The next chapter of their video is on Youtube now


In their own words, with their own images:

I was cringing watching that whole video and ended up turning it off before i finished it. not a good image for diesels, especially on the road and part of our problem. I'm disappointed.

Sure was a lot of smoke and it never seemed to clean up. Not my style.

That is miserable tuning unless they only chose to run a ‘race’ tune for some reason.

I’ll be looking for only tire smoke from my 238/100’s when I get them installed in the next few weeks. We’ll see about upgrading my old S366 if it’s not ideal.

Reminds me of the truck shows on TV where they install a bunch of sponsored products and say nice things about them. Reusing the pickup foot(s) in the tank makes me a little crazy and some expensive mods with no benefits is hard to watch... But, it’s easy to be a critic. They seem like good guys.

Im not into ‘marathon builds’ because you always have to make compromises. Plus, no PAINT??? WTF, over?? Lol.

Im tempted to say delete this thread just because i dont want to be a part of exposing this to the public.
weve all
had our fun throwing copious clouds of smoke on private property when we first got into this, myself included. If social media had been around id have never put it out there.
But other people couldnt see the big picture So now we have dpfs, scr and egr

But the first video i really enjoyed, ya there was some things that can be done better, but its been a long time since theres been a new 7.3 tech video that ive seen.

i sure hope that was an extreme tune, way more fuel than what that turbo can handle for sure.

im
going to keep my mouth shut

Delete. No paint = no loss.

Meanwhile, send a production crew over here and we’ll shoot some tech videos!! Of course, it seems like I do the same thing over and over again... At least it pays the bills!!!

Todays fun is oil cooler rebuild and cooling system flush to remove oil from the cooling system. Not glamorous enough for yourtube success. Need $10k in shiny parts to keep people watching.
