Transmission Worries.
hey I have a 2004 6.0 Powerstroke with 175,000 miles on it. I recently installed an S&B cold air intake, custom 4" turbo-back straight pipe exhaust, bulletproofed, and now I just got a SCT X4 Flash programmer. I was wondering if I would be able to run the performance tune without having to worry about the transmission which is stock. or is that too much power for it?

Others will be more specific, but i'm fairly sure you're no where near the hp needed to kill your transmission with a tuner and those upgrades. Stock should hold near 600 hp at the crank or something, not 100% but ballpark

Depends on your right foot, can be higher mileage usually, and can also be considerably less if you like your turbo to stay around 20 psi haha.
If your cruising the highway like normal you should see a better mpg than without the tune.

Normally I avereraged 15.5-16 milers per gallon and with the tuner and a lead foot I got 15.1 running the street and performance tune. Just going to drive normal on the performance tune and see what I get
