    Lack of power

    if your truck is an 03/04 you can unplug the EGR w/out setting off a CEL, if it is a california model, or an 05up truck, you will get CEL .. you can disable the EGR function w/SCT tuning (preferred), but if you want to unplug it , here's the Proper way: truck must be COLD, the preferrable...

    Lack of power

    try plugging the truck in at night, even though it's not that cold out.. sounds exactly what mine would do when the injectors were shot... the new ones made a world of difference

    Increase tire size and better MPG?

    well i don't know from all the metric sizes but i do know that w/my 3.73 gears i lost quite a bit of mileage with my 35" tires. i have PLENTY of HP to move the truck, that's not a problem, but 4.10's would bring me back to the stock ratio. i'm doing gears next week, but unsure if i'll just do...

    whats the best programmer to get?

    definitely the SCT is the best programmer currently available for the 6.0.. CRAZYFORD, the 6.0's don't use 'chips' like the 7.3 did, you actually reflash the factory PCM w/new parameters (SCT), or add an inline module such as edge,bully dog (not preferred way of doing it, less safe, less...

    03 turbo silencer ring removed

    would you be interested in an upgraded turbo for your truck ? it's an 03 style turbo so it has the larger turbine housing, and also the larger turbine with only 10blades. the turbine (exhaust) side is machined inside and ceramic coated all around. the VGT vanes are dry film lubricant coated...

    time for gears and a better posi

    no i'm not going to go with arb's.. have used them in the past on some trail rigs.. i dont like the fact that they are totally open unless you need them, because there are times when you just need a little extra, but don't want the hassle of a fully locked diff.. honestly i'd go with lockers...

    time for gears and a better posi

    please post your opinions/experiences with posi units for the ford 10.5" rear end. i am not exactly sure the difference between the auburn, eaton, and detroit brand posi units other than the type of units that they are.. but i would appreciate some input from you guys on the...

    SMOKE - BIG BLACK SMOKE!?!

    that's because you have the platinum edition edge... the older first gen edge juice modules were put into production early before all of the testing/tuning was done with them, therefore they were pretty much just fancy "fueling boxes" that dumped more fuel and man they smoked like a train ...

    QUARTER MILE TIMES

    yes and that was with NO nitrous, and that was with the VGT turbo, not my S300.. my stock 04 turbo w/a 65mm compressor upgrade, 175cc sticks, 2500rpm converter, SCT w/spartan tunes.. although i must say i'm glad i didn't know the egt's on that run because my 1500* pyro stayed on the peg from...

    SMOKE - BIG BLACK SMOKE!?!

    there is an advantage to smoke, but not ridiculously black smoke, that is just for show.. but remember excess fueling will cause high egt's but this is due to the fact that the combustion event is still taking place after the exhaust valves have opened and is still burning in the exhaust...

    i want my turbo louder

    no no man, i wasn't trying to bash you, i just wanted to make sure that someone who didn't know better didn't read this and get the wrong info... my nonvgt 71 is actually quiter than the 03style vgtss was, but then youcan measure my turbo lag with a calender also !! good thing i got some...

    i want my turbo louder

    actually the compressor wheel (intake side) does nothing for the exhaust note.. and it's not any different from his. the turbine wheel on the other hand (exhaust side) makes a big difference.. the 06 turbo of his has a 15 blade turbine... in 04 they only had a 13 blade turbine.... and...

    Upgrading the Tranny for power?

    have your tune written so that it increases the line pressure to hold the clutch packs together tighter. this will help. i also have a stiffer spring in my pump along with tuning. the suncoast rebuild kit is very affordable , under 900 bucks, and comes w/all new frictions and steels, and lots...

    QUARTER MILE TIMES

    now that IS interesting indeed... do you have the complete airaid intake or just a drop in replacement filter ?? were you using a dynolock file that locked the tranny so that the runs could be completely the same and repeatably consistent , ? or did you dyno it with your street/race file ??

    dyno ??'s regarding diesels...

    i've always been under the impressions that dynos MEASURE torque, and that they CALCULATE horsepower from this measurement.. so TORQUE is actually MEASURED, and HP is determined w/mathematical equation ... have i been misinformed ?? there are two questions i'd like to get informed answers...

    QUARTER MILE TIMES

    although it IS possible to make 500HP w/the stock intake, it should be noted that at that power level there IS A GAIN to be made w/an aftermarket intake. i say this because when all this "" stock intake 500HP "" issue was being heavily debated i did a little testing of my own. this was...

    SCT / Edge Attitude

    no he means the DashDaq by drew technologies, probably one of the baddest accessories on the planet.. even plays videos and does navigation, it's a complete linux operating system computer inside... and the available settings are mindboggling, it's well worth the money. i first got my hands...
