im actually running tuning from amdp diesel outta Alberta Canada . With a 5 tunes . The egr is just turned off and unplugged right now . They make block off plates but these thugs don’t really move enough air for me to put the block off plates on yet . I will say there’s enough fuel to support a big turbo .
Welcome to the forum Stoked_f150!!! This guy has a great looking truck and it you get a chance you should check out the videos of it running. Sounds dynamite!!!
Just wondering, which leveling kit did you use at ready lift ? I have the rancho quick lift kit 2.75" and It doesnt look like i got as much lift as you.
Thanks
Thanks she’s just a daily driver I keeper clean tho . 30k kms now not a single issue or complaint . I’ve owned a lot of trucks . 600rwhp 6.7 cummins for 5 years . Multiple 6.0’s , gas trucks 7.3 powerstroke dually still have . And this is by far my favourite truck , for my daily needs it’s perfect fits anything I need and great on fuel
I just got my 2018 back from a 24 day stay at the local ford dealer. Running the SCT BDX on the canned performance setting and blew the turbo. The truck started to make a whine, losing power, turbo psi and the mpg began to suffer. I waited until after the EGR recall to tune the truck and the shop first suspected something was put back together incorrectly/faulty EGR replacement. After ordering a new complete EGR assembly, the problems remained. They pressure tested the intake/turbo/intercooler systems with dye and couldn’t locate a leak. They narrowed it down to the turbo and said if the new replacement didn’t fix the issue they were considering buying the truck back because they didn’t know what else it could be. A second EGR and a new turbo later, things are running great again.
So, did they do all this replacement work as warranty, or did they detect the SCT BDX and say that you were responsible for blowing the turbo and charged you for the replacement costs? I am thinking they covered under warranty, since you mentioned they may do a buy back, but wanted to ask the question.
Welcome to the forum, as I see this is your 1st post.
Everything 100% covered from Ford. Pulled the tuner out and took it in to the dealer. No mention of the tuner or modifications from Ford. I have since sold the tuner and looking for delete options with better/custom tuning.
Yea I was referring to the tunes I’m running currently that sucks about yours blowing . I just updated the firmware and revised tunes on my ngauge today . Just waiting for fleece to release a drop in turbo
I think I am going to switch mine to Proven. Ive been using him for several 6.7s and he responds within minutes with answers and solutions. I don't want a hot-rod I want a reliable, nice shifting, smooth, good MPG diesel. Between Proven's ECM tune and the latest Ford OEM TCM calibration I hear it the cats meow.
I love the tuning shifts good killer milage zero complaints . I’ve been running it for months now as well .
