Another Stupit 10k mod question

I'm sorry to ask this.... i searched all the topic's but couldn't find the answer... i was wondering if this mod works on any year psd... (i have a 97 and it is the no intercooled year), also i have yet to throw on a set of gauges... will my egt's be ok for normal/highway use? thanks in advance!

Actually, the 10K mod was designed for the 94-97's. Works great. EGT's won't change all that much with just a 10K.

Hey hondoshot.... to run it on a switch... do you just put a toggle between one side of the resistor and the wires connecting to the clip, thus breaking the circuit? or is it more complicated than that? also can i just hit the switch or do i need to shut the truck off, and then flip the switch?? i'd rather not fry anything electrical if i can help it... thanks!!

Just put the resistor inline to the switch. Flip it on and off at your leisure.

I am new. In 25 words or less can someone tell me the basics of the "10K mod"?
Thanks!

You can turn it on and off whenever you like, but the crux of the 10K mod is to get the truck off the line faster, so it's better to have it on before the hard acceleration begins.

OK guys, I tried this mod today on my 02 PSD and all that happened was the check engine light remained lit. I removed mod and the light turned off. Is this mod not for an 02? If it will work am I just installing it wrong?
