First off, Welcome to Diesel Bombers!

I would say if you have opened up the exhaust and intake, the next logical step to go faster would be more fuel.. Possibly you could lookin into a good programmer.

i have had good luck with the SCT X-Cal 2 tuners. they have 3 different programs, can read DCT's and can be flashed with new custom tuned made by an Authorized SCT Dealer / Tuner, and used with a laptop can become a data logger too. there really isn't any way to get more air in there if you already have an aftermarket intake.


PS please loose the all caps typing.

ya the caps is kinda like screaming at someone the whole time. people dont want to be yelled at when trying to help.

dont know about ramming anymore air in. the SCT X-calibrator is excellent. works great on my 05 6.0. i want to see if i can have SCT add an economy mode to it though.

well mainly it depends on how deep your pockets are. there are so many options out there for Powerstrokes. there are injectors, HPOPs, up pipes, headers, turbo's, intercoolers, what gears do you have now?
