Ford F-250 Tune and Dyno pull (6.2L gas motor)

[@ck3561]

Those 6.2 are crazy tuff motors. They are proven engines. We have some at work that have 300k

[@fatharmonix]

I subscribed based on the videography. So kudos to whoever directed and shot this vid

[@vlperformance4390]

Hi Drew, thanks for the feedback man! We have plenty of more videos on the way.

[@drewolm]

I’ve got a 6.2 250 as well and this is interesting. I wonder if this customer still has the truck and if there are any maintenance or reliability issues due to the tune?

[@brian1989]

Definitely keep doing these videos. Great style and informative 👍

[@vlperformance4390]

Will do! Thanks for the feedback Brian.

[@adamlocustpb]

Any update on fuel mileage for this truck

[@sirmize1230]

Guess not

[@alb12345672]

@@sirmize1230 I think of my 6.2L F150 in "smiles" per gallon.

Nice video without 20 minutes of yak yakking. I have a 6.2 Fordoor 350 and a 5.7 Toyota 1/2 ton. The throttle response is quite a thing between the two. I’d be right over to your dyno except you are waaaay over dere in WI dang it…

[@AMXhotrod]

10% improvements are pretty good. Can you give ballpark on cost to tune? I have a 2021 6.2 Superduty.

Hi Scott, give us a call so we can chat tune options and get you a quote. 920.358.7570

[@leroygreen1877]

I got a 2015 and the i have the same issue. I like to drive light on the peddle and sometimes i have to get in it pretty hard to get moving.

[@andrewhatton1606]

The new 7.3 gas is the shit

[@thejuiceisloose8703]

There’s another tuner on here with the same truck making almost the same HP/TQ numbers but his truck has a CAI and headers. Either his tune sucks or the truck has an issue. Nice power gains on yours

[@cotyvanlannen4919]

Hmmm. Any idea what dyno he was using? We are on a mustang, which nets a bit lower power than say a dynojet. Let us know as I'm curious.

[@thejuiceisloose8703]

@@cotyvanlannen4919 not sure what kind of dyno he’s using. Someone in the comments of that video referenced this video and he stated that they are two different dynos and software. Could be the reason.

[@cotyvanlannen4919]

@@thejuiceisloose8703, yes that could very well be the case. End of the day, the dyno is a tool. Sticking with one dyno throughout the car/truck journey of mods is the only true way of knowing what the modifications are doing. Whether good or bad. lol

[@donquixote...]

What is the difference between having this type of tune done, and just using Sport Mode...?

[@thatWASdum328]

I'm sold guys, what's the high end rough quote for this exact service? Like roughly high end cost. I'm trying to get an idea before my truck arrives.

[@seaskoot1957]

You going to tune the new 7.3?

Were hoping to get our hands on all sorts of new stuff this winter :)

[@austintyler7991]

Consider buying 2019-18 3/4 Chevy/GMC. 6.0 motor. What kind hp/tq gains ? Ball park I hear the mpg sucks. Can u tune 20-22 mpg at 65 mph?? Hear the 10 sp auto is great transmission. Thanks

I have a Ford 2018 F-250 Gas truck. I was told by Ford that it will tow a Camper maxed at 12,000 Lbs. Is it possible to increase performance and tow weight (GVWR ) to an additional 2,000 Lbs so that it can pull up to 14,000 Lbs.?

[@vlperformance4390]

Hi David, give our shop a call and chat with our tuner to get a solid answer thanks!

[@mattb4084]

You could tow more with that truck but it's just not rated for more. The manufacture takes in to account the payload, frame and suspension. Towing is more than just pulling. It's also stopping and stability. I've seen people towing 25' trailers with a Toyota Tacoma. It will do it but probably not safely.

[@crispyfishstick]

@@glitter_fart Thank you, Glitter Fart.

[@adamhose5231]

@@glitter_fart not according to Ford and RAM Towing charts. You can have the same model truck with the same wheelbase but if the engines or gearing is different so will your Towing capacity. Also you mentioned bumper which again the part number on the bumpers are the exact same across the same model. So a Ram 2500 tradesman with either the gas or diesel will have the same bumper but with different towing capacities. And apparently you're forgetting the fact that a lot of trucks have fifth wheel mounts and the mounts don't change even when you go from a 3/4 ton to a 1-ton truck. So again it has more to do with what engine and gearing you select within a specific model, they don't make one F-250 frame beefier than another F250 frame, the only thing that changes is the length based on the wheelbase.

No

[@bigredc222]

If you put a smaller diameter wheel on, would it make more torque at the wheels? Good video Thanks

[@benlzicar7628]

Yes, he said he put larger Kingranch tires on so he lost some torque, the tune was to help with that.

[@johnragsdill688]

Yes

[@bigredc222]

@@johnragsdill688 Big tires and wheels also take more effort to stop.

[@alb12345672]

@@bigredc222 Harder to get up to speed too, but they are great if you plan on going fast. No different than rollerblading :lol:. When I skate with Big wheels I need lots of energy to get up to speed but being a larger circumference they cover more distance for the same revolution as a smaller one! So they are great to maintain a fast pace. Torque is Force X Distance. Imagine the tire as a breaker bar. Gearing could make larger wheels seems smaller though. But you still need the HP to turn them fast.

[@TheRamGuy]

Very cool video

[@vlperformance4390]

Thanks for watching!

[@superdutyzack]

Another dyno shop, Brenspeed did the same truck but had long tube headers and a KN CAI and made the same hp gains. How does your tune make the same hp numbers has someone else’s with long Tube headers and cai intake?

[@ashtonmcveigh9830]

Their power curve would be different

[@oakleyfreak45]

I really wonder if that brenspeed truck has long tubes. Spend 1500 on headers but no catback exhaust?

[@pabssor5439]

It doesnt have headers he says if it did he could probably make more hp

[@superdutyzack]

@@ashtonmcveigh9830 headers would have better low end. The video I referenced about Brenspeed, the guy runs a 87 tune so maybe thats why he’s not making bigger gains. Long tube headers should be good for an extra 35+ hp easily.

@@oakleyfreak45 The guy said it does, but too also run an 87 tune seem like a poor choice.
