WELCOME!!!:c: and 16mpg is what i get with an intake, exaust, and programmer.....so dont expect to be in the 20s:dang:

GUESS MY RIGHT FOOT IS CHEAPER THAN SPENDING ALOT OF$$$$ ON ALOT OF PROGRAMMERS ?????

03Powerstroke 12-15-2011 07:38 PM

it depends, my programmer sucks but SCT tuners are GREAT and would proly help!! also a straight pipe is a good idea... how fast are you driving when you get 16??

---AutoMerged DoublePost---

Its a 4door longbed auto trans stocktires

03Powerstroke 12-16-2011 12:16 PM

the SCT would proly help, and the straight pipe wouldnt help with mpg's but its better for the truck..... when i got 16 i was runnin 75-85mph with LOTS of hills but that was the only time ive calculated all highway mpg's

bud constable 12-16-2011 12:20 PM

About 70 to 80mp its alongbed auto trans I bought it new paid it off 2years ago wife thinks need sell it AND BUY A NEW ONE . I LIKE NOT HAVIN ANY PAYMENTS

03Powerstroke 12-16-2011 12:26 PM

i wouldnt sell it, i love mine!!! if you get a custom tuned SCT it will help... also if you want good mpgs you can slow down(60-65mph), i just cant stand to drive slower than 75mph:c:

bud constable 12-16-2011 12:58 PM
