I've already got a more aggressive tune ready. More timing and a bit more fuel at wot. Just give us a call and ask Jolene to swap it out, mention what I said here about it. I'm not going to be very available for the phone this week --- 3 doctor's appointments and one with a new insurance agent so I'm playing catchup.

For Ken Payne: I have a Diablo chip, and from the seat of my pants, it has done nothing for my truck. '99 SD F-250, v-10, 5 spd, K&N, Granitelli mass air sensor, BBK 62mm throttle body, Borla headers, Flowmaster muffler. It seems as if I'm running on the lean side. It is the stock chip. Should I have ordered something different, or is there somthing I'm missing? Seems like others have experience some sort of gains from the product. Any info you have will be appreciated.

I would think you needed a custom chip with the MAS and throttle body mods.

The problem is you're running a stock chip.

The MAF, headers and tb cause a overly lean condition. The chip should have been custom programmed for it. There's a fee for custom programming. It requires that you fill out a custom sheet with your specs, fax it to us and then ship the chip. By the time the chip gets to us we usually have the code ready.

Ken:

I mailed the chip today and it should be arriving on Tuesday. Just letting you know ahead of time.

p.s.- I included the RMA number on the box and on the sheet inside.

p.p.s.- I hope the Doctors appointments went well!
