As of its release the engine offers best in class power and torque.
FORD 6.7 MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR PROBLEMS UPDATE
The 2020 PowerStroke update is another good one. A few of the updates are also focused on improving torque and performance. Some of them are intended to improve reliability over the initial 6.7L. However, as you can see, there were quite a few important updates for the 6.7L PowerStroke. This isn’t an exhaustive list of updates for the 2nd gen engine. Turbo updates to support additional power and torque.2nd Gen 6.7 PowerStrokeįord’s 2nd gen 6.7 diesel has some notable upgrades over the original engine.
