Very nice our first delete on the site! GDP I take it? Did you have EGR and PCM reflash done before or after tune?

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 .

Kyle,

Are you still running factory muffler?

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.

What HP were you running? I am willing to bet that turbo was going to fail anyway without the tuner...

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.
