Can you do a video on the tuner itself and what all it can do? Is the 12v tune any additional hp or just for sound?😊

Valve springs help with boost blowing the valves open on a diesel. Most people don't spin them that much faster than stock to worry about floating the valve train. Push rods make sense if you stiffen the springs but critical if you have an aggressive cam. Agreed that lift pump, head studs, and transmission are a must. The Fleece bypass is what I will install when I replace my clutch.

@2L8CO Год назад

Andrew, another awesome video. What a beautiful truck you have created. Great advice for a solid tune that will support reliability and power. I love my 03 HO with many of the reliable mods you talk about. Many thanks to your thoughtful knowledge. Patrick

my 06' 5.9 dyno'd 426hp/898tq on just a bullydog GT tuner at max tune, with a straight pipe exhaust. Really doesn't take much with these trucks!

@adamroos906 Год назад

Just got my 2004.5 Cummins a few days ago and people make then sound sluggish stock but truck came with a 4" exhaust and S&B intake installed and I think it rips really good stock. I wanted a 650 HP truck but having finally driven one I think 400-500 is plenty!!!!! I'll be able to save a lot of money only doing 400-500 HP vs 650 now :D

@200130769 Год назад

Exactly my thoughts as well. People forget they are still heavy duty trucks meant for pulling. Not race cars. Power to weight is a real thing. These things make horrible race cars lol. 400 to 500hp is perfect though. Pull like a freight train

625’s are definitely overkill for that level of power. However a great base for when you get bored and go for more at some point. L19’s are a more economical option for stud that is stronger than the typical arp 2000/425 stud that most people opt for the first time around.

I like seeing a guy that is happy about not seeing smoke lol. I personally decided to go the 6.4 hemi route in a 3/4 ton but now I'm looking into doing a g56 swap on the truck. Mechanically the g56 should fit and the swap will be similar to a cummins however I will need to make new fuel lines. The factory lines go over the transmission right where the g56 shifter would go through the floor. Did you know that before the lines cross over the trans the are plastic? Cost cutting at it's finest I guess.

@PlaneSaddles Год назад

Early 04 305hp Cummins 6spd. My plan has always been about the same as you for the support mods, minus the valve work (I don't hardly push 2500rpm), but the power addatives are going to be hardware in the forms of mild turbo, injectors, and the minimalist of tunes. Have had the truck 19 years and still not very far into the list. Lol

@JustDiesels Год назад

Honestly you’d probably be plenty happy with tunes and head studs alone!

@PlaneSaddles Год назад

@JustDiesels Head studs definitely need to happen. Tune wise, I've had a Smarty Jr paired with a Quadzilla box all set fairly low for so long the first Avatar movie came out afterward. Have had a FASS on it since 07 (the fairly loud one). Turbo wise have had HE 351 (good power, lost mpg), HE 351VE, and back to the stock HE 341. S&B intake. The first real step in support mods for the current plan is the clutch hydraulics...just because the original failed. Pretty much the money spent on this truck lately is maintenance, repair, and upgrades for hauling a truck camper is all.

@pOOlarisking Год назад

I have same truck. 450,000km on it. Smarty Jr on performance tune and no issues at all. Going to a smarty touch, diesel Dr where I live says with my mileage studs are necessary until you go monster turbo. Already have stage 2 south bend clutch rater for 525 hp. The only time head studs are needed is if you have a low mileage truck. Otherwise the head is pretty much welded in place after 300,000km. Did a bd iron horn 361 turbo kit. No problems with it at all. Mat it all day for two years. No blow no valve float nothing.

@markleon7076 Год назад

What about air intake turbo size injection size and cam+exhaust size what have you done in terms there things i wood like to know to complete the recipe for Power and Talk??

@JustDiesels Год назад

You can maintain stock turbo, exhaust, cam, and injectors for 500hp. The only items needed are tuning, head studs, a lift pump, and ideally push rods/valve springs too.

@dieseldemon8562 5 месяцев назад

One note to add, I’m not sure what you are seeing for consistent manifold pressures, but I was seeing consistent 27-32 psi under load. This isn’t much, but it was enough to cause my stock intercooler to leak. I’m not sure if mine was just a fluke- as I’ve seen them handle much more abuse and survive, but fwiw, I’d consider an upgraded intercooler and boots a worthwhile investment as well.

@user-hv7pv1em8t 3 месяца назад

Andrew.... Awesome videos. Agree with everything you did. But I'm curious. Why not an upgraded drop in turbo such as the Calibrated Power Stealth STR or even a Stealth 64 since you're at sea level. And when you're throwing on a mild upgraded turbo, why not an upgraded manifold such as the Steed Speed? And lastly, since you were already into the head/valve train, I'm curious why you didn't just go ahead and throw in some very mild BBI or Exergy injectors/tubes? I would really like to know your thoughts. Thanks again and keep the great videos coming!

2nd gen manifolds do flow air and sound better, but I have plans for some big shock towers and an over the engine brace. I'll need to get that on to see if everything would clear. I may be limited to a stock position turbo, which isn’t a huge deal since those still make more power than I’d need!

Glad I could help! If the truck is a toy, go first or 2nd gen. If you’re going to be daily driving and working it, go third gen. At least that’s my vote!

Are you local to the Westlake area? I recognized Kanan as soon as you got off the freeway lol I'd love to see this beast in person!

Hey Andrew you should make a video on a 6.4 powerstroke, I’ve had awful luck with mine but it would be cool to see what you think or the owner of the truck

Hello, Andrew - Good video and great advice. Many diesel enthusists believe slapping a tuner, intake and exahust is going to give them the power they want...not so. like you said, there are modifications that you really need to look into if reliabilty hasn't left your brain. As far as the lift pump; which do you prefer, external or in the tank such as the Fleece intank pump? Getting ready to pull the trigger on transmission, Lift pump, extended range fuel tank, By-pass coolant line (much needed), and a monitor. However, the lift pump outside the on the rail is just a bit concerning, being a target for rocks and morons who want to mess with it. Your thoughts....again, nice work. Cheers!

I really like my fass and it’s super tucked up, but I do see a good argument for an in tank! I just like having easy access to the filters.

@@JustDiesels Thanks. Having access to the filters is a pretty good benefit
