1985 Ford F250 XLT 6.9L diesel with stock and hypermax exhau

[guppyelf]

i have 1985 w a new 1993 7.3. 5star auto c.6. d.60 w 3.5 strait pipe it will pull w the new stuff.

[dunn98632]

Hypermax sounds better for sure man.

[vegoildieselguy]

i think he means 1100 ft lbs of torque after it goes through the transmission and you multiply it out in low gear and then multiply it through your differential

[JBURNJROLL1]

Sounds great!

[kawirider206]

It would prolly take more than 1100 ft lbs to beat a fucking gt500 dude, my 99 cummins is over 500 hp and 1200 ft lbs, I wouldnt try a gt500

[86F250]

whats the 6.9's get for mpg????

[rotundrooster]

Stock Y pipe is crap,need to rework it or dual it out.

[tpvalley]

Is this a manufactured performance exhaust for an old ford diesel or is it a home made system using hypermax parts?

sounds good.

[kklein41291]

Nice hypermax...

[FordFan505]

The sucky part is power i read in international 6.9l Engine that it produced olny 170hp and 310lbsft compared to the 7.3l best diesel engine

[2strokedetroitdiesel]

7.3 and 6.9 idis are essentialy the same engine 7.3 is just 6.9 punched out, powerstroke 7.3l are a whole diffrent ball game! 6.9 is a fantastic motor it does what it was designed to do pull and get decent fuel econmy and be reliable, slap a turbo on there, air intake, exaust, and turn up the injector pump and youll get some decent horse power for idi trucks

[Gorbachev4Life]

can the 6.9's handle the turbo?

[2strokedetroitdiesel]

Yes if I were doing it though Id deffinatly look into aftermarket head studs ande gaskets

[Gorbachev4Life]

and they were non turbo which takes out a lot of road and highway performance.

[mo1971fordcrew]

Wow sounds great

[63candymatic]

what kind of fuel mileage was typical for these engines? Manual or Auto.

[hayabusa122]

for mine i get bout 25 and its a manual. and its got over 350xxxxxx miles and STILL runnin strong

[IHDiesel436]

should i buy a 1983 6.9 with 109,000 for 1450

[benhanson3]

thats a deal

[nathanreed94]

@IHDiesel436 has it been wreck motor rebuild what have you but if the bodys good i would

[IHDiesel436]

@nathanreed94 I ended up buying a 96 7.3 ext cab shortbed 5 spd with 122,000 for 7500 its pretty nice

[douger0500]

there's an 85 f250 4x4 for 750 bucks

[northeasteg6]

@IHDiesel436 i just got a 87 6.9, quadcab, duallie with 192k for $900

[wignigeater]

@northeasteg6 I'm getting a 1984 ATS turbo 6.9 making 1100 FT LBS of torque to the wheels...it's 4x4...decked out all the way with only 90,000 miles for 2500, it's faster than most cars and has stacks, can't out beast stacks, lol

[kawirider206]

@wignigeater Fuck man, I bet its nowhere near 1100 ft lbs

[wignigeater]

@kawirider206 yes it is, I saw it on the dyno, and it beat a gt500 on the track

[brpf3504x4]

I have a 86 with a 6.9 and with the injector pump turned up and a banks turbo with injectors it will outrun my powerstroke..

[smartepants777]

Sounds nice as crap.

[DanielJaegerFilms]

How do you like that engine? I'm thinking of getting a 6.9 diesel engine, and just wanted your opinion on it. Thanks!

[CDX825]

Its not a power monster like your powerstroke but its easy to work on parts are not real expensive and if taken care of will last a long time.

[Xx69roadrunnerxX]

Straight pipe it bro! Better hp, torque, sound, and fuel economy.

[MrTpengineer]

@Xx69roadrunnerxX Tuned strait pipes, regulare ones don't have enough backflow, I/E less hp, fuel milage, and tourque. But your right, no muffler means more of everything :) Tuned strait pipes actually give it more of a rumble sound too >:)

[CDX825]

Anyone have any idea what type of tubing hypermax uses for their exhaust?

[bakeretniesman]

ya they use galvonized steel.

[hockeyroks4ever]

sound similar to the old chevy 6.5's dont you think ?

[ryandarge]

nice! did you take out the 'soup bowl' on the intake cover? and if so did it make a big diff?

[NitroCaya]

how much was the exhaust

[bakeretniesman]

hey my dad works for hypermax

[DieselMikey084]

hear the difference? That is music to my ears

[uscar17]

Awesome

[250sxwheeliepop]

Put a 5" tip if you want to eliminate the gas job portion of the sound. Very nice improvement with just 1" though

[schneidnasty]

Hmm! She sounds pretty nice! I'm definitely looking into it for my truck now.

[massltca]

Except for the diesel rattle it kinda sounds lika big block, nice!!

[ekati460]

technically it is a big block, 420ci

[jdkl81]

Nice turbo or no turbo on that truck? I have one just like it and its soon to get a bigger exhaust and ATS non gated turbo :) Thanks for sharing, that Hypermax exhaust rocks!

[BreakerDan86]

6.9 idi Internationals did not have turbos unless they were added aftermarket.
