Been fighting this for awhile. My truck has intermittent dead pedal. Caught it in the computer a couple times, loses 1 signal for a quick second, then pedal goes dead. Throw it in neutral, fire it up, works. Sometimes it’s noticeably underpowered, like it’s still missing one of the signals, most...

Anyone know what size the flare fitting is on the late ebp sensors? It’s looks like an, but it’s bigger than a -4, and smaller than -6, and I don’t think they make -5. Put an extra ebp tube on my truck to monitor actual ebp, and need to adapt to 1/8pipe for a sensor for the edge monitor. Sent...

Motor let go again… 1/2 throttle, about 45mph, top of 3rd gear. Again, no real reason for it to let go, did the walk of shame and picked up a decent size chunk of bed plate. Probably about a fist sized hole in the drivers side, can’t see the hole on the passenger side, think it’s behind the...

So, I got one kicking my ass here. It’s one of the guys at the shops truck. I built the motor about 5k ago, he went to pass someone on the freeway last Friday and lost all power, pouring smoke out like a 12v with no fuel plate in it. Truck has 190/30s, a stage 1 cam we had laying around, don’t...

Anyone know of something that will withstand a constant 400-600 degrees with spurts to 1000-1200? The heater hose that runs around the back of the motor keeps burning where the u turn from the quick connect to the hard tube junction is. Unfortunately this part of the hose hits the hot...

So, since I'm kinda stupid, I have a motor at kill devil diesel getting machined. I am shooting for 1000hp with it, which should put my truck in the 10s, and looking at possibly running 6.70s in some odss events. So, for the stupid part. Truck is a crew cab, and a daily. So since its looking...

Any body haf luck getting the def pressure line off the pump without breaking it? Ive had to pull 3 now, was able to work around 1 without pulling it, and the other 2 would not release, and I ended up breaking the locking tabs. Seems simple enough, squeeze the tabs and pull, but they never seem...

So, grenaded my motor today, guess I'm gonna have to do this again... So, cheaped out and didnt put rods in last go around, and figuring thats what failed this time. Hoping some of ya can look this over, and point me in some sort of direction. Looking to be putting down around 800, maybe put...

Ok, so i decided to screw with the truck, as apparently mid 12s was too slow... It now has a KC Stage 2 hi pressure, S476 low pressure, Strictly bowl derete, Air Dog 2 4g, Warren 250/100 7mm hybrids, and a bunch of other chit... On stock rods and stock style pistons. Anyway, about a month ago...

As the title states, my cts 2 is not reading ebp. Reads 0 at all times, thru the dlc. Do not have add on stuff or anything with it. Anybody run into this? Tried 2 different tuners, idp and tsd, tsd i knkw for fact uses ebp in tuning, idp, we figured was running a tune that ignored it. Read 0 on...

So im lost on this one. It is Charlie from kc turbos truck, something is broke in the motor, and it wont start. Cranks good. This apparently happened at same time, he shut it off when he heard evil noises, and tried restarting after, and its a crank no start. Icp 1200-1500 cranking, rpm...

Anyone have any experience with the hp tuners software? Ive heard there is actually access to pw tables, and that its a hell of a lot easier to tune with. Like damn near common rail tuneability. Im interested, as tuning my own stuff would be cool, but with all the guessing/fooling and from...

Ok, first off stupid question i know... Anyway, ive wanted to do compounds for a long time, and after driving Charlies truck, the bug has bitten again. Now i cant sleep and want to go fast. Im thinking a KC stage 3 with a 480 in front of it. I like the driveability of the vgt, and am stuck on...

Got a motor i did for a buddy about a year back that keeps breaking rocker arms. We did the usual head studs, egr stuff, o ringed the heads, put an rcd stage 1 cam and lifters in, and now has their push rods as well (we'll get to that :doh:), regulated return, warren 190/30s, kc stage 2, bd...

So im gonna be pulling the trigger on a new trans here next week. Im going with a twisted stage 3 with a 2000 stall converter. Am i gonna need my tunes revised? Will i be ok with just pulling the added shift pressure i put in in the programmable parameters when the tune is loaded? Thanks fellas!

Recently found my leaf spring bushings are shot, I've known my springs have been flat pretty much since I bought the truck. New ford springs at my cost are around 350 bucks, Icon 4 in springs last I checked are about 800 bucks. Id like to do a coil spring swap, but no single wheel front axles...

Well i got some miles and some racing in on my LE8800, figured id give a little review. To start with, truck is an 04 runnng 205/30s from holders, with a kc stage 3. Before stepping injectors up i was running holders 190/30s with the same turbo, just figured the extra 15cc may help bump the...

Looking to make my truck level and im cheap as fuk, at least till i figure out what im gonna do with springs. Right now it is about 1-1 1/2 in down in the front. It has an unknown add a leaf in the front that was on it when i bought it, and some pmf leveling shackles. I saw a 7.3 in the shop...

I have an air dog 2 which is dropping pressur now. I realize i need a better pump, but funds are limited at this point, so a fuel lab is out of the question. It started about a month ago, so i changed the fuel filters, a i realized i had forgotten when i changed them, and it turned out it had...

I bought h13 led headlights and h10 fog lightsfrom retro solutions about 6 months ago. I havent been real happy with the light dispersion of the headlights, but the fogs are great. I was showing them to a buddy who wa curious about the leds vs hids and was parked really close to my garage while...
