Unroll recently I wasn't aware that there were so many problems with the 6.0 and I never have any trouble with my '04 6 oh and it's pushing 100k and I also went away and it was with my family and it wasn't driven for a few months. The oil settled so I changed it jumped it off cause the battery was dead and it started right up and ran great I can't see anything going wrong either it goes like a champ
thats gotta be one if the weakest chipped 6.0s ive ever seen.......my boss had an 06 powerstroke with a programer and it would roll coal wen u stomped it
the e.p.a. causes alot of problems with diesels example : EGR valve the idea was good the application was bad. recirculating soot back into an engine is just straight up retarded. they need to find a different way to reduce exhaust gas temps and improve emissions without sacrificing reliability and power. not that the e.p.a. has anything to do with the removal of a muffler but its a step in right direction expecially if its restricted.
a company will try to sell you anything they can. it all pans out with the way money works. if you don't buy a straight pipe and put it on your truck from (A) manufacturing then (B) the mechanic doesn't get paid for fixing your jacked diesel motor. so whats the answer for people that keep the trend. stop buying products that fuck your vehicle and realize that some parts of turbo diesel motors are under 10 thousand psi and need absolute precise conditions to function.
well considering that i go to school for diesel technology and my instructor has himself personally built his own custom diesel engines you must just daily drive your rig. people who know about diesels and the anatomy of the engine and about how it was purpose built know better than to agree with what your saying the auto company wouldn't put i there if it wasn't intended to be there.
Manufacturers have to answer to a higher authority. Your comment there kinda kills this whole discussion. Why? Because why would so many aftermarket companies sell straight through exhaust kits (sans muffler and cat) if they were intended to be there? In a gas application, backpressure plays a huge roll in the life and perfomance of an engine but in TURBO diesel and gas engines, this thinking is just the opposite, you want as little backpressure as possible.
@mcmmotorsports Well you want some back pressure if your going to be a pole to pole racer but if your full throttle back pressure works against you and thats why they run open headers in pro quarter mile dragsters
Gas engines do not require back pressure either, this is a common misconception. Back pressure is not beneficial. What ALL engines need is exhaust velocity. You can put a 6" exhaust on a 350 gas engine, but the exhaust gas flow will be so slow that it will hurt performance. Too small of an exhaust and you get high back pressure and low velocity. Too big of an exhaust and you get no back pressure and even lower velocity You want to aim for no back pressure and high velocity
@JohnDN08 I will respectfully disagree on one of your comment's. When you said a 6inch exhaust will be too slow& hurt performance. I have an 08 silverado with the 5.3 V-8. I run dual 6inch wide stack's on her. It goes from the standard 3inch exhaust pipe from the cat's to the bed, there is transitions from a 3inch stock pipe, to a 4-5inch and then to 6inch stack's. Doing this has lowerd my egt's& increased the truck's performace. Unless you were talking 6inch pipe from the header's back?
@CSXtrackworker I will respectfully deny your disagreement on the grounds that every sentance in your reply has a monumental flaw in one way or another. Why are you concearned about EGT's in a N/A gas truck anyway? Did you screw with the EGR?
@scrmn68 There is nothing flawed in what I had posted. Please explain to me which part's were flawed. Even on a gas truck, the quicker you expell hot exhaust gasses, as well as increase the flow of your exhaust gasses the better it is for the motor. You are removeing the restricting stock muffler and in turn you are letting the engine exhale more efficiently. It does increase performance, on top of running a tuner on the truck. With a hihigh flow exhaust my egt's are down.
@CSXtrackworker So you gained when you chopped off your stock pipe AFTER the cats and added 2 sewer pipes to a 5.3L gasser? Are you sure? You sure your EGTs aren't down because the tuner runs more advanced timing and a richer WOT mixture? Bet you pick up another 10 by running 2x 2.5 w/ an x pipe. For the record, I believe the reference to a 6" exhaust was theoretical but from the collector by intention.
@scrmn68 Running a egt gauge back's up the validity of what I had posted, plus doing many different run's on the dyno also proves that as well. Being a certified mechanic at one time in my life give's a person helpful knowledge. But, please explain who I was wrong?
@CSXtrackworker The flaw lies in your crediting 6" pipe for the increase. Putting the increase in cross section AFTER the most restrictive parts of the system makes them gigantic exhast tips in essence. The only increase the engine has seen is the lack of restriction from the muffler(s).
the exhaust sends a sonic wave to the muffler that the muffler sends back to the piston when it opens so when it closes it has the adequate amount. try towing a huge load up a hill and letting off the gas, you will find cold air rushes to the engine causing the piston to blow. the truck was designed with the muffler in mind it's not about whether the truck will break from straight pipe it's when. it's your truck do what u want. but to me it looks like a young truck still.
I guess you don't know about turbo diesels, my buddy has a 2003 Ford 6.0L powerstroke turbo diesel and has had no cat/muffler since 2005 and has no problems due to not having them...this back pressure deal with the piston is irrelevant due to the back pressure goes to the turbo, maybe this effects gassers but I even doubt that to a point
hell ya man. I will give the 6.0's that, they do sound good. The hard part is keeping them running LOL! No man I am not putting them down. I actually owned one, and mine broke all the time. There are some good ones though. Of course.
yea there are some good ones out there but unfortunatley they were few and far between...Ford said if your 6.0 PSD got to 60K miles it would pretty much last forever, but most never got there. just deal with the EGR, ditch the old turbo and upgrade to ARP headbolts to keep the gaskets in place (which is a cab off job) and your pretty much set. they can make some great power and run with the best of them, but the trick with the 6.0 is holding all that power
glad to hear a warranty repair, considering how many were denied when word started getting around about all the issues and recalls. u still have your 6.0?
what exactly is the EGR. I know every time i take mine back in to get the same thing worked on, they talk about it and the backpressure sensor. when mine is idoling, mine sumtimes lugs down and bellars out black smoke. Never can get it fixed. Pisses me off
by definition its Exhaust gas recirculation. its a way of recirculaiting the exhaust gases for better efficiency/economy in PSD's. your best bet is to block it off, with an EGR block off plate from Gillett Diesel. it will only get worse if you mod your PSD as a more agressive tune will just throw more fuel and clog if up faster
I've NEVER heard a powerstroke with such a nice tranny it just glides through the gears, nice ass truck... did you ever encounter any problems with that 6 liter ?
why not 4"? i have a 4" turbo back system with a magnaflow cat convertor so its street legal and no doubt your system sounds nice but u aughta hear mine with the tuner and intake
Simply because all I did was cut the cat and muffler out and put a 3.5" pipe in its place. Total investment: $35.00. One day I will put a 4" setup in there.
