collected at checkout. After your new turbo arrives, you ship your old failed turbo back as the core - at your expense. Once the core is received and verified as rebuildable, the $600 is refunded. If the core is not returned or is not rebuildable, the deposit is not refunded.
What is the difference between the Cab and Chassis and pickup cross-reference lists?
The 2013-2018 6.7L Cummins was used in both standard pickup trucks and the Cab and Chassis platform. The two applications use different OE turbo configurations with different part numbers. This DAP turbo with the 60mm compressor wheel is listed as an upgrade for the Cab and Chassis application (which uses the 58mm stock wheel) and as a direct replacement for the standard pickup application. Identify your old turbo part number and match it to the correct list before ordering.
What does the one-year warranty cover?
This turbo includes a one-year warranty. For specific warranty terms and coverage details, contact DAP directly before purchasing if warranty scope is a deciding factor in your order.
What gaskets are included with this turbo?
This turbo includes the turbo manifold gasket and oil drain gasket. The new aftermarket actuator is also included and already calibrated to the turbo.
Why can't this turbo ship to California or Colorado?
This turbo does not meet California or Colorado emissions requirements and cannot be shipped to those states. Orders placed from CA or CO addresses will be cancelled. There is no exception to this restriction.
