hey guys i have an 05 f250 lariat with a 6.0l diesel with 103k miles, im in need of a FICM, i removed it tonight and trying to get last minute ideas on where to get it repaired at, i was looking into USAFICM.com any other suggestions or recomendations? also what is your input on the 40hp upgrade? ive heard good and bad things about it, (keeping the code in the computer is good or bad?)
About the only person that will be recommended around here... ask for Ed
Josh
i know i may be sounding frugal but howcome his prices are a lot higher then other places i see online? ficmfixer.com, usaficm, etc... any differences ?

Ed knows what he is doing, uses high quality parts and great customer service.
I am once again humbled by you guys. A million thanks!
To the OP, there IS a difference with what we do vs our competitors. If you are looking for less expensive alternatives, I have seen 'repairs' down as little as $35. The trouble is that they are cheap, too.
We work on both sides of the FICM, are 6.0 enthusiasts ourselves (one of my techs is working on finalizing a deal on his own 6.0 to get into the brotherhood, even!), offer a lifetime warranty that we positively and absolutely stand behind (sometimes even when we shouldn't due to what can only be called abuse...), and can re-program your module when we have it to make you fall in love with your 6.0 all over again!
Recently had my FICM rebuilt by Ed. Also got the Atlas 40 tune too. Since then it's been as cold as 0 degrees (F) and it started like a champ even without being plugged in. I've picked up 2 1/2 MPG and the throttle response and power is very nice!
Very, very pleased with what they did. Worth every penny.
Hey NixonInc! Well...I've got more than just one Kearns, Utah customer (so I'd be lying if I told you that I knew who you were), but I am thrilled to know that you are pleased!
If your Batteries and Alt are not in tip top shape , you take a chance of burning up the FICM, the charging system has to be. and a BIG Thank you to Ed and his Crew aswell
Thanks for reply- ed seems the best choice! Anyways what about these upgrades with hp? Any input?
I HIGHLY recommend you get Ed to apply the economy or Atlas 40 flash when he repairs your FICM. I run some pretty big PCM tunes so I went with the economy as recommended by my tune writer. Most here don't run as aggressive stuff as I do and go with the Atlas 40. They're not really about HP as much as they are MUCH better drivability. Both are SAFE for stock head bolts.

Yes i do have stock head bolts- also i do NOT have a tuner, would that be an issue?
