DpTuner
I have a 2002 ex with 7.3 and I have the dp tuner infinity installed. I love the monitoring aspect. I hate the tuning part. It takes about five minutes to change tunes. I used to have a ts chip on my old truck and loved it. I do love the look of the infinity. I was wanting to install a ts chip straight to the pcm and was wondering if with the infinity plugged in if it would still work. I don't want to do the cei hub on the fly because I feel like that takes a little extra as well. On a side note the only other thing I don't like about the infinity is that switching back to stock has not worked for me because it causes a no start so I end up having to re load the 80hp tune. No big deal cause I get better mileage out of the 80 anyway. Also it sucks for the price that it doesn't monitor abs. Only gripes I have. It is truly a great monitor. Literally everything you could monitor while driving is there. I am posting because I could not find a definite answer anywhere. I have wanted to call dp tuner but I work crazy hours and never get the time. Thanks in advance. Great community always find the answers I wonder about.

The Infinity plugs into the OBDII port, and the TS chip connects directly to the PCM. There is no conflict between the two technologies. Many of us have Hydra chips plugged into the PCM and use a tablet to monitor our engines through an OBDII Bluetooth adapter. I've personally used the DP F6, a TS, and a Hydra all while monitoring my gauges through the OBDII port with a plethora of devices and apps.

Well I think I got the stock figured out. I just don't like how it takes time to load versus switch on the fly. I changed it to stock today and it finally fired when I did which I was happy about. So I grabbed the ts chip and did the install. Then I went to fire and it just cranks. I re installed 4 or 5 times just to make sure. Undid the batteries, undid the dp infinity from the obd. Recleaned the contacts over and over. My question comes down to, is the table chip compatible with the infinity? Does the infinity have some sort of lock out from other tuners? I only want to use it now as a monitoring device. I want to use the ts as tunes. I bought the table from thoroughbred and specified that I have a 2002 ex.

This was not the dp tuner, this was weak injectors. I did a whole bunch of stuff and problem solved with tuner.

I’m a little slow, this probably makes perfect since to other people but not me.

My injectors were all mismatched basically and I think original to the truck. Some had new solenoids some did not. They were not flowing as well as they should have so they were falling flat on there face at full throttle. I picked up a new set of injectors that seem to have brought it back to life along with a new hpop, ipr, icp, CPS, glow plugs. I did all new of that stuff from riffraff to give the truck the pep back in it's step.
