RE: 06 6.0 don

If I lived closer you could use my 06 diesel. Too bad I am in the UP of Michigan. My truck is flat too with the tunes after the FICM replacement
RE: 06 6.0 don
I will bring down my 05 X if you need me to. I will have to take some leave and head down to FL to visit family while you do some tuning. Let me know.
RE: 06 6.0 don
i appreicate all the suggestions and willingness to loan trucks, but i would need a truck like now asap, ill find 1 hopefully soon. For now im gunna release a test crom after some testing that addresses the weak tunes for the older cal ids etc, vxcf9 still needs a little help. This always happens, as soon as i need a truck i can never find one haha.

RE: 06 6.0 don
This SUCKS. I believe i was the first or one of the first that posted this subject about not having the "good power" i'm suppose to have. It was posted on January 8th of this year and still i have nothing to use. That's roughly 137 days... now if i took that long to do a job i'd have some pissed off bosses and customers. I think i have been very patient but this is ridiculious. It only bothers me when i pull my dual tandem gooseneck and that's only about 50-60% of the time. So i guess what i'm trying to say is, come on Diablo guys it's coming up on 6 months and we still have nothing. What's wrong?

Re: RE: 06 6.0 don
The bulk of the missing power seems to be in the FICM flash, and that is not something the Predator has the memory to support.SILVERFORD2828 wrote:This SUCKS.

We back flashed the FICM in my buddies 06 truck last week and found most of the missing power, using the same exact PCM tunes that are currently released.

RE: Re: RE: 06 6.0 don
I am not fully convinced this has anything to do with ford I have not had my truck into any dealer and I am on an old calid. All I did was update to 9r10 and everything went to crap then you guys released 9r11 and still nothing. So I am only lead to believe it is something with the chip updates, like I said that is all I did and lost all power and mileage. Now Don has built me a custom 100hp in Februaury and the power is almost how it was but the mileage never came back. So what I am wondering is why I can't revert back to r84 because that is what I had in the chip before and it was awesome 19-21mpg and more power than I knew what to do with. I have been putting up with this since last September. So how without having this flash from ford am I still having the same problems everyone else is having.

Are you going to give me an upgrade as I have not been able to use the tool?
We were told many times that you guys were working on this and was going to fix it CAN YOU JUST ANSWER THE QUESTION YES OR NO??????????

So tell us how to back flash our 6.0s so we can get our power back. This is crazy! Many people have offered their trucks to you but still no update. I LOVED the Predator before, but now I am looking at the Banks Six Gun. Anyone ever have any experience with it? It doesn't re-flash the trucks computer, it runs its own program and ignores the Ford computer from what I understand.

We offer the Extreme Power Puck that will do the same thing, and likely costs lessjerryslay wrote:swamplandkarl wrote:So are you saying that after waiting on a fix for this since December when I purchased this tool its not going to happen?mikel wrote:The bulk of the missing power seems to be in the FICM flash, and that is not something the Predator has the memory to support.
