Is this the right chip?
Hello all,

James

Jody has his own company, DP-Tuner. Contact him directly with the link that Nut posted above. You will not be disappointed by the performance of his tunes.
Flip chips, 6 position chips, 4 position chips, etc are all generic names for the chip. They could come from anyone if just called by that name, and there are a bunch of people out there who sell chips. But, the programs on the chip, the "burn" of the chip is different for all of them. That burn is what makes each one unique.

You will be spending a lot more money after talking to Jody tho. You will find one reason after another to "improve" the truck till you are broke, sell your kids, etc, etc. I haven't because I have no kids to sell. His tunes are addictive. A week after I got my PCM reflashed by him I was thinking of a 6 pos chip. That plan was interrupted because my trans took a dive. Before then it was the BTS VB and 4 in exhaust. Who knows what it next? Bigger turbo or intercooler? Bigger engine?

Thanks Nut and JT,
Placed my order!
JT, wired up your exh brake/tc lock while camping this weekend just need to install it. Have a question about the PCM/EBPV connections, on the diagram you show them connected but in your pics you are connected straight to the EBPV connector and tapped into the TC (purple w/yellow) connector. Is this all I need to do as well?

Glad to help. 
I have complete manual control over my EBPV. It is not connected to the PCM at all. I just show it in my diagram, in case someone wants to leave the factory function of it hooked up, hence the need for the diodes. Also, there are no diodes in my EBPV wires, as I have it wired up, as there isn't a need for them with it not being connected to the PCM.
As for the TC lock, it's not just tapped into the puple w/yellow wire. You actually have to cut that wire and run it from the PCM through the relay, then back to the other half of the wire you cut which will go to the TC.

Yeah, he's one of my favorite Tennesseans. A real man to be proud of. If he had his way, all of our trucks would be in a crusher due to their affects on the already alarming global warming crisis. Perhaps it's due to his excessive oxygen consumption and alarming CO2 emissions during his rants.

I just can't believe all the things he did for us, what in the world did we do before he came along, and I won't even get into my Tipper rant!
But on a serious note, I appreciate everyones responses here and the friendly atmosphere. Even when newbs ask the same old questions the responses are usually pretty civil compared to other forums I've been on.
