No, it is not possible. Anything that adds 70HP worth of fuel will raise the EGT's accordingly.

It's just my opinion, but I would shy away from products with that sort of inaccuracy in their advertising.

Run run fast, I hear the old Barnum & Bailey saying heading your way real fast!!!!! If you increase fuel yuo will increase EGT, no two ways around that without other mods to help cool it back down etc. Call us if you want we have all the major manufacturers and can advise you the best way to go based on how you use your truck etc.

My father has it on his '03 7.3L. No gauges either .

He claims that he gets 20 mpg with it in his CC 4x4 F250, but I think he's full of it. Paid over $500 smackers for it too!

I certainly don't like how the CEL light comes on every time you have to give it some go-juice.

I paid pretty close to $500 for my Diablo Predator, Pillar mount, and all of my gauges (I shopped around real hard.....Pillar mount and Predator were from motorhaven)!


My advice would be to avoid it. Get something like tuner or a chip. You'll be much happier, and your money will stretch a bit further most likely.
