Stock Fg 6T Ute First Tune Mods

[duncey1]

Hi everyone,

I am new to the ford scene and am wondeing what possibly is needed for my first tune. I have spoken to a few performance places in regards to tunes. I have a 4'' dump with a 3.5' back xforce stainless system I have just finshed and was recommended to get a tune. I also have an SS grolwer CAI kit.

Obviously the xcal 3 is a definate and a tune but some places have suggested an intercooler piping upgrade from the plastic, 60lb injectors and some even going as far as saying I need a new fuel pump and surge tank aswell. Is all this really needed for the fg's or are they pretty good to keep standard safely so ill be free of problems and what sort of RWKW would I be looking at.

If anyone could let me know exactly what I would need just to hear it from somebody who has done it to there car would be great. Im not sure weather or just these places are just trying to sell me something that's not 100% neccesary based on the mods I currently have.

Thanks

cooler pipes for sure. they are known to split.

will do ok without a fuel pump and surge tank. I would get a better cooler instead.

and I wouldnt be driving around with a dump pipe and cat with no tune! will over boost

just had mine done on friday with 355rwkw with cooler, pipes, battery relo, 4inch intake, 60lb injectors and a tune.

you should see 300 I would say with the mods u have mentioned

Cooler pipes, 60s, and a intank fuel pump. There's your stock turbo maxed out on 98.

Go 1000s instead of 60s, and a surge and 044 instead of a intank if you plan on running e85. It'll be an extra $1k all up but will get you 350-360on e85 compared to 320-330 on 98.
