the best Tunes are not as cut and dry but the Best FICM tunes are

buy PHP FICM programmer

Thanks Jeremy. Also gotta pick up and intake from you too.

Trying to finish up my build and spreading money across the bored is getting tiring. From the motor and drivetrain, to suspension is tough to comprehend needs and wants lol.

I have the BPD 6 phase ficm. I tried 58v setting and it did absolutely nothing...no difference what so ever. Honestly I wouldn't waste your time with the 58v...just stay with 48v. I switched mine back to 48v. Ive been running a tuned ficm since 2008...a tuned ficm makes a big difference.

Thanks strokin6L! I think I may just buy the PHP ficm tuner for now and go from there

Not much man. Just another beautiful day down here in good ol GA.

The FICM tuner and SCT tuner actually work in parallel to each other. The SCT will tune the PCM while the FICM tuner will tune just the FICM.

The best way to think about it, the FICM tuner will compliment the PCM tune to help throttle response, driveability, and smooth out the fuel delivery.

Jay, shoot me a price on those FICM tuners please.
....it will work with the Bullet Proof Diesel 58v 6-phase, correct?

I seem to be confused on the FICM thing. Seems like there is 2 options and I have no clue which one is the best. My truck is an 04 with 123k miles truck seems to run good so far. Sounds like you can send your entire FICM in for a rebuild and tune or just buy a FICM- tuner? Now does the FICM tuner come with tunes on it or?

Yes it comes with 4 different tunes, economy, Atlas 40, Atlas 80 and atlas100

The FICM tuner comes with 4 different tunes....load any one of the 4 of choice....correct?

 

[strokin6L]

Correct...just remember to pull ficm relay under the hood first. Then reinstall after its tuned.
