Hey guys just talked to Ted at Innovative and he sent me the stats on the sct sf3 with custom tunes.

Xtreme Race- 420-440rwhp/760-780rwtq - Converter locked in all gears.
Xtreme Street- 420-430rwhp/730-760rwtq- Not recommended for towing.
Street- 400rwhp/670rwtq- Tow up to 10k lbs.
Tow- 310rwhp/560rwtq- Towing over 10k lbs up to the maximum of thetruck.
Economy- Mileage program only.

Im thinking of spending the $80 and gettin the xtreme street. I wana know who has what and how they like it. I would like some more power and smoke but dont know if I need the extreme or not. Just have the stock 6.0 in my 05 with a straight pipe (no muff or cat) and also an egr delete. Any suggestions would be great, my birthday is may 31 and the girlfriend is gonna let me get a tuner so hope to get it figured out before then. Thanks Josh

Extreme street rocks. You wont get hardly any smoke off the street tune, but that's ok. The Street tune is still a really fun tune and the clean driving makes it nice if you're in the city or something. The x-street will only puff on take off and then once the turbo is lit you'll barely get a haze. Eric has excellent tunes.

Economy is a waste of money. The extreme race/street tunes will give the best mileage if you can keep your foot out of it.

At one point it was. It isn't now. I've been through 2 headgasket jobs, and going to be doing it a 3rd time hopefully this summer. The only difference, last two jobs were done at the dealer, this time I am doing it, and it will get done correctly now.

Are those horsepower and torque ratings added to what the truck has now or is that the extra gain? Also, what is the most added horsepower/torque can the stock fuel pump keep up with?

Quick question.

Was studded, now it's not and your going to do it again? Not being a smarta$$ but
Wasn't it a mod friendly dealer that would put the studs in if you provided them?

That would be the total REAR WHEEL, hp and torque numbers the truck would put out. The rear wheel numbers will always be less then what is at the crank.

Those are total at the wheels. The stock pump usually has issues keeping up with those hot tunes. A fuel pressure gauge is key. (How many times have you read me saying this now ya think?)

The dealer did put the studs in. The gaskets failed in less than 10k miles with dealer installed studs. They had no clue what they were doing. They wont deck the heads. If they're out of spec, they get a new head. That's all well and good, except new heads can be out of spec too. The heads NEED to be decked/pressure checked. Ford will NOT deck those heads. I am going to do the job myself and do it RIGHT. The dealer took the studs out after the gaskets blew again because they didn't want to get in trouble with Ford. They did me the favor of putting them in the first time so I just went along with whatever they wanted to do. They then asked me not to come back anymore. How nice of them huh? I've been through 3 or 4 incompetent dealers now. Every time I bring my truck in for work, it usually comes back multiple weeks later with the exact same problems. Finding a good 6.0 tech is nearly impossible.

Correct and Correct, but the fuel pump may or may not be able to keep up!!!
