Power Hungry Performance FICM Reprogramming, Ford (2003-10) 6.0L Power Stroke

SAFE, RELIABLE POWER THAT YOUR 6.0L POWER STROKE NEEDS 

Features: 

•Resolves many cold-start issues 

•Usually results in more MPG 

•Improves tip-in throttle response 

•Results in better overall drivability from idle up through 3500 rpm

•Proven performance gains up to 100 HP

•Eliminates annoying injector post buzz

•Alternate tuning available for large-nozzle injectors

•Works with most ECM tuning

With 4 separate power levels, there’s a FICM tune to fit your needs:

ECONOMY – Improved throttle response and economy without any significant power gains. Good for all applications, but generally used when the ECM has a high horsepower tune and additional fueling is not desired. 

ATLAS 40 – Improved throttle response and economy with a 40 HP gain. Useful for mild to heavy towing or when excessive exhaust gas temps (EGTs) are a concern. Good for trucks without head studs. 

ATLAS 80 – Improved throttle response and economy with an 80 HP gain. Best for daily driving or very light towing.

HERCULES – Maximum performance with a 100+ HP gain. Not recommended for towing as it can increase EGTs. It’s recommended you run an EGT probe to monitor temps. NOT RECOMMENDED FOR TRUCKS WITHOUT HEAD STUDS.

The dyno plots that show just what you can normally expect from reprogramming your FICM. The vehicle tested was a 2004 F-250 2WD with 283,000 miles, running a 100 HP tune on the ECM. Vehicle test conditions: Engine at full operating temperature, 3rd Gear, Converter Locked. To read the dyno charts, the Torque scale is on the left and the HP scale is on the right. This image helps to illustrate the differences between a standard FICM strategy and a modified FICM strategy on an otherwise stock vehicle.
