Upgrade Info!
I am looking forward to sending the EVO I currently have on my truck to you for an upgrade,
 I have a few questions. My warranty on my truck is over in about 6 months and I am going to be making some mods. My list is as follows,Muffler Delete  EGR Delete 1. I am wondering if I should wait till the mods are done or will the tunes cover these mods w/o throwing and CEL's. 2. The "Fuel Sipper" tune you offer, is this reflashing the FICM, to the tune I am reading about on the forum. Or does it come part of any other tunes you offer, the guy I bought the truck from said Ford reflashed him and his MPG's went down alot that is why he got rid of the truck. 3. I'm curios on the Gryphon, is it 4 tunes and the stock, or 3 tunes and the stock? My 2005 F350 6.0 is used for daily transportation for work, pulling a camper, and I like to mat it once in a while just to put the gassers in their place.  Thanks for your time "Livin The Dream" Jerry

Hi Jerry -
I can't answer ALL your questions, since I drive one of those "gassers" you like to put in their place, but I DO know that Ford's reflash of the 6.0L engine hurt it both in power and in economy. They did it to protect themselves from warranty claims. Bill's tunes can get back the performance and economy and he tends to be conservative, so it won't damage your truck. - Jack

The FICM is a separate flash from the PCM that the tuner modifies.. you will need to remove the FICM and send it to Bill for reflashing. has the dealer reflashed you FICM...

I also have an 05 CC DRW 4X4 6.0L and will be installing a Magnaflow 4" turbo back without cat and have my EVO on order. The FICM was just replaced last month under warranty. So I have the same questions and would it be a good idea to send in the FICM for reflashing?

Unfortunately, it will be undrivable until the FICM is returned.

Can the dealer detect if the FICM has been reflashed from the last time they did it (just in case I have to take it back in for other work)
What would be the best way to ship it to you from Vancouver B.C. I have a friend in the Seattle area I could ship it to/from if that makes it easier/cheaper.

on the evo:
level 1 = trans tuning only level 2 = milage level 3 = tow level 4 = extreme egr delete will set a cel, it may not come on in cold weather though, but will in summer temps. Gryphon tunes depend on how you want them and what number you want to match which tune.
