Is turbo bark bad for the turbo?

Turbo bark is caused by a sudden lift from the throttle. The pressure built from turbo boost in the intake manifold has no place to go right away so it goes “backwards” through the system thus spinning the turbo in the opposite direction. That’s not a good thing. It can cause the turbo shaft to twist and break.

Been chipped since 6000 miles.. No problems. Don’t forget the collector pipe. As far I know the stainless beauty had no modifications during the 1st phase of 6.0 PSD. Per Ford diesel mechanic, they are prone to failure at the weld on the “Y”. You should pull a DTC on poor recirc or low boost.

What causes a 6.0L Turbo to fail?

Early 6.0L Powerstroke trucks also suffer from a poor oil drain tube. The collection of oil in the turbocharger can result in the oil cooking. This has been the root cause of many all-out turbocharger failures in the 6.0L Powerstrokes. Ford gave ’06 and ’07 models an improved oil drain tube, resulting in drastically less turbo failures.
