I want to turn my 7.3 up and make it smoke like that but how does turning it up like that make a difference on drivability? does it run fine down the road? does it run hot?

[88f250coalroller]

i drive it every day it got more power than befor you can tell and i just put a cold air intake in and that made a slight more hp and my foot not in to the floor when iam doing 65mph

[farmboi78]

sweet. i am definitly interested in doing it and i am also going to put a turbo on mine to help build more power

[88f250coalroller]

ya i was going to but the max psi you could run was 10 and i couldent see spending $2000 on a ats turbo kit thats  2x what i paid for the truck

@SuperJohndeere4020 injector pump you cant turn up the fuel pump (fuel pump runs off of the motor)

[313foxbody420]

ttb or nah?

[50fordman]

yeah its probably not too smart to turn it all the way up because you will eventually burn holes in the pistons from it running to hot

[hooksmason]

do you have a pyro meter? everyone keeps telling me i better get one before i turn mine up any. i have a 93 f250 4x4 5speed 7.3 idi non turbo and on all the post there telling me to get one?

I love that idi it's bad ass I got a 93 ford idi with a banks side winder turbo I wanna get it to smoke like that

[SuperJohndeere4020]

What do you turn up, the fuel pump or the injector pump?

[allcustomdesigns]

whats your mpg?

[bigbraunboy]

same way you turn it up on a 6.9 lol

[bigboi1245]

how do u turn up the fuel pump on the old 7.3?

[rippin74camaro]

If you want to be safe, I turned my pump 1.5 flats. Thats just enough when its floored you see a slight bit of smoke, and power increase. It really wakes em up, I was surprised. Fuel mileage seems to be the same also.
