6.0l power chips

Is anyone aware of damage that might be done to the 6.0 by installing a new power chip?

Do search on chips or programmers; I would suggest reading and then making a choice.
Lots of data here at FTE.
Great reading

And I got the Diablo Predator programmer from Ken here...
ALL of the modules/programmers give you the WOW factor on these 6.0L's !!!
but while none are perfect yet, ALL give you a kick in the pants you can't believe !

yes i would recomend the diablo predator or just one of the diablo chips, either the delta chip which gives you 3 different settings with the flick of the switch, two rated hp's or stock, or just the regular chip programmed to one of the 3 rated hp's, but anything over 54 hp, you should install guages and 4" exhast! to deal with the increased temps.

I have the Predator and it ROCKS. There are no EGT issues with stock exhaust at the 65 HP setting.
It is the best add for the money. Tim here at FTE is the best servicing dealer from what I've seen.
