Best chip for 6.0 ford deisel
Ford finally stepped up and gave me such a stupid deal on a brand new 6.0 after having 3 issues with the motor, so I'm going with a new ford plus could'nt find a lbz equipped like I wanted, looks like the banks, edge, bullydog are the best,also probably going with the turbo back 5" exhaust again, what would all you deisel guys recommend for performance enhancements and what about the banks bundle? thanks Is there a place that is best to buy this stuff or gives oso discounts. I currently have the edge with attitude 2 years old but just not sure if it is the best or up to date,

My superchips tuner has been great in mine. It runs very hard and and can be taken in and out very easily. I drive another 6.0L with the edge, and pulling the same boats the Superchips has lower egts. The edge has pretty rough manors every once in a while. I like the shifts more with the superchips too.

Heres my 6.0 after adding the superchips tuner. It had a muffler delete pipe on it. This saturday I had the Silverline Stainless duals put on. 3.5" downpipe, no cat, 4" pipes and 5" tips. Sounds real good, and looks great, especially when I nail it and black smoke pours out both sides

WWW.innovativediesel.com ask for eric.. SCT
www.DIESELPERFORMANCEPARTS.COM ask for Mark Craig MBRP cool duals exhaust. and get some gauges from either. When you talk to mark Craig he will try and sell you a Edge Platinum which is good but nowhere as good as the SCT for power and shifting. Trust me I own both. I also own both the chevy and Ford that you looked at and bought. I turned a 13.71 a few months ago on my xtreme race tune which is my daily driver and tow up to 8k pounds, anything more I use one of my other files and it takes 45 seconds to change out. Check out what Troutly said www.dieselstop.com go to aftermarket 6.0 New custom tunes came out and are perfect and more driver friendly. Call if you have Qs. Jeff

SCT for the fords only way to go. for an upgraded transmission look at a suncoast set up. For exhaust look toward mbrp or silverline. With the big programs I would reccomend running a boost and pyro gauge on the truck.
For the chevy depending on what year model and motor it has ie lb7 lbz lly would be the deciding factor. i have the quadzilla race tune with a mac intake and a 5" exhaust with some other goodies but with this set up and a pusher pump for fuel I am able to crank out 486 hp and just under the 1000trq mark. When all cranked up with the drugs and stacked I am well over that mark on stock turbo but a built suncoast tranny to get it to the ground.

We have had some great results with the bully dog, triple dog. You can shift on the fly with the programmer itself or you can add the outlook monitor so you can shift on the fly and monitor all the vitals.

Re: Best chip for 6.0 ford deisel
I personally went with the Edge/with attitude a Bassani 4" turbo back exhaust and an Airaid intake box/filter. I went with the Edge because I could remove it for warranty issues if need be and it leaves no telltale footprint for the dealer to find as it plugs in to the outside of the computer instead of reprogramming the computer itself thru the obdII port. The downside of the Edge unit was when I traded trucks a couple of months ago, the unit from my 04 wouldn't work with my 06 and Edge won't update the existing units, ya gotta replace it....that sucked.
