    Air filter monitor

    The reason SOME of the filter minders have cracked / eploded is the hot coolant overflowing out of the degas bottle onto the cold plastic filterminder... (NOT that mine did that more than twice on my 03 !!!) but in 50K miles on my 03 I changed it just before I decided to get the 05 Ex... and...

    With all due respect to our early responders :) if you care talking about tuning a 6.0, The xCal2 is the way to go... www.sctflash.com or one of the sponsors here... controls engine and tranny completely... while I'm not sure of the latest releases by Bully-dog, if they say they "defuel" to...

    which tuner?

    If you are talking about switching tunes on the fly? IMHO the ability to swap tunes on the fly is WAY overrated.... IMHO :) What I have found is I rarely have a need to change tunes.. I leave the HIGHEST HONKING hp tune I got in the truck and ration out the power with my right foot :) but I...

    turbo backfire????

    the 6-ohs do have a tendency to turbo fart if the throttle is chopped harder than "easing off" especially if you are accelerating or under load... when the turbo builds a lot of boost pushing air into the engine and you chop the throttle, all that pressure has to find SOMEWHERE to go and the...

    It happened...

    Coming out of JR's Steakhouse (a NICE $100 per person restaurant) the valet pulled up with the Ex and I overhead one of the snobbish bimbettes waiting for their car say "Could you drive anything bigger?"... turned around to tongue lash her but the in-law's were just coming out of the door after...

    Predator???

    Had one on my 03 Ex for about 30K miles and had no problems - ran it at the 100+ hp setting all the time.. Sold mine for $150 when I got the 05 and bought an SCT xCal2.... Offer him $50 and see if he takes it - if he does have fun with it :) but I would HIGHLY recommend a SCT xCal2 over...

    04 Excursion

    I presume you have the 6-oh... everybody has their best way of doing things and you will too... 4 me ? first thing to do is get rid of the boat anchor muffler to allow some exhaust flow, either a better flow thru muffler like the walker BTM, a cat back or turbo back exhaust... Next thing I did...

    Need new fog lights

    the 9005's are a direct replacment.... While the brighter bulb defeats the purpose of a fog light, here in North Texas, I think I've SEEN fog once in 3 years, so not an issue !

    SCT Files

    I've had tunes from 3 different ones and while the"best" may be what you're looking for, the difference is negligible in the top dogs when you have a SAFE tune.... there's only so much blood in this turnip, so the most is about the same...
