How does cylinder pressure impact performance and longevity?
Posted by ID Speed Shop on 2023 Jan 30th
Cylinder Pressure is the pressure in the engine cylinder during the engine operation. In our case, we have 4 strokes that are necessary to produce power. Intake, Compression, Combustion(Expansion), and Exhaust. Combustion stroke is what we normally think of, as it pushes the piston down to make the power. However, all operations are needed and used to measure eng

relays. These relays power four blunt cut wires that can be found
beneath the steering column and behind the passenger compartment fuse
panel also called the Central Junction Box (CJB).

What is the EBP sensor and how does the Inferred EBP strategy effect my truck?
Posted by ID Speed Shop on 2023 Jan 11th
The Ford Powerstroke diesel engine has used an inferred exhaust back pressure (EBP) sensor strategy starting in the 2004 model year, with the 6.0L engine. The inferred EBP sensor strategy uses engine speed and boost pressure to calculate the EBP, rather than measuring it directly with a sensor. This method is less precise than a direct measure method, but it still helps to m
