After TS hot tune truck dies

So I've had the TS chip for a while and just have it set at one level above stock but two days ago I turned it on high and did one long pass at full throttle now it will randomly die. Any ideas? Kinda weird

Does it start right back up after it dies? Sounds like a Crankshaft Position Sensor (CPS) going in and out.

Ford or International are the only you should use, parts store ones can be bad right out of the box. Best thing to do would be to buy 2 so you have a spare in case it ever happens out on the road.

And by what you describe by it starting right back up after it quits, CPS is the most likley suspect.
