    2007 filter and pan on my 2008

    i don't think you get what im saying. i had to use a filter that is listed for the 2004-2007 trucks for my 2008. the filter that was correct for the 2008-2010 will not fit my truck with the pan that came from the factory on my truck.

    What size trans gauge to get

    I have an Autometer, Ultra lite series, Pyrometer and am looking to install a trans temp gauge. The Ultra lite seriies has 2 types. One goes up to 250 degrees the other to 280 degrees. I have never had a trans temp gauge and am looking for some help as to which one I should use. The gauge...

    Oil Useage

    Different oil does react differently. I use to loose a quart of oil between oil changes when I used synthetic in one of my trucks. If I used petroleum based, no use at all. It has to do with the size and shape of the oil molecules and the clearances of the rings and seals in your motor.

    changing gears for bigger tires on a diesel?

    Can't most hand held programmers adjust for different tire sizes? I know the Hypertech programmer on my '02 does. If you don't have any mods to your truck I would get a tuner that will correct for your tire change. You will be able to use one of the tunes to increase performance so you won't...

    6.4L Block Heater

    I agree. I did not realize that my '08 did not have the block heater until I was driving off. When I asked about and "engine heater", the sales guy thought I was talking about an in cab heater. On my 7.3 I would plug it in when it got 40 degrees F or below. It made a huge difference...

    Extended Warranty Pricing

    What year truck is this for? My '08 came with a 6/100K mile engine warranty, 5/60K remainder of drivetrain warranty, and a 3/36K complete. I was happy with that.

    SCT Extreme/AFE/Magnaflow/SCT delete DPF

    Thats awesome. I just reset my tripmeter today, first time putting in fuel since I bought it. It cleared my mileage reader to 0 as well. I drove about 20 miles and was getting low 14's when I parked. I am still curious to know whether or not your tune can be detected once removed.

    SCT Extreme/AFE/Magnaflow/SCT delete DPF

    Sweet. Try not to race at every opportunity and give us some real world mpg #s. Do you know if the tune you have can be removed and undetected by Ford?

    I need to do the same on my SRW '08. From the research that I have done you need to get rid of your DPF and get a custom tune.

    Tuner and Exhaust modifications

    I have an '02. I have run a 4" exhaust from the turbo back. It has a muffler, but it is straight through. Not much to it, so I doubt it does much "muffling". I installed and EGT gauge at the same time. I do recomend doing this. The truck really is not that much louder in the cab. Outside...

    more turbo whistle and a straight pipe

    I've got the 7.3 in my '03. I noticed more torbo noise when I replace the stock intake with a AFE stage 2 system.

    Why increas the idle speed?

    Cool, thanks guys. I don't think I'll worry about this yet. I'll see how the truck does this winter.

    Why increas the idle speed?

    I did a search and cannot find why some owners increase the idle speed:dunno. If someone can clue me in I would be most appreciative.

    Edge Juice/Attitude warning level settings?

    I am surprised no one has responded to your post. The tranny temp I am not sure about. As far as the others. Engine temp I would set a little higher, 210-215. EGT I would drop to around 1200-1250, not worth blowing your turbo unless your getting ready to win $10K. Turbo timer, 350-375...

    Thanks. I'll have to get some pics of my trucks. I drove my '08 around for the first time today, aside from the short drive home. It sure is different compared to my '02. It's like a new corvette compared to a 1969 muscle car. They are different, but I enjoy both.

    I just found this site. It looks pretty cool and am looking forward to getting some good info for my new '08 F350 crew and my '02 F250, which already has the the first 3 basic mods.
