Upgrades and Aftermarket - 6.0L EngineUpgrading and adding aftermarket equipment to your 2003-Up Super Duty or Excursion with 6.0L Power Stroke diesel engine. Please confine discussion of topics in this forum to those items that are specific to the 6.0L Power Stroke engine.
Ive found 2 that claim better HP and mileage. Any thoughts on them? This is my first diesel and I would like a little more acceleration and fuel economy would be nice also
Do some reading on programmer related head gasket failures before pulling the trigger. Ya Ya, head gaskets (bolt) failures can occur without a programmer but if your concerned at all in doing what you can to maintain any degree of reliability, skip the programmer ( and the cold air intake, exhaust, propane, etc.....) The 6.0L has enough weaknesses.

Pay no attention to Beavis, read here about the hundreds of 6.0's that have no problems at all, are chipped to the hilt, and have 100K+ miles on them. SOME of the 6.o's had issues, most did not. When your done, go with the SCT from DJ, or innovative. You will not regret it.

I have no problems with my Bully Dog, it has Std programs unlike the SCT's custom programs

You can get STD programs from SCT also, but most choose to go custom to have the truck tuned to their exact likeing.

Run as fast as you can from the predator.

Even faster......
And save your money on the intake. Read on here a while and you'll find a lot of guys disappointed in being parted from their money, and some even going back to the stock intake.

Check out the Edge juice Platinum with A2 monitor. Lots of features and adjustability. It is more money but you get a lot more for it. You get what you pay for.
