Free HP?

So I have a 09 f-350 with the 6.4 powerstroke and was wondering if there was anything I could do to get any more power out of this thing without having to buy anything for it. Like maybe a way to raise the boost or something I dunno. If anyone knows of any free ways to bump up the power I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks either way

There might not be "free" upgrades but there's really cheap ones. The problem with those is they typically don't work as advertised and it's kind of a shady industry. They take advantage of people looking to save money, hoping they don't know very much, and you can end up doing more harm than anything else.

You need to look at it like this. That truck was at VERY least 50 THOUSAND dollars and it's a precision power making machine. Modern trucks are engineered to exacting specifications and when you change those, even by the smallest amount, you risk major damage. DON'T cheap out on it. Whatever you do to it, make sure it's the best and installed by the best. Spending a few hundred extra $$ can end up saving you literally thousands in the long run. I know it sounds like a cop out answer but save up and do it right the first time.
