My wife still thinks the chip's only purpose is theft prevention!

She has started liking my truck a little TOO much - if she found out that she could banish its off-idle sluggishness, she'd like it even more. THAT would be unacceptable!
That is funny
Hopefully the wives don't ever discover this website, or there will be trouble

1. 40 Tow

2. 60 Tow

3. 80 Econo

4. 100 Performance

5. 140 Extreme

6. Hi-Idle

I run 90% of the time in 60 Tow. Works really good around town with a manual tranny.

fordmdb - now that is interesting. I love my chip - but about the only thing I feel could have been a bit different is the OD shift point. Mine shifts into OD at about 42 MPH under normal driving - but there is a huge RPM drop and it does not seem optimal. Was that a special request that you worked out with Jody?

1- stock
2- hi idle (1100)
3- 50
4- 75
5- 100
6- 140.

run on 100 mostly, 140 for smokeshows, and also warm up on stock.
