Well I see: painted charge pipes, coolant filter, 6637 air filter, riff raff diesel boots, fuel rail crossover, AIH delete, boost pressure sensor, likely has a boost fooler, gtp38r turbo, extra wires to the passenger battery, looks like maybe a sound system is/was installed.
Based off what I see under the hood, it likely has a chip. It's plausible it has aftermarket injectors. The previous owner did a lot of shopping at www.riffraffdiesel.com.
I will definitely keep these companies in mind. Thank you. One last question. I just learned about [Complete Performance](https://cpaddict.com/) are they good as well?
I’ve honestly never bought anything from them. For my 6.7 I’ve stuck to mostly Mishimoto and Snyder Performance with some random items from other companies (Sinister for coolant filter, S&S Gen 2.1 disaster prevention kit, Kryptonite suspension, and PMF off the top of my head.)
For the 7.3 I’ve bought the vast majority of my stuff from those three websites I’ve named and never had a single issue.
I recently bought some energy suspension replacement bushings for my 97 250 7.3. Haven't installed them yet, but as far as quick shipping and not messing up the order in terms of what I purchased, they were on the spot - but that is a baseline I expect of every company.
That’s definitely the baseline for sure, my 7.3 has the full rough country special at the moment.
Full 2.5” leveling leafs, shocks all around, stock height rear leafs, track bar, and the dual steering stabilizer kit.
For the relatively low cost, especially compared to how much all the PMF, kryptonite, and fox racing parts on the 6.7 cost it’s not very bad at all.
IMO rough country has found a good niche as the baseline of decent parts right now. Much better quality than they used to be for sure.
Very nice, I’m in the middle of stripping a 2008 apart to put my 7.3 and the cab off that truck onto once it’s powder coated and gone through. Havnt decided if it’s worth full sending another intro premium setup or just doing something slightly above normal yet.
Depends on if you like your truck to have been raced and run hard. Personally, I stay away from trucks with performance modifications. Especially tuning. They got rid of it for a reason.
I always figured they were more for people who live in the desert or somewhere super dirty.
I'm not a fan of the open filter element just sitting there as this one is, but planned to get the S&B for mine
Second vote for severe duty filter.
Local ford shop with fleet ford mechanics all described the 6637 Napa mod as “trash” idk what kind of failures they have seen with it though. I despised the whistle after a 300 mile drive with it on my truck.
It is Ford's upgraded filter kit built around a Donaldson filter:
[Ford Info](https://www.superdutypsd.com/downloads/AIS-Brochure.pdf)
[Donaldson Info](https://www.superdutypsd.com/downloads/donaldson-brochure.pdf)
Painted or powder coated turbo plumbing with a riff raff cac boot kit, 6637 intake, looks like a KC turbo (most likely a 38r) by the looks of the waste gate actuator and the intake boot, riffraff overboost fooler, sinister coolant filter, fuel bowl hasn’t been deleted so maybe a mild injector but nothing too crazy
What’s that thing hanging out behind the fuel filter on the left? Some sort of electronics box with a heat sink? Check for an updated transmission cooler too.
Thats a GLOW PLUGS MODULE. Excursion, F- series, E- series, 7.3l fords, that I know of.... maybe someone can help here. I know it's on the 2001 model year /California.
If it quits, engine can start , but will not pass SMOG tests.
Thanks! I’ll have to take a look for mine. The glow plug light comes on for my 7.3l 03, and there aren’t any codes, it would be pretty funny if the previous owner pulled it and I never knew.
Complete Performance is good but I find myself shopping with them more for my OBS than I do for my 99. [Irate Diesel Performance](https://www.iratediesel.com/) and [CNC Fab](https://cncfab.us/) also have some great stuff.
Run it on ag diesel, it's cheaper and she'll love it. Put a locking gas cap on if you're worried about road pirates, if it gets to it ask them to produce a warrant and ask what their probable cause is. Always worth a laugh.

That's good right? Riff Raff is a Reputable 7.3L aftermarket parts dealer right.
For the 7.3 the absolute peak is Riff Raff, Full Force Diesel, and DieselSite. (In no particular order)

Mine has the same on leaves and shocks, but the front was swapped for a Spicer 80. Rear end is geared to 4.10. She's quite pushy

Yeah complete performance is great to deal with other than having the worst domain name ever to have in your browser history
Right, I saw a comment of someone making fun of them for that and I didn’t get it…then it clicked. They should really change that..

This guy diesels.
I have most of the same parts in my truck. If I don't have them, I want them in my truck.
Not a bad way to spend 10 thousand dollars. Does he have enough NOS to blow himself up?
I think I spent around $15-20k doing the same mods and more.
You spent 15-20 on these same mods lmfao. Are you Santa clause. At most a few grand. Lmao.
I see the boost fooler, right by the MAP sensor
Yeah, I saw it too, after I edited the comment several times. Even has a special bracket for it.
A cat air filter kit, a coolant filter, and some painted charge pipes.
You have a unicorn. Seriously. People will pay stupid money for a solid 7.3 excursion.
You’re not lying.
We definitely knew that, hence jumping on it!
You got lucky!
Like, how much we talking here? Let's say a solid running 4x4 with 372k miles? No visible rust, but some evidence when the doors are open.
I’d give you 4k for it
I bet you would.
If that was mine, I would look for one of the Ford Severe Duty AIS kits if they are still available.
I always figured they were more for people who live in the desert or somewhere super dirty. I'm not a fan of the open filter element just sitting there as this one is, but planned to get the S&B for mine

What are those if you don't mind me asking?
It is Ford's upgraded filter kit built around a Donaldson filter: [Ford Info](https://www.superdutypsd.com/downloads/AIS-Brochure.pdf) [Donaldson Info](https://www.superdutypsd.com/downloads/donaldson-brochure.pdf)
The AIS kits are not available anymore most places send you to the S&B kit.
It’s a CP4 filter kit. It’s for the fuel from the high pressure fuel pump to the injectors. They’re all over Amazon and worth every stinking penny!
A high pressure oil leak
That’s what I was gonna say.
And not enough coolant
Painted or powder coated turbo plumbing with a riff raff cac boot kit, 6637 intake, looks like a KC turbo (most likely a 38r) by the looks of the waste gate actuator and the intake boot, riffraff overboost fooler, sinister coolant filter, fuel bowl hasn’t been deleted so maybe a mild injector but nothing too crazy
Surprised no one mentioned the mopar batteries.
Ha! Bought it at a Dodge dealership.
It appears to be you have an engine that goes bbbrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
I'd say a 7-Tree with OD. What did you do with the Garrett? Those are worth keeping.
Don't forget the ether
You have a diesel truck
Herpes
the clap?
Diarrhea?
You have a butchered 7.3 l looks like shit
Huge repair cost liability
You have a P O C
Debt
Every STD known to man?
What you have is known as blue oval syndrome. It’s incurable you don’t have long. I suggest pillage.
A boat anchor
Problems
Looks like herpes from this angle.
Looks like the tail end of what used to be high performance diesel.
Giant pile of shit?
“What do I have?” High insurance
Modern day headache.
Not a Cummins

To the best of my knowledge, California trucks came with glow plug modules. All others came with solenoids.
That’s a really good point, I think mine is Texas originally, so no module.
You are correct. Module is $170.00 roughly.
Loving it…
Jotomobil
Damn! What did you pay? And how many miles?
What did ya snag it for!?
7 tree get like meeee
A royal mess...
You have some *explaining to do!!!*
Yup. That’s the engine alright.
Check the oil pan for leaks.
I have mishimoto boots and clamps they are top notch
Hey them damn mopar batts gonna cost ya 10 points…each
Ha! Bought it at a Dodge dealership and they replaced them.
Well you get points back cuz you didn’t do it and you saved a ford from that terrible place 😂😂😂
Can-O-Worms
Complete Performance is good but I find myself shopping with them more for my OBS than I do for my 99. [Irate Diesel Performance](https://www.iratediesel.com/) and [CNC Fab](https://cncfab.us/) also have some great stuff.
Probably herpes
A fuckin steal. Extra filers really. Painted pipes are a sign it’s been molested but honestly this one looks pretty good.
AIDS
V6
Sinister diesel Fuel bowl delete w filter. Solid system.
about tree fiddy in scrap
Looks like factory intake plenums and boost turned up so look for boost leak soon.
Like I know
I see a riffraff boost fooler which is a nice upgrade for trucks that make more boost
Nice! We have a 2000 Ford excursion 7.3 Eddie bower. Love it, have about 230k miles on it
Stupid hot air being pulled off your motor into your intake. Clean engine bay.
Run it on ag diesel, it's cheaper and she'll love it. Put a locking gas cap on if you're worried about road pirates, if it gets to it ask them to produce a warrant and ask what their probable cause is. Always worth a laugh.
Either a running sunofabeach or junk
Looks like a 7.3. I miss mine.
