just bought an 02 7.3
hey guys just bought an 02 7.3 after selling my 12 valve last week...
Here's the specs extd cab long bed auto with a mbrp 4 inch turbo back exhaust and a k&n cai, no cut pcm box so i don't believe it had a chip on it I was wondering what the limitations of the truck are before i start breaking stuff and what kind of setup to go with as far as performance any help will be appreciated thanks guys ---AutoMerged DoublePost--- and it has 162000 miles on it |
gauges are really nice and helpful, a chip with custom tunes would really help,
|
What are your goals for the truck?
What do you use it for? Info like that would help us help you. |
dont really tow much other than the race car or boat once or twice a year basically a daily driver / playtoy and guages should be in soon... is the stock tranny temp reliable or should i get one of them also? i was looking into chips such as a dp tuner or php what do you think? anything to go along with a chip to help?
|
me personally would buy an aftermarket gauge, php is great thats what im running, with the chip on 120 race i can pull our mud truck on a trailer and my egt stay down, how much power you looking at trying ta get out of your truck?
|
i wanna be in the mid 14s if thats too much too ask...
i put an sct on my truck just to see what it would do and i punched it from a stop and once it hit 70 mph it threw the icp uncontrollable code... whats that mean? do i have a weak hpop? |
the icp is a sensor on the driver side head, its directly behind the alternator, might have a bad icp, how much hp did you add? what gauges?
|
it was the sct performance tune which was 120 hp i believe so should i get another sensor?
|
pull the plug off of it and and see if theres oil where the plug goes, if there is its bad, (if im incorrect someone please correct me) but i would probably would change it, hopefully someone more knowledgeable than me will jump in put there input LOL
|
alright thanks... i talked to a buddy of mine with the same truck running a custom tune from dp and he put a bypass valve on a sensor that supposedly cuts off the fuel to the engine and that stopped his from throwing the code is that something legit or was it all b.s.
