Wicked wheel maybe. I just got my DP tune and have a little surge from turbo so that would be my next purchse. Sure is great power though!

That banks quick turbo should come with the WW as well as the bigger exhaust housing. Between the two, your surge issues should be pretty much cured. If you're using the Big Head Actuator too, and actually leave the red line plugged in (I didn't), you might not need anything in your MAP line. However, if you are overboosting and setting an SES light, I would go with the regulator from ITP instead of a relief valve. The regulator won't "leak" the extra boost like a relief valve will.

Not bad at all. Jody sends some instructions on how to do it, complete with color photos. Basically you just take a sctoch brite pad and use some acetone to clean the connectors. They are covered with some silicon from the factory and your mainly just trying to get all of the silicon off the terminals.

I second that -- you're gonna love it

I've got the 6-way DP chip: stock, 40, 60, 80, 100 and 120. I had been running the 80 mode pretty much all the time for commuting. I switched down the the 60 mode and really like it much better for some reason.

The 60 mode combined the the IPX oil crossover (HPX) really seems to smooth everything out. I'm knocking wood, but my truck's never run better and it just ticked past 118k.

I hardly ever run the 100 or 120 -- I did run the 120 once just to smoke a Banks Dodge who thought he was hot.

That 120 setting amazed me. I've never been able to light up the tires from a dead stop on dry pavement with my big beast until I had Jody's chip installed. Not that I do that often. Tires aren't cheap.
