Talking Another Atta Boy For Ed

Well after watching voltage drop all winter on start up on my FICM I pulled and sent it to Ed for the Premium service as had the atlas 40 bump as well.
Ed did convince me to pull the alt and have it checked as well I did not think there was a problem there but for piece of mind I did it anyway, It was O.K.
But I had been looking at different options for alts had a contact for the L/N 230 so I got it and installed. Nice unit and voltage readings were improved while the g/p's were still on right after startup.
Did the FICM & alt about a month or so back but had not taken any road trips to see if there were any fuel economy increases. So two weekends ago blasted to Waco for a two day Motorcycle race @ Waco Eagles club. ( A great bunch of guys) Two bikes & gear and me & two riders not much weight at all maybe 1000 lbs. in the bed. I am VERY pleased Lie o Meter stayed in the 23 to 24 mpg range the whole darn trip and speeds were almost never below 70 mph and usually more like 75+ Hand calculated reality was more like 21.3 to 22 but heck I never was much more than 19 on a good day with a tail wind and never a tick over 70 mph. Now I can not give Ed all of the credit for the increased fuel economy because back in November I did the EGR delete but I think all of the up-grades combined have gotten me the best fuel mileage I have ever seen in the 8 years I have had this truck.
Oh and the atlas 40 is Good Stuff cept I will defiantly have to put new rear tires on next fall if not sooner and now saving for the SCT & some custom tunes...

So as the saying goes Atta Boy Ed! I am yet another Happy customer.

Bill.

Depending on what you are looking for contact Jimmy Phillips at WPE for custom tuning. You will not believe the difference in custom tuning that is tailored for your exact truck setup. The performance is unreal. He is on a fb page as well, I reccomend you join if you have not already. It's Ford 6.0 Powerstroke...Questions, Answers, No b.s. Great page for the 6.0 owner.
