[TxFireman1972]

Ok the truck is going to be headed to PowerStrokeMagic for:

Headstuds
EGR Delete
New Oil Cooler
Updated STC fitting
Updated turbo feed line
Updated turbo drain line
Coolant flush and swap
Thermostat

Also will be adding before it goes:
Coolant filter

Anything else I need to have done while its apart?

 

[Agjake11]

[TxFireman1972]

I already changed fuel pressure spring, and I forgot to list the thermostat, but I have one already. Its on the pile in my office lol

Did they quote you 5000 times too? lol

JK man good to see you getting it done finally. Youll love the peace of mind.

 

[TxFireman1972]

Well it came down to location. They are a lot closer. Believe me, talk to anybody that knows me and I went back and forth between TSD and PSM. Just logistically they worked out better. My biggest concern was, that if I ever had to take it back for problems etc, Houston would be alot closer than SA. I definitely appreciate the time you spent on the quotes, and hope there are no hard feelings.

Did you do the updated Fuel Pressure gasket kit yet?

Also add Schaeffer Synth oil and two bottles of Rev-X to the truck...

You talking about the spring? yes I did

No biggie man im just giving you a hard time. Im glad to hear its getting taken care of heard great things about psm youll be in good hands.

 

[TxFireman1972]

May go ahead and do a regulated return too. Would be a good time to do it, since the cab will be off.

 

[Keanoknick]

Do the regulated return while there in there, much easier to do with the cab off.

I have not heard even one person say good things about Schaeffers oil, in the 6.0 I know several that run it in the 7.3 and love it, but never even heard of one person that was happy with it in the 6.0, who knows?

Which RR setup would you recommend?

 

[Paul@CP_Trucks]

Which RR setup would you recommend?

Strictly Diesel's Kit hands down..

 

[TxFireman1972]

That seems to be the consensus. Actually, it doesnt seem like there are many kits out there.

Ordered my MBRP 4" TB exhaust today from Performance Truck Products.

Glad to hear your FINALLY getting this stuff done after talking about it forever!!

The guys at PSM will take care of ya. They do all my major work. :rockon:

 

[TxFireman1972]

Tell me about it. Passing up the 100K mile mark was a mental blow lol. Plus my ECT/EOT delta has been creeping up, so its time!!

I really like my Trusted Performance kit, but happen to know they are on back order. So, I'd say Strictly Diesel's Kit it's really nice too.

 

[TxFireman1972]

If I do it, I'll probably go with the ITP/Strictly kit. Everyone seems to like it.

When those start going haywire it ain't long...I've had two in here this week we had to replace.

ECT/EOT?
