Youre right to a point. On the 7.3, Navistar recommnds 75 to 80 psi on the injectors, Ford runs 65. To make up the difference in power loss, Ford used prgramming, which the 7.3 doesnt like.Most of the aftermarket chips address this, and change timing and other parameters to make up the difference. The result is the ability to run in higher HP setting.

One of my neighbors just traded off his early 04 250 6.0 because of the problems he kept having, but his work truck, an 03 International with 6.0 has yet to visit the shop for a repair.
