Non-EBPV Turbo Pedestal - 7.3L Power Stroke L99.5-03

The Non-EBPV Turbo Pedestal is a direct bolt-in replacement for the factory turbo pedestal on the 7.3L Power Stroke L99.5-03 (1999.5-2003) - one of three application-specific versions in this pedestal family, covering 1999.5 through 2003 trucks only (not E99 and not OBS 1994-1998). It eliminates the EBPV (Exhaust Back Pressure Valve) actuator assembly and the exhaust leaks associated with it, and works with the factory turbo, KC300x, KC38r, Garrett GTP38r style ball bearing turbos, and Turbonetics ball bearing drop-in turbos. Four O-rings are included.

Which 7.3L Pedestal Do You Need?

The Non-EBPV pedestal for the 7.3L Power Stroke comes in three application-specific versions. They are not interchangeable - confirm your exact application before ordering. This listing is for the L99.5-03 (1999.5-2003) application only.

If your truck is an E99 or a 1994-1998 OBS, use the links above to reach the correct version. Ordering the wrong application pedestal is the most common mistake on this product family.

What This Pedestal Fixes on the 1999.5-2003 7.3L

The EBPV actuator assembly on the 7.3L Power Stroke is a common exhaust leak source - owners typically notice exhaust smell in the cab, soot buildup around the pedestal, or an audible exhaust leak under load. This pedestal eliminates the EBPV assembly at the bolt-in level, removing that leak source. It works with the stock turbo or any of the listed compatible upgraded drop-ins, so the fix is the same whether the truck is stock or has been upgraded.

Compatible Turbo and Outlet Configurations

This pedestal is confirmed compatible with the following turbo setups on the L99.5-03 7.3L Power Stroke:

• Factory / stock turbo
• KC300x turbo
• KC38r turbo
• Garrett GTP38r style ball bearing turbos
• Turbonetics ball bearing drop-in turbos

Works with a high-flow outlet or a gutted stock outlet. If your turbo is not on this list, verify compatibility before ordering.

Avoid These Common Mistakes

• Ordering the wrong application version: The L99.5-03, E99, and OBS pedestals are not interchangeable. This version is 1999.5-2003 only - confirm before ordering.
• Unconfirmed turbo fitment: If your turbo is not factory, KC300x, KC38r, GTP38r style, or Turbonetics ball bearing drop-in, verify compatibility before ordering.
• Shipping to CA or CO: Eligible out-of-state address required - this item cannot ship to a California or Colorado delivery address.

Final Fit Check

• Application confirmed as 1999.5-2003 7.3L Power Stroke - not E99 or OBS
• Turbo confirmed as factory, KC300x, KC38r, GTP38r style, or Turbonetics ball bearing drop-in
• 4 O-rings confirmed included - no separate O-ring purchase required for the pedestal
• Shipping destination confirmed as non-CA / non-CO address

For a 1999.5-2003 7.3L Power Stroke running any of the compatible turbo setups above, this is the correct bolt-in Non-EBPV pedestal to eliminate the EBPV actuator assembly and close that exhaust leak at the source.
