    Kc diy stage 2 vs. powermax stage 2

    :whs: I've never had a powermax but @KCTurbos has awesome service. I will say I had a few issues w/ seals initially but each time Charles answered his phone and emails right away, even one time late Friday night. I did talk w/ a friend of mine who was saying that he knew of a few aftermarket...

    who make the best tunes for the sct livewire ts plus for a ford 6.0

    I had I D P on my 08 and their mid 2010 writings were great but as I got additional tune "updates" they always charged for them, drivability began suffering and by late 2012 only the tow-tune ran ok w/ the cruise control. In any other tune the truck felt like a bucking bronco. I had to send my...

    Tell us what you think! Sight Glass or Tube?

    Use two sight glass's. One at the top/full level and one located at a minimum level near the bottom. Either option would be slick but the sight glass would be less likely to get hit and cracked with it being recessed when one is on a careless drunkin' wrenching' episode :D

    ABS light on, No response from module

    Could be a wiring issue. When I installed new ford hubs, originals had 295k, the passenger side set of the ABS light. It ended up being a break inside the new wiring harness.

    Turn signal wires colors/location under dash

    PM sent. Also for others I found this: On page 90-1 / 90-2 of the wiring diagram book it says: LG/WH=light green/white for the LH turn signal. LG with white stripe. WH/LB=white/light blue for the Rh turn signal. WH with light blue stripe It's a 2005 Ford manual so I hope there isn't a...

    Blown turbo/Upgrade?

    You can pull the CCv and let it vent to atmosphere then pull the hot side pipe and see how much oil is coming from the compressor side right off the turbo. Let it idle in the driveway for a bit & maybe high idle or rev it up a few times but watch to see if and/or how much oil is present...

    07 expedition gets 4bta'd

    :thumbsup: Been following this for a while great to see some good news! You're gonna have to make a cheat sheet/check list. We've been contemplating swaps but we're not sure which vehicle/motor combo would work best. Having an auto is almost a 100% as I've broken my knee, torn my ankle up...

    Blown turbo/Upgrade?

    Some in the IC is normal but any excessive amount could be seals. At 290K on the original factory turbo, I had oil seeping between the dp and the exhaust housing onto the motor and also at the dp to cat-converter ball/socket joint. When I pulled the factory turbo the exhaust side was wet w/...

    What air cleaner do you use?

    The factory donaldson gives the best filtration. I called and spoke to AFE when I had my 6.4 and they flat out told me that the factory oem filter in the 6.4 flows enough for 600hp or more. The limit of airflow is the housing. I was instructed, by AFE that the stock donaldson would be fine...

    Installing GTP-38R and new pedestal

    Golfer is The 7.3 God IMHO and his shop is still working away on the 7.3 whereas other places have moved on to bigger and better things. I want to say dieselorings carries orings in a higher grade than OEM. I was also doing some oring research and the hardness, durability, etc.. can vary...

    Installing GTP-38R and new pedestal

    The HPOP has several locations that can drip. I had the same exact decent drip coming of the bell housing. Made me think it might have been rear main, due to my older gasser days. I found the oil filled valley and in the end several of the HPOP orings were leaking.

    KC Turbos 6.0 Powerstroke Stage 1.5 Review

    I too decided to go w/ Charlie for similar reasons. He answered all my questions, had a good rep, excellent online demeanor. After some calls and emails I pulled the trigger and it was at my door just a few days later. Mine had a small dent on the compressor housing as the local delivery...

    MBRP uppipe issues and leaks

    If there is something odd or weird it always finds my projects. The new hubs arrived from ford w/ the ABS wiring having a short somewhere in the NIB harness. Shop had to use the old harness. My original KC blew oil out the exhaust and the EGR delete leaked coolant at the intake oring. FML...
