Re: Best chip for 6.0 ford deisel
My '05 6.0L I put the Diablo Sport Predator programer and a Banks Exhaust. Fun as hell and will pull down a building. Easy to put in and out. This thing is a rocket. I may in the near future get the Banks intake kit.
Go to www.brpowersource.com and talk to Bernie. He will ship anywhere.

Re: Best chip for 6.0 ford deisel
I went with the full banks big hoss bundle on my 05. It may not be the fastest according to the ones that race them, but it does the job just fine. I liked being able to get everything i needed from one place. I have towed over 16,000lbs with it no problem (on multiple occasions), it is a lot better than the 02 7.3 that it replaced. Some say it is more expensive but i found by the time you get all the parts you are at the same price with all the others.

True?
True?
My problem is that I save fuel when I am on the highway cruising in economy mode but blow it out the exhaust when I stomp on it leaving the light...

I currently have the edge with attitude 2 years old but just not sure if it is the best or up to date,

The SCT's #s speak for themselves.
On the 2006 it is the only unit that has real low end grunt!

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.

Jeff, thanks for giving me Erics number, those guys are cool and very knowledgeable, as you probably know I'm going with the SCT and 4" 409 turbo back, extreme street on the sct. After doing my homework, no question it is the best currently on the market, 22mph I can live with and 13.5 quater, I think i can take my friends LBZ. new truck is awesome, give me a call sometime, hope your doing well, come see us at loto, jim 636 236-4141
