Are these settings across the board for all hydra tuners for the 7.3-liter? Just bought an 03 and the guy was telling me 2 is for high idle when starting it when cold (snow mode), 5 is his daily driver, and I forget what he said was tow mode. Can I use this chart for my truck? Also enjoying all your 7.3 videos my brotha

Every time I watch a video on your RU-vid channel I always get a lot of very useful information for my 2000 7.3 powerstroke f -450 😊😊😊😊😊😊

Yessuh brotha!

@EdMartin-by3hn Год назад

You should do a video on custom tunning your hydra chip. I think PHP has a how-to video on RU-vid.

@powerstrokecentral Год назад

I was just thinking about that brotha. I will probably do that for next sundays upload.

What other mods do you curently have done? I pull between 18 to 20 mixed driveing 99 350 dually 6 speed manual s&b intake and a mbrp 4in turbo back.

@powerstrokecentral Год назад

Just an intake and turbo back

@@powerstrokecentral Nice, I'm looking at the hydra from jelibuilt, will probally save a lottle money and not get the extra tunes. Look forward to a bit more power and performance

@MichealJACKSON-ly6cd Месяц назад

The 80 horse DD was over 18 mpg thats surprising but mine runs best on 80hp DailyDriver so i guess its not that strange.

@bigbassintx3803 Год назад

What was your average speed that you were testing with on the highway? My 7.3 is completely stock and can get 19-20 mpg on the highway if I go 70 mph all the way.

@feeltheburntk9893 3 месяца назад

My stock, extended cab, short bed, 7.3 powerstroke only gets 12mpg..

@jcbenson01 6 месяцев назад

Testing this way is not very conclusive. 100 miles is only about 5 gallons worth of fuel. The variance in filling up and tracking that small of an amount of fuel is not going to be consistent with slopes of different fueling pads, speed of pump (foaming), and how much you topped off. It also sounded like you were stomping on the pedal at times. I hope no one takes this and runs with it thinking it’s “absolute”. Mine gets the best when I baby it on the 140 extreme tune.

Can you change tunes while you’re moving?

@colearmstrong2450 Год назад

Yes it’s switch on the fly

@AnthonyVierra Год назад

Do a series searching for max MPG. Tune + mods + which injectors

@powerstrokecentral Год назад

That’s a damn good idea

@AnthonyVierra Год назад

@@powerstrokecentrali bet if you work with a tuner and an injector provider they could really provide serious input

@JLCmike4014 Год назад

I’m on the fence for getting the hydra-chip tuner for my truck. I like the idea of more power out of my truck but i LOVE the originality of my truck. I like keeping it dead nuts reliable.

@glorifiedelement Год назад

(Sorry this is so long lol) I never intended on installing a tuner of any kind on my 7.3 when I bought it but 1 thing lead to me ultimately deciding to do so. The truck had to work so hard to get up to speed efficiently and this also affected the fuel economy. The increased power from installing my hydra has saved my fuel economy and made it a more useable truck. And as far as reliability I haven’t noticed any issues since installing it almost a year ago. The only real issue I’d see coming from it is if you were to constantly whomp around in the 140HP tune just hammering the pedal to race or roll coal on people, your transmission wouldn’t destroy itself but the 20 year old torque converter probably wouldn’t be to happy with you if you did that

@JLCmike4014 Год назад

@@glorifiedelement, i hear you on that and yes i’ve thought about that. I wouldn’t be hammering on it all the time because i know that even with a tuner the 7.3L trucks are slow. My duramax truck is far faster even in just the 50hp tow mode. So racing with the 7.3L is never going to happen. As for the truck itself it’s as healthy as can be. I’m going to freshen up the front axle (have all the parts, just have to do it) and it needs an A/C compressor but that’s all. The truck is my baby and it’s cared for as such. I just think about cutting into that bracket for installing the chip cable and it makes me not want to because the truck is so well cared for. The original owner took excellent care of the truck, i’m just taking it one step further. And plus these trucks are going up in value and an unmolested and well cared for truck would command a premo price if it came to have to sell the truck (which i won’t do). I’m kind of in a catch 22, i want to but i don’t.

@glorifiedelement Год назад

@@JLCmike4014 Oh well that’s different. Yea If you have a Duramax too then leave that 7.3 stock. I only tuned mine because it was an old plow truck and I needed the power for pulling, but if you have a Duramax that can do that instead then its not really worth chipping your 7.3

@JLCmike4014 Год назад

@@glorifiedelement, the duramax truck will be the play toy. It’s parked right now because it was getting rusty but the plan is to soon begin rebuilding it.

@Bwanar1 2 месяца назад

You didn't accomplish anything but burn fuel. The only way you can test mileage is by making the same drive, same distance/direction (unless flat an no wind), in the same conditions, not rolling coal or sitting in traffic. Too many variables the way you did it. Also in traffic on highway helps... drafting I pick up 2-3mpg. I have larger injectors and bigger turbo also. Still get between 14.3-17.3 depending on the variables. Flat ground/sea level.

@riptornsideways День назад

It’s 140hp on the extreme tune, not 150. This test basically proves nothing the way you executed it. I never take mine off the extreme tune and I average anywhere from 19-22mpg depending on many variables. Mostly highway driving.
