Speaking of DP tuners haha. My girl wants to buy something for me for my truck and was asking me all about the dp tuner that I wanted. You can see my mods in my sig. What do you think about this idea:
F5 Chip:
EX multichanger
Pos 0: No Start
Pos 1: Stock
Pos 2: 80hp Econ
Pos 3: 8hp Tow
Pos 4: 120 Race
What do you guys think? Im runnin superchips right now because i didnt want to drive a stock tune until I could afford to get the DP. From what I hear, even the 80E tune will blow a superchips performance tune out of the water. Also, I was wondering if I should get a 60 tow or an 80 tow. I dont to a lot of towing, but i figured might as well get the 80 for added torque. Also, I know the F6 is more conveniant when it comes to getting upgraded tunes via email. But I know that I wont be getting my stage 2 sticks and new turbo for a while and an extra $200 isnt really in the cards right now.

Does it go into position 0? If so, you need to send it to Jody because something wasn't right in the tune.

I have an F6 and I can write my program to whatever position I want. Point is, I did write to the wrong position so I can understand how it is possible when writing for a bunch of chips you can write to the wrong position or load up the wrong tune. Give Jody a call on Monday and they might be able to go over what they did and see if there is a problem somewhere.

Will do. Thanks man. I might as well get the 140 aggressive when I send it back. You have that tune? I heard its pretty much a smoke show tune but then I have heard that the extra/excessive fuel does increase performance but definitely not mileage ha. my 120 race is awesome. I dont run it much unless im gettin on the freeway or passin a semi quickly. It does seem to burn up all the fuel I dump into it. Not much coal rollin which is a good sign when you're trying to burn just the right amount. Have you ever been in 80E and punched it and had a hard shift before? I was gettin on the freeway and punched it and it changed gears pretty hard. Wasn't sure if it was normal or not.

The Ecnon tunes shift harder than the Tow for good reason. You don't want it to shift hard when you are hauling stuff. it is hard on the towed items.

I picked up a couple ferrite clips from a local aircraft surplus house. Completely fixed the problem. Not even a hiccup now. Given how cheap the ferrite clips are, it's probably not a bad idea for DPTuner chip owners to put them on the cable whether you're running HID lights or not.
Bergerson, thanks again for taking time to share this.

Hey, does anybody have extra ferrite bead clips any more? my HID kit will be here tomorrow and I dont know if I want to chance the install without them...
I have no problem ordering them online but figured I'd ask you guys first. Not to mention usually you all are faster at shipping than the companies I have ordered from haha.
If the kit comes before I get ferrite beads to install, should I put it in anyways? On the passenger side to be safe?
Has anybody had any actual damage to their pcm or f5 chip from running these without the beads?
Thanks
