Fitment
Engine: Dodge / Ram 5.9L Cummins (12V & 24V)
Years: 1994–2002 (once factory HX35 or HY35 turbo)
Transmission: Compatible any—fitment depends on original HX35 housing setup
Note: For 1998.5-2002 24V models, higher-output injectors and lift-pump are recommended for optimal performance.

“FMW” stands for Forged Milled Wheel—an exclusive compressor wheel technology by Fleece that delivers stronger internals, more efficient flow, and improved durability over standard cast wheels.
Is tuning required after install?
Although this is a drop-in replacement for the factory HX35, if you are aiming for the full 650 RWHP potential you should invest in supporting upgrades like injectors, lift-pump, intercooler and proper tuning. Fleece recommends fueling upgrades for optimal performance.
Will this turbo fit my 2003-2004 5.9L Cummins?
No. This specific model is designed for 1994-2002 5.9L Cummins with the original HX35/HY35 turbo setup. For 2003-2004 you’ll need a different Cheetah model.
