I recently got a 6.4psd and i am getting 13-14mpg. Is there anything I can do to get better mileage without dpf delete? How can I tell and how often does the regen cycle? Will an aftermarket intake make a difference with my turbo lag?

 

Im dont know much on the 6.4 but i know a chip will help some will get this out there again..
oh and

 

What about the regen.? Can anyone tell me about that?

 

i know 2 people that got a 6.4 and went back too a 05/06 6.0 we get about 18/20 mpg

 

remove the dpf and get a spartan tuner or something similar. There are a few guys on here that say with similar setups as what I told you to do get in the high teens and there is one guy on here that claims like low-mid 20s like 23 or so.

 

Thanks for the help! I'm new to Ford and this site and i am enjoying them both. Hopefully soon I can see better mpg. Please keep the advice coming.

 

if you havent done so. Take it to the dealer there was a recall for the display. Owners wanted to know when the truck was going to regen so they updated the display system. Also run it at hwy speeds 75 mph as often as possible that seem to reduce the regen periods. I too went back to a 07 F350 DRW for mileage and DPF. The main reason is I tow a 40ft Raptor and whiletowing regen is no fun, 5MPG plus fuel consumption But I must admit the power was nice...looked at the 11 62K but would love to drive one

 

Thanks 1SG . I will call the local dealer about that. Cant wait for warranty to be up on the motor so I can delete the dpf. From what I hear that really makes a difference. This week I will be putting a cold air intake and hopefuly soon I will be getting a tuner for it . Ford really dropped the ball with the design on this one .

 

CSH dont get me wrong had I kept my 36ft FW I would still be an owner!! I agree the DPF delete will be priceless....so I wonder which one will be better DPF or UREA I guess we will wait and see gotta luv tree huggers

 

Yea thats gotta be the dumbest thing I have ever heard...burn more fuel to lower pollution????WTF? We can thank California for that one!
