We'll see if I get a response. LOL

For anyone that cares, here's his response to my message I left him.



"I sold 250 diesels this year so far, and I'll tell you dude the comments on the diesel forums have been the biggest blessings ever, the good solid buyers read them and realize that people are all a** holes and some just cant be pleased and come over and buy, the s***wipes of the world read and believe and stay away which I cant be more happy with, I read a review on yelp the other day of a person complaining the coffee was too hot at Starbucks another half empty mindset, was that u?"



There ya go guys...be warned. This s***stick is a new breed of thief. I think I'll start a new thread about this POS. Mike, do you care?

Well I went on my hunting trip and pulled about 9 k up into the mountains around 8000' ASL. Up some very steep roads. I had to drop into 4 low. On the regular paved roads it pulled at 70mph all day. I was pleased with it. I noticed when floored and shifting into 3 it really slam shifts. So much I feel the rear springs flax and spring back. That cant be good. It does not do it empty, Well it shifts hard . I don't know if it's the DP chip or not. ideas?

Could be the chip. Do you have any trans mods? cOOn mod, upgraded VB, Banks trans controller, etc?

Not that I know of. The shift is fairly slow without the chip on.

Well after the trip I have decided I don't need the extra power of a new turbo or sticks. I will get E fuel and maybe a custom chip. If it's worth getting a custom chip for a stock truck for the most part. Going up the hills my boost was around 10 to 15 max and I would see 1200F the trans never went over 150F Maybe when or if I need to rebuild sticks one day I will then change them for larger. For now I need to get new body parts and save up for a new paint job and Bed.

I chip on a stock truck will give you about 50hp, I think its worth it, some don't.

I have a TS chip. Is that the same as a custom chip for my truck as is?
I thought I would get more boost when towing.

TS chip is good, what tunes do you have on it? Custom tunes designed for your truck or canned tunes which are a guess by tuners to what you might need.
