Hmm kinda upsetting that I paid for an H&S but there's a possibility that it's not actually H&S.

Still gets me down the road though so I can't be too upset.

Still the same tuning/programming... You will get just as much support from 3rd party vendors should you run into an issue as you would with a minimax straight from H&S that was purchased back in the day...

As long as you purchased it from a reputable vendor you have nothing to worry about.

Pulled a long night just came in from the shop. But I believe I'm done. I'll give it a good look over in the morning. Go get the boy's truck and swing the cab back on.

Well, SHE LIVES! Got it wrapped up Saturday past. Had a couple of coolant leaks to take care of. One on the Y pipe that feeds the heater and de-gas bottle. You can replace it without pulling the EGR coolers but it ain't easy. H&S loaded right up no sweat. The monitoring aspect of it is truly impressive. But I will have questions that I will ask in a separate thread. Spent Part of Sunday and yesterday cutting 8" out of the headache rack on the bed. that's all welded out. Now to wash the smoke and some flaking paint off the bed the paint it swing it back on and put this truck back to work after 6 long months of inactivity. Picks to follow with a wrap-up of what all went wrong with this thing.
