If you don't have a chip, you may not get turbo surge. I had it bad after installing the DP-TUNER.

I don't have surge now.

It is chipped as I said in post 54. If it's not surging now, I surely don't want to lose any boost, waste time and money to change the impeller.

You can get a cover for that "ugly" filter from Pete (F250_) to make it look better.

I saw that! I have always been a fan of outerwears skin filters on offroad stuff. Nice to see it put to use on a truck.

SO, there's not much more bang for the buck mods to do at this stage of the 7.3?

Hello people of the Internet.
Been on this forum for over 2 years and finally getting around to posting.
Found this thread and it fits my future needs, so I thought I would dig it back out of storage.

I'm running a '95 F-350 ex-ambulance.
Currently looking at going with the S&B cold air intake, MBRP 4" turbo back exhaust and the TS Performance 6 position chip w/BRV.

I mostly haul my 17' travel trailer with my rig with both loaded to the gills. Going over the Sierras last year was a slooooowww process in stock format (save for the transmission, which is a Jasper HD unit with their bigger oil cooler).

Other than my above parts plan, can anyone recommend anything crucial that I should get?
My budget is $1000 and I have found all the above parts online for right about $900.


TIA

MTDewX..."AIS"?..."MBRP"?

Check summit racing

mbpr is an exhaust manufacturer...

.

AIS (don't quote me on this) Air intake system? different filter and intake hoses/tubes

I went with a 6637 system on mine...seen here
Ford - 99-03 Super Duty 7.3L - Intakes, Intercoolers & Related - Intake Systems & Replacement Filters - 6637 Intake - Riffraff Diesel Performance
or
AIS here

6637 - really loud compressor side of the turbo, but inexpensive. Very easy to remove for service.

S&B - pretty quiet, very good filtration, big breather for bigger sticks. Slight pain in the butt to remove the snout or to swap the filter.

AIS - dead quiet, top filtration, can handle anything a stock stick can dish out. Easy to remove snout and crazy easy to swap the filter. Bigger sticks in your future? S&B is next-quietest and breathes better.
