Dp tuner
I have my mind set on getting a f6 smart chip. I'm wondering what tunes would be most useful/safe. Any recommendations are appreciate Here's my setup.
96' 7.3 4x4 manny trans/ gear vendor
4:10's
285/75/16
3" strait pipe
SB intake filter
Banks intercooler
Hpx line
Boost,oil,EGT gauged
Motor is stock otherwise-
I don't pull heavy loads but I do put a heavy camper on and pull a trailer under 5k from time to time. Last trip to the CAT scales put be at 15'300 lbs all together fuel up, wife and kids included. On most days I'm driving around town..
Considerations and future upgrades,
bumper w/winch
Onboard air
Scan tool( monitor codes, hpop pressure, coolant temp?)

If you are interested in a scan tool, we have the perfect product for you. Our Infinity will not only monitor data, but it is also a programmer that will hold an unlimited amount of tunes. Beyond holding tunes and monitoring data, it will also run KOEO/KOER tests, buzz tests, glow plug tests, cylinder contribution tests, datalog, play media, and much much more. You can check it out HERE.
Feel free to shoot me a PM or e-mail if you would like to talk about it more. I will be happy to help you out.

Just to give everyone an update, I ended up with a smart chip from DP Tuner. Install was a breeze on my 96' and I'm very happy with it. Previously I had another chip which was ok but was not suited for my truck specifically. I know some of you love the smoke some of these other chips put out and I can appreciate a good smoke show but this chip is tuned just right and I have very little to no smoke under load. I don't have to worry about highway patrol out here in the republic of California which is a good thing these days. Truck runs fantastic and the power is on tap...great product, thanks DP!

You can pick up an Infinity just for monitoring/diagnostics. A lot of people do that because they already have a chip. The product you are speaking of which will enable the Infinity to switch tunes on your chip will be available shortly. Jody has completed testing and now it is in the hands of the people writing the firmware for it. As soon as we receive them, they will be available on our website.

I have the Infinity and F6 and love them. The switcher justin is talking about also has 8 inputs for other sensors so you can run guages and datalog them on the infinity. I'm waiting for this to come out as I have no guages, other that what comes thru the OBD II and the pyro set up on the Infinity.

It should be available very shortly. We are just waiting for the firmware to be completed now and for the units to arrive to us.
