Just curious why the hp gain is so much greater on the 03-04 Powerstroke then the 05-06?

My guess is because the stock power was much lower in the earlier years. More power improvement potential.

I have my 05 set on high performance (stage 3) and RBP's exhast system and a volant intake and i cant hook up through 3rd gear! Its cool though just leaving everybody behind in black smoke!

Welcome Rollin, Mastercaster and Skeeter! Great to have ya here at PowerStroke,org! If the 03-04's have better hp gains I'd like to know why myself - I honestly didn't realize they did.
I run mine on the 100 tune every now and then just for kicks and it's just outrageous.

Oh come on Rodslinger, any good wrench knows that a winch on the front of a truck improves fuel economy. It's simple...The extra weight on the front bumper slightly lowers the front of the truck, increasing the aerodynamics of the truck and causing it to move more freely through the air with less resistance, therefore causing improved fuel economy. It's simple physics...lol

LOL!!!! Welcome to PowerStroke.org Eddy! I'll be sure and ask you to hook me up with something to tell her when I finally decide to put a lift kit on it.
