Faq About Customizing Your Ford Truck
Question: What are the advantages of installing a turbonetics turbocharger upgrade on my diesel Powerstroke engine? Are the advantages really worth that big price tag? Answer: Although the parts alone on a turbonetics turbocharger upgrade are fairly pricey (about $2500 and up), most serious drivers agree that the results are worth it. Installing a turbonetics turbocharger means lots more hp. The main advantage to installing a turbonetics turbocharger is that you won’t have that annoying turbo lag, when you get really slow acceleration upon starting your truck up from zero, which can sometimes be dangerous when you’re at a stoplight and surrounded by impatient drivers. The turbonetics turbocharger also has other advantages related to more power and higher efficiency, like a lot more power when you’re towing something behind the truck. Question: What kind of software does a Powerstroke (6.7) engine use? Answer: All Powerstroke diesel engines use Ford software, regardless of whether they were manufactured by Navistar International Corporation or Ford Motor Company. Question: I’m thinking of getting an upgraded grille for my truck, which I use a lot off roading. Besides their obvious cool looking sizzle, what else will a better grille offer my truck? Answer: The grille is the first thing people notice about your truck, so of course it does add a lot of that awesome cool factor to your set of wheels. It looks powerful and fierce. The grille also protects your radiator from road debris, dirt, bugs, rocks, and other hazards of the road. If you go off roading a lot where you encounter a lot of this kind of stuff, then you should find that a higher quality grille would do a lot more for your engine and radiator (on a practical standpoint) than a higher quality grille would do for a fancy truck that sticks to smooth city streets. Question: Will installing an EGR delete kit give me more hp? Answer: Usually, installing a Powerstroke EGR delete kit won’t result in noticeable hp gains. It might feel like more hp, though, because the EGR sometimes causes delays and hesitation when you’re in certain gears. When you remove the EGR delete, you get a smoother and more powerful feeling ride, although you technically haven’t increased the hp. When you do an EGR delete, you’ve removed an obstacle that was holding back some of the engine’s power.
