Fleece Performance FPE-351-0407 Cheetah Turbocharger - 2004.5-2007 Dodge 5.9L Cummins

The Fleece Performance FPE-351-0407 Cheetah is a stock-appearing drop-in turbocharger for 2004.5-2007 Dodge 5.9L Cummins trucks. This is a bolt-on upgrade, not a stock-style replacement - the exclusive 63mm FMW compressor wheel and Inconel turbine wheel deliver smooth throttle response, strong top-end power, and support up to 650 RWHP with no core charge and no expensive kit required.

Buy this if...

• Your truck is a confirmed MY2004.5-2007 5.9L Cummins and you want a stock-appearing upgraded VGT that bolts on without fabrication, a full kit, or a core charge.
• You want improved throttle response, bigger top-end power, and headroom to support up to 650 RWHP with Fleece's 1 Year Limited Parts Warranty behind it.

Do not choose this if...

• Your goal is a pure stock replacement with no added performance - this turbo is built to outperform stock, not replicate it.
• Your 2004 truck's VIN digit 10 is a 4 - you need FPE-351-0304, not this turbo.
• Your ship-to address is in a restricted state - see the notice above.

Verify before ordering...

• 2004 trucks only: confirm VIN digit 10 is 5 or higher before selecting this part number.
• 2005-2007 trucks: no VIN check needed - this is the correct application.

Watch the Cheetah in Action

What Makes This Turbo Different From a Stock Replacement

A stock replacement turbo restores factory performance. The FPE-351-0407 replaces factory performance with something better - and still looks and installs exactly like stock. No expensive kit, no custom piping, no fabrication. It bolts on the same way the OEM turbo does.

What changes is what is inside. Fleece's exclusive 63mm FMW compressor wheel technology and Inconel turbine wheel produce smoother low-end throttle response, stronger top-end airflow, and the classic Cheetah sound owners recognize. The wastegate is factory-preset to 40 PSI. The turbo supports builds up to 650 RWHP.

Buy this for real performance headroom with a stock-bolt-in install. Stay with a standard OEM-style replacement if factory restoration is the only goal.

What the 650 RWHP Rating Means For Your Build

The 650 RWHP figure is the turbo's capability ceiling - the point at which the compressor runs out of airflow capacity. For a daily driver or tow rig it means substantial headroom above normal demands. For a build targeting maximum output, verify the rest of the truck's setup and modifications can support that level. The turbo will not be the limiting factor for most 5.9L combinations, but reaching 650 RWHP requires more than the turbo alone.

Why the 2004 VIN Check Is the Only Reliable Fitment Method

The 2004 calendar year spans two different turbo families. The MY2004.5 cutoff is not visible from the outside - you cannot tell by looking at the truck, the sticker, or the order history. The only way to confirm which family your 2004 truck belongs to is VIN digit 10. Ordering by calendar year alone on a 2004 truck is the most common wrong-order mistake for this platform. Trucks built before the cutoff need the 2003-2004 application instead.
