New Guy to powerstrokes!! help
So i just picked up a 2005 f350 powerstroke and im looking for upgrades!! this is what i have on order..DIESELSITE Coolant Filter Kit,4" turbo straight pipe...im looking at the edge with attitude? SCT Flash Tuner Programmer? get both or one or the other??.. well hope you guys can give me some help and any other advice.. thanks!!:humm:

Get the SCT with custom tunes, an AirDog and a fuel sump.
|
edge is junk, get the sct w/ custom tunes then order urself some gauges
|
Yup! SCT with tunes and an EGR delete and head studs. Just fix the problems before they arise. The EGR will crack, it's not if just when. Just delete it and enjoy yer truck.
|
you have a good list started. SCT is the only way to go when it comes to tuning a 6Leaker. I would purchase a Edge Insight with a pyrometer probe to watch your EOT, ECT, and EGT. You should also look into a Fuel Pressure gauge.

thanks for all the info... i have been doing alot of reading and taking in all the info.. this edge is a POS!! so.. i looked into head studs... this shop wants around $3300 to put them in.. what you guys think about that?

It will save you a lot of headaches in the long run! Trust me:c: |
yeah i was thinking the same thing.. just i never tore into a diesel motor before and thing can get a lil crazy, ya know!

don't worry about studs til the truck pukes....
coolant filter and running correct non silicate coolant is the big things, drive it hard (well not too hard) and keep it maintained and should have no big issues i run erics exteme street tune with no studs, and still have stock egr cooler and truck runs great |
i got i just got erics extm street tune a few weeks ago.. i like it.. and i picked lope idle from rcd... thats pretty cool too....
