Ok. So my buddy bought a 6.0. ......... I know right ?? Anyways, he's wanting to buy a programmer or a chip. And I don't want to lead him astray. So I though if ask for some insight on which one he should buy and why ? I don't know a lot about those motors except to be careful. And I don't want to fry his PCM or anything. Anyway so if you guys have any info on the best route to go for a 6.0 whether it be a chip or programmer I'd appreciate it? Also if He straight pipes iut is it as tough as the 7.3 where you gotta beat in the firewall ? Idk any of those details and just tryin to help him have a reliable 6.0. If that's possible

 

Exhaust is not near as difficult.

The 6.0l pcm's are hardier than ours. Lots of guys run programmers. I think the SCT with custom tunes in the most recommended set up.

Also make sure he gets the high idle mod done. Idling kills those things.

 

sct tuner, EGR and EGR cooler delete, and head studs with new gaskets will make it a very reliable engine.
