so ive got through 3 or 4 HPOPs in my trucks 97 thousand miles and now that im about to come out of warranty and im gunna have to start paying really money for these things im looking hard to the aftermarket for solutions...

my question is simple, is anyone using this set up (adrenaline HPOP)
as a side note its only made for the 03-04 6.0 and apparently they are making ones for the later models but i figure they would be about the same

? asked with no answer. Can anyone help out on this issue?

 

You are NOT going to gain that power from that. I see no need for it personally. The canadian rednecks are pushing over 1000rwhp out of their 03 6.0 with a stock 05 HPOP. I believe 05 was notoriously the worst as well.

I believe the pumps are all based off of an 03 design, but I believe you can get them for any year. From the other posts I've seen about it, didn't seem really worth it.

I am curious as to why you have gone through 4 stockers in under 100k... I'd say something else is wrong.

 

I have to agree with the Mdub707 statement "I am curious as to why you have gone through 4 stockers in under 100k... I'd say something else is wrong."

Have you ever seen oil in the degas bottle after the HPOP failure?
Have they ever replaced the OE engine oil cooler?
Have you ever looked at the parts that had to be replaced after each HPOP replacement? I would be curious to know if the nylon/plastic screen under the HPOP had failed.

The reason I say this is: If you run a 6.0 hard, the engine can demand up to 18.5 gallons of oil per minute and the stock filter is only good for less than half of that amount. When you exceed the flow capacity of the oil filter it will go into bypass mode and the crap that should of been filtered out will now circulate through the engine until it gets to the HPOP screen which could cause it to tear and cause the HPOP to wear out. The unfiltered oil will also plug up you engine oil cooler which will break down your oil faster and lead to HPOP failure. "The Domino Effect"

 

Here's the specs for the OEM oil filter...

Maximum Flow Rate 20 GPM (75.7 LPM)
Maximum Working Pressure 60 PSI (
Micron Rating 20 Micron
Height 6.5 in. (
Diameter 3.3 in. (
Center Threads N/A
Solids Capacity N/A
Weight (dry) 3.4 oz (
H 2 O Removal Efficiency 95%
Operating Temperature -50o to +225oF (-45o to +107oC)

 

i run with a heavy foot when havin to do lane changes and things like that but other than that the truck isnt ridden hard except when someone wants to race.

oil cooler has never been replaced

as for the parts no ive never seen them. ive asked to but the dealer says that they have alrdy been trashed by the time i get there

 

I am running that hpop on my 03 6.0 My truck runs alot better on cold starts. Iam a lead foot too Iam running 38"s with ten inches of lift and I cruise on the highway at 75 all day long and if I want to pass someone i just punch it and were gone. I have even smoke some older cummins since i put it in. Bob Riley who runs dieselsite called me immediatly after i ordered the pump online and gave me his cell number in case I had any questions!! He even called me about a month later to see if everything went good!! He really stands behind his products I really recomend these pumps!

 

Bob sounds like a nice guy and I too have heard good things about his customer service. I just don't see the need for the pump. If it made your truck run better then you probably had problems before that.

Like I said, check out the handful of 6.0s making OVER 1000rwhp and see what they have on there... stock HPOP's.

With that said, it wont hurt to run this, if you got money to burn go for it I guess.
