Question

Is it true that performance chips for diesel pickups that increase fuel economy and power decrease the life of the motor?

People who use too high of horsepower settings for heavy towing instead of using tow programs decrease the life of their engine when they do not monitor exhaust temps. If you use the properly they will not decrease engine life.
