Ive done some light reading into what some guys are doing to gain efficiency and keep the engine happy but would appreciate some insight from you guys.
The want list for this 18 2.8L goes like this:
PCV re-route/catch can
Tuning (up in the air, open to opinions)
Flo-Pro exhaust
3" down pipe (not sure who to use yet)
EGR delete
DEF delete (if it exists)
S&B intake
Titan tank
Mayyyybe a front level + slightly bigger tires and a airbag kit for the rear
First question is, what is the best PCV re-route/catch can for these engines? Ive read that the "mighty mouse" is good however have also read that it isn't very effective at catching oil vapors? All i did for the PCV on my LMM was routed them down to the frame rails to the atmosphere. From what i've gathered the PCV seems to be the cause of premature turbo failures, how true and why?
Second question is, has anyone heard of anyone putting on a FASS fuel system or is there no need? I found a noticeable gain in MPG when installing one on my LMM....which is why I ask.
She is going to be putting alot of miles on this little truck so naturally I want to see whats out there to make it last.
Oil is another topic as I like T6 rotella + archoil but I have a ways to go before worrying about that. Interested to hear what you guys think about it though.
Thanks for the opinions
