Got the SCT tuner squared away. Recovered my stock file and added the two upgraded files for "after" the upgrades..


Bad news.. Both up pipes were cracked. Not I know why it sounded like he wind section of the Boston philharmonic under my hood. Anyway, a quick email to sunrise ford got me two brand new pipes for 100$ less then the Vegas dealer wanted for just the drivers side up pipe.. So I am am good to go but probably not getting my truck back Monday. Maybe Tuesday evening but I can wait.

I am really happy with this hop so far..

It will be ready soon and once you hammer the skinny pedal a couple of times you'll forget all about this wait.

Here is one of 2 pics I have,

This one makes me nervous, but also happy that I bought a kit to replace all the little annoying fittings and screens.

That ripped screen means that my timely oil changes were needed. It is the high pressure oil pump screen. The pump fires the injectors (3-4000+ PSI I think), they run very tight tolerances and the sludge in the oil could cause a failure and this screen is supposed to stop it. I have new injectors so I am not worried about it.

Planning ahead is nice, when I do it!!

You basically always replace the Hpop screen when doin the oil cooler.

Looks like good progress Dave.

 

[Mixedbreed]

Jake, think I should replace the HPOP? Never had an issue, just a cold stumble

 

[agjake11]

Not unless your having an issue yet. There's no aftermarket upgraded Hpop for 05+ yet so I'd hang on till you really need one

 

[Mixedbreed]

That is what I decided. I can do it myself anyway, down the road.
