You can with some of them but they dont recommend it and I dont think any of them will back their product results when stacked. I dont see why there would be a need to anyways.

This is a subject some of us are passionate about (the stacking, not the Jewish thing), so maybe he's trying to egg us on for a really long answer, especially since I tend to write essays at times (and go off on several tangents) when it comes to telling people the near endless reasons NOT to stack devices.

Tangent? Me? never!

Another FTE moment! A First. I agree with Vic on something.

Seriously, I obviously have a tendency to do research on something. I cannot find anywhere (other than sales promo) where it is recommended to stack chips. Even the tuner vendor docs I have read say don't do it.

The only real reason to stack is if you have a fuel box, and need transmission tuning.

You can't just stack random boxes, modules and tuners. To do it safely, you MUST go with a stack tune written SPECIFICALLY for the purpose of stacking with a SPECIFIC box. If not, you can run into some nasty injector timing issues, ect.

The only way to currently do it safely is via Superchips Custom Tuning, and even at that it is really only warrantied if you are racing the truck or pulling large loads on higher power settings with a module.

If you actually do have a purpose for doing so (OTHER than trying to milk the truck for more power, such as transmission issues) feel free to drop me an email.

I can help you with a Superchips Custom Tune if you need to stack. As noted above, there should be a good reason. One thing to note, putting out that much power isn't a good thing in the long run.

Can Motorhaven get the RacerPro packages? If someone needs real customability (and knows how to do it) this is most certainly the way to go.

You guys going to get the diesel SCT stuff up on your website soon?

Yes, we can get the Pro Racer package. The diesel stuff is the Xcalibrator we have listed.

If you look closely, you'll agree a lot more often
What is it that you disagree with so strongly?

I ask out or curiosity, not sarcasm....since most of what I post is related to actual hands-on reasearch, not re-"search" if you follow what I mean.
