Just finished doin my Foil Delete..Not as impressed as I'd hoped I can hear the turbo a little more but not what I had expected... anyway It looks alot better under the hood
THank You, I just bought it 3 weeks ago my VERY FIRST BOUGHT AND Paid for by me. My rents have an 01 7.3 crewcab one ton with a 110 chip. I was wonderingi f you know of where to get a good waste gate and wicked wheel
howcome you haven't done it any specific reason? just curious. cause I've heard people say huge waste but I've also heard people love it guess it's just opinion
There is no real HP gain, spool up is bit quicker, so I suppose if you dyno'd the same truck, with and without the WW the power curve may be different, but what the real difference would be, it would be slight. There is a claim that EGT's drop as well, or at least that's what the side of my box says but I don't see anything significant.
It does whistle for sure, although I recently went stright pipe, and now what turbo whistle I gained is drowned out well almost.
If you had to pay a shop the labor of 3-4 hours to install the WW I would not do it, that much money could be spent elsewhere on real performance gains IMHO.
..on the flip side, if you can do it yourself, or better yet, you and your drunk friends can do it, then yeah, it's worth it.
Ill try to get one as soon as he's up and running again. The damm fuel pump went out again on me last night.:blowup::rant: This makes like the fourth or fifth time the damm thing has went out in the past 2000 miles. The last time they even changed the sending unit in the tank. Guess its time to call Pat and Larry and get a Fass and while Im at it I guess Ill do the intank mods as well.
I told the old lady that I have to spend the $700 for the Fass or the next one could leave us hundreds of miles from the house instead of blocks. LOL
