2008 6.4 power upgrades
Hey guys, I just got a 2008 F-350 Crew Cab Long Bed 4x4 6.4 as my work truck. I was wondering what everybody is using as far as upping the power. I know airaid has an intake for the truck, but I dont know if the dealer would like that or not. I have been looking around, and it seems edge, sct, superchips, hypertech, bulley dog, and a few others already have some electronic things out for this vehicle. I was wondering which one I could use and take off when I have to take it to the dealer and they wont find out. I heard some leave footprints and others dont. I have mainly been leaning toward the edge that you can put in the dash and the SCT. The SCT does have an extreme version thats pretty tempting 
Here is the site I have been looking at: http://www.xtremediesel.com/index.as...S&Category=585
I dont want all out ***** to the wall performance, just something to give it a pretty good boost in power that wont mess up the trans or the rest of the truck, or get me busted at the dealer
The truck is also on 35" bfg mud terrains so I need something that can re-calibrate the speedo. I know I need to post this up on the dieselplace or something as well. Thanks for the input fellas,
Sam

I would do a drop in air filter. and a catback. there isn't many hand held programers that dont leave someting on the computer for a dealer to find. but there is always that chance you take with one. You take the new job or still working the same one that you had the dodge?

swing by a ford dealer and talk to the main parts guy, one of the dealerships that i had service work done used to sell the programers and actually didn't care as long as you bought it from them. Since its a new 6.4 i would wait a little while before i did anything to it. i am on a psd site and from what i under stand they are a hit and a miss. some are great and some will start to have problems.

I will swing by a ford house when I go to town again. I was gonna wait a little bit, but I want something for sure down the road. Driving a stock vehicle kinda sucks. What do you have on your work ford? When did ya move to washington dc man?
