A friend bought a 2008 like mine with 125k miles on it. We removed the EGR and coolers and DPF last weekend. He tuned with an SCT tuner and took me for a ride yesterday..wholly crap what a difference compared to stock. I will see how his does for a while before I tear into mine. I have an edge evolution I use for gauges. Im temped to tune even though I still have my emissions stuff but I just bought an extended warranty so I'm torn. I know the edge will not feel like a deleted truck but these trucks can really move tuned...I am impressed.

 

just bought 08 6.4 to replace my creampuff 05 6.0 (woman decided to pass in no passing zone) took test drive in 08 with bully dog programer set on performance when tires squeeled going into 3rd. and salesman looked like he was about to s#$@%t hisself i backed out of it bought truck blew off v10 on ride home desided to take bully dog off wile i still halve drivers lic.

 

Good idea. Bully Dog is a DPF-On tune. Very bad for your truck. It's a dirty tune causing frequent regens.

 

Is the Edge Evolution considerd a dirty tune also since its a DPF on-tune? Will using it cause more Regens?

 

Most likely. The ONLY tuner I'd recommend for use with DPF-On is the Banks Six Gun.

 

Rip that crap off of there! Unleash the beast!!

Im running a H&S Minimaxx with all the hippie parts deleted. And my god, it still makes me smile and i drive the thing everyday.

On the real though, how much good can a DPF-on tune do? Ive never even heard of such a thing.. Not that thats saying much though..

These things any good?

 

Has anyone around here heard that EFI Live is soon to release their tuning software for the Ford 6.4L and 6.7L?

With all the heat on DPF delete tuners, I can't see anyone expanding their product offering that will be worthwhile.

 

Hmm... A friend of mine is deep into EFI stuff and he informed me just today. I guess we'll see what comes of it.

Hate to say it, but yes, Senix had one on his '08 Super Duty and loved it.

 

I had actually ordered a banks six gun with IQ but they were on a 45 day back order so I decided to go with H&S. Been very pleased. Worked out well because I ended up changing careers and now do a lot of city driving. Eliminating the DPF was the best thing I could do.

 

The Banks "DPF on" tunes do help.
I am using the Banks IQ with the Automind..it has the "clean tunes" similar to the six gun and they do decrease the regens and improve MPG a bit...I have since deleted the exhaust plug with the GearboxZ DPFr 4.0 and stack the Automind. I get very little black smoke driving around. Plus!..the power and torque are impressive, at least for me. I pulled my fiver up a 6% grade the other day at 75mph, passing cars with ease. Only hit ~1000 deg max EGT and 70% engine load. That was with the Banks Tow tune and CAI option setting. Before deleting, I would have maybe made 70 mph up that grade but would have had 1300 deg EGT. And if it decided to kick in a regen in the middle of the grade, forget it..It woulda stumbled and slowed to 65 or less.
