I know there are several of you who can answer this questions for me.

What is the difference's between the 1994.5-1997 powerstroke and the 1999-2003 powerstroke?

Thanks, no reason I am asking really, just curious becasue they each have their own forum.

Besides the body style. The newer ones have bigger injectors, and are intercooled...different turbo setup(newer trucks are wastegated turbo's). Those are the major differences.

 

we used to be all in one forum about a year ago but then they changed that . oh well!! the sd also have an electric fuel pump versus our mechanical. we also have wing windows they dont

 

will the 99+ injectors fit our truck? Maybe a cheaper alternative to the beans stage 1's..

 

Yes, but you'll need a chip programed for them. And to find a good set of injectors from a superduty for less than waht ya pay for Beans would be hard to do. Stage I's are a little over 100 bucks a injector. New ones are $200 plus.

 

so what would you do? Get the stage 1's or just go with a chip? I know injectors are expensive but so are programmers...I aslo have a 97, and I want mine to smoke like crazy.

 

i would do both. i did

 

i guess im jusg jealous cuz i see all these cummin's with chips puttin out some serious smoke.. is it just the chip that does this or do i need inijectors...?

 

well i had a chip with the fuel 7 setting before my bigger injectors and it would smoke pretty good. but not like it does with injectors.


and this wasnt even very good for my truck

 

I soo wish i had the injectors.. I saw a cummy today that laid the smoke out... I'm not familar with chips or injectors.. I just purchased gauges for my 97.' Would it be cheaper to get a 6-step programmer than a chip? I know injectors will have to be a long long term investment.

 

hmmm

i have a 4 position chip i can adjust on the fly. dont believe they make a style like that for an obs in programmers/tuners.




they make chips with 3,4,6 settings or maybe even more by now.
you should call tony wildman.

 

I know smoke it cool looking and all. But, my understanding of it is basically if you're bellow'n out a black cloud you're just blowing unused HP out your tail pipe. Right? Personall I'd rather have the HP and TQ than a lot of smoke.

That's just me

 

black smoke is unburned fuel, you need more air or BOOST
