Make sure you tap that SUBSCRIBE button!! all support is much appreciated!!

Good video it was one of my go to videos for installing all these parts. Thanks for your help

[@PowerstrokeRick]

Glad it helped

[@colt4528]

Nice truck and clean work you did! I have a 2019 6.7 and love it I use all SPE products good quality and long wait time but worth it.

[@PowerstrokeRick]

Thanks brotha much appreciated! And yeah I’m the same way I try and get everything SPE I don’t mind the wait!

[@user-maxim_79]

Tried to do business with SPE. They were terrible. Went with Pusher and glad I did.

[@PowerstrokeRick]

Sorry to hear that I have not had any issues they are awesome!!

[@L15a5haw]

SPE has never been a problem we own 2 6.7 they always fill orders fast Pusher intakes seems cheap in comparison to SPE

[@awisemanoncesaid7356]

If they made good products you shouldnt have too make that many orders

[@robr9905]

Thanks for the your input. I am doing the same project and leaning towards Pusher.

nothing to crazy but a slight gain with all that good air flow

[@DavidBowen]

I'd really like to know if this will help in any way with fuel mileage?

[@PowerstrokeRick]

It might help a little bit, I saw mine go up a little but nothing crazy, everything is just breathing really good now, getting good boost

[@colt4528]

I did SPE piping kit I didn’t notice a increase in fuel mileage around town, I did notice better throttle response. BUT I noticed a big difference in towing and getting 1.5 mpg better towing heavy at highway speeds under a load.

[@oddlyrightoddlyright2475]

Now that it’s been a while any notable gains.?lower Egts? Mpg? Better response in throttle and boost off the line

[@PowerstrokeRick]

For some reason in my 2017 I get really good fuel Mileage but not in the 2015 blue truck. Maybe because of the lift and wheels. But I have noticed it sounds a bit louder, lower EGTs and a bit better response

Spe said 3-5 weeks in stock Took them over 8 weeks to get it to me Terrible customer service

[@matthewgraham7419]

I will second that motion. Buyer beware, they are some of the most disrespectful business owners I have ever had to deal with. Amy and Chance are down right nasty in email communication. No accountability or respect what so ever. Parts are awesome, people are awful. They need some new front office customer service, Dan is the dude and dreams up the best parts in the business. Painful painful purchasing experience!!!

[@stevenhall1392]

Ordered mine in March. Just came in end of July. Chance is a smart ass. Great parts but horrible sales people

[@justinfannon8159]

i just ordered the ccv reroute, it came in like 8 days, 0 issues with customer service.

[@davidbryan5203]

Unfortunately this has been my experience as well. I've ordered and received items from SPE twice before and just placed a third order. I have never received an order from them even remotely close to the estimated ship date, and all the posted shipping/short staff notices have been woefully optimistic to say the least. My first order arrived nearly a full month after the longest supplied shipping estimate (this took into account the COVID delays and material shortage notices posted on the website). The second order was nearly three weeks later than expected. Both times the customer service and support have been dreadful. Rude, short, uninterested, and assuming would be the adjectives I'd use to describe the experience. All this being said, as I previously stated, I just placed a third order. This is because I firmly believe SPE offers some of if not the best aftermarket products for these trucks. The designs just make sense, and the quality is second to none. This makes the subpar ordering experience worth it to me. If Dan at SPE could get the customer service issues rectified and the shipping issues straightened out, I personally believe SPE would be a force to be reckoned with in the Aftermarket Industry. Until then it will most likely be relegated to people like myself who want nothing but the best, and are willing to put up with the abuse to get it.

[@bigtimearcher1]

I have had nothing but bad luck with SPE. Chance is a straight up dick. Their mentality is once the sale is done, they got their money and it’s not their problem anymore. My biggest problem was their disaster prevention kit. Once I installed it, whenever I would make a wot pull, I would get “reduced engine power “ notifications on my dash. The fuel pressure became inadequate for the fuel demand. I ended up calling, talked (unfortunately)to chance about it and was told “nobody’s ever had that problem” upon looking online, there is a huge number of guys that have experienced the same thing. I pulled the kit off and returned that back to stock and my problem immediately went away. I called again for a return/refund and was told I was out of their return period….. Even though I waited 6 months to get the part, 30 days from purchase is all they give….. essentially, I had no option to return from the get go! So I will definitely tell anyone looking at SPE buyer beware! I will continue to deal with no limit fabrication where they carry good parts and they stand behind them.
