Give your factory IHI RHG6 turbocharger a noticeable performance upgrade with the SWAG Performance 10 Blade Billet Compressor Wheel for the 2001-2004 GM 6.6L LB7 Duramax. Precision CNC machined from high-strength billet aluminum, this direct replacement compressor wheel is engineered to improve airflow efficiency, increase turbo response, and provide the aggressive turbo whistle Duramax owners love.
Unlike the heavy factory cast compressor wheel, the SWAG billet design is lighter and stronger, allowing the turbocharger to accelerate more quickly while maintaining durability under elevated boost pressures. The optimized 10-blade aerodynamic design helps improve compressor efficiency throughout the RPM range, resulting in faster spool-up, reduced exhaust gas temperatures (EGTs), cleaner acceleration with less smoke, and improved overall drivability.
Whether your LB7 is stock, tuned, or equipped with common bolt-on modifications, this billet compressor wheel is an affordable upgrade that enhances both performance and reliability without replacing the complete turbocharger.

Installation Notes
- Fits factory IHI RHG6 turbochargers used on 2001-2004 LB7 Duramax engines.
- This compressor wheel uses a left-hand (reverse) thread. Turn the retaining nut clockwise (to the right) to loosen.
- Do not over-torque during installation. Snug the nut until fully seated—the normal operation of the turbocharger will self-tighten it.
- Professional installation is recommended.
