Looking for Perf. Shop near Long Beach for my V10
Hello from Long Beach.
I'm new to the forum, and am looking to do a few mods to my truck in an effort to help it tow my 9,200 lbs. trailer. Any recommendations of a reliable service shop would be appreciated. Vehicle Spec: 1999 Ford F250 SuperDuty SuperCab 2WD V10 Transmission: 5-SPD Manual Engine: 6.8 EFI-SOHC (W) Horse Power: 265-275 (120th off of the line in Kentucky) Rear Gear Ratio: 3.73 (stock) Miles on Engine: 66,000 (not my daily driver) Modifications: Suspension Lift: 4" Tires: 35" x 12.50 x 17" Cat-Back: Borla - Split Dual Exhaust Possible Performance Enhancements: 01. Swap rear-end gears a. should I go with 4.56's or 4.88's? b. mpg vs. power? c. after I re-gear, do I need to do anything to the truck (electronically), so that it knows the ratio is different? 02. Power Module / Tuner () a. is the X3 by 5 Star Tuning the only choice, or is there a better option? 03. Headers a. recommendations welcome. 04. Trans Cooler a. recommendations welcome. Any other recommended mods are welcome. Thanks. |
Hey Rob...welcome to FTE.
I'm not a V10 guy but I can tell you that Mike @ 5 star seems to be the guy that's most well respected on these forums...several people are running his tunes and I haven't heard any complaints. Sorry I can't help you on the shop...hopefully someone will have some suggestions. |
Steve:
Thanks for the reply. I'll for sure consult Mike and hopefully, I'll get a reply regarding a good mechanic shop that deals with Super Duty trucks nearby. |
