I would say a 200+ hp chip on top of the stock hp # is going to net more then 400hp. Never heard of that brand either.
I agree with Cookie on the 400# but I have seen several PMR engines vent themselves with just a chip and propane.

The cost is a little shy of 600 bones. I'll let you know about the installation difficulty.

No doubt you have. You'll find a lot of people with windows in their block on propane. The problem is it's just as addictive as any other drug. The more you have, the more you want.....BOOM, bye bye PSD, hellooooo credit card. That is not limited to trucks with PMR's, 'pane is one of the few things that can kill the forged ones. All it takes is a chip with too much timing, a shot of pane and a heavy dose of right foot.

Cookie, What about this water/methanol injection system http://www.snowperformance.net/prodd...p?prod=auto140
Is it the same thing?

Cookie I agree %110. BTW a mutual friend said you attended a dyno run about a year ago in Port Byron IL. Did you? If so what truck did you have I have a lot of pics from that event. Always nice to put a truck/face with a name.

That 205 hp gain from the max-e tork chip is only attainable with other mods. The website says you need a fuel system to supply each head, a turbo upgrade, and high output injectors are recommended. Horsepower costs $$$$.

Ggg6,

Nope, I wasn't there. I was at the MOB dyno day in Effingham a little over a month ago.

Same as what I have? (it arrived today

) No. My system has a better pump, larger reservoir, and braided steel feed lines. I hate to quote a sales pitch, but that system really does look like a gasser application that has been adapted for diesel use. You want a system designed from the ground up for a PSD? Look here
