I gotta 96 f250 powerstroke that I use as a weekly hauler and daily driver running on 35s and this chip sounds awesome.

 

If you've got 200 bucks burning a hole in your pocket, it's certainly an easy way to go.

 

Have u even looked into the chip? Running different sized tires on a computer controlled tranny throws everything off, so I'm seeing if anyone has used this chipped and liked it

 

I know what it does. There are a myriad of ways to achieve calibration, all with the same results...it's cut and dry, that system is perfectly fine.

 

You can reprogram the PSOM to account for the different tire size. I am not a fan of chips etc.

 

Piggyback tuners have a place on more modern trucks (I know it's a debated topic). The junk that this forum covers does just fine with the stock engine management systems. They're nowhere near as numerous or interwoven as later systems and likewise are very easy to work on and modify/calibrate.


K.I.S.S.

 

Not sure exactly what you're eluding to and how it pertains to what I've said in either of my posts above. Piggyback is the only way to modify some of the older systems, not sure why you'd piggyback anything new that has been cracked by efi live and the sort, BUT this has absolutely nothing to do with anything I've said. Btw, this is not a tuner.

I'll k.i.s.f.y.s. with a recap: There are a myriad of ways to recalibrate, if he's got 200 bucks burning a hole in his pocket then it works.

One thing that'd make it worth the money would be frequent tire changes for whatever reason.

 

Didn't realize it was for speedometer ONLY.

$80 is nice lol but the will it also help my shift timing ? I'm wanting the ecu to run and shift like I had stock tires not just my speedo needle beging accurate

 

You do know you can re-calibrate OBS Ford speedometers yourself, and for free, right?
