Talking very cool

i had just installed my stage 1 diy injecters. They are very good my truck is a whole new truck now, but i am curious because i have a edge evolution programmer with them now and i was wondering how much more horsepower i could get with a dp or tony wildman tuner, tuned with setting set up for those injecters. Then what would be my next best upgrade...o ya it is such a disease once you start beefing up your stroker.

Powerstroke mod syndrome is a killer ain't it. I honestly can't say how much better it would be with a custom chip over what you have. But I would guess it would be very noticable. Jody or Tony will do you up right. I don't think you'll be sorry. Fill in your sig in User CP so we know what you have or haven't done. Or just tell us here on this thread. Once we know where you've been, we can help get you to where you want to go. Later.

yes let us know what you already have then we can make some usggestions. Also you will see a very noticeable increase in power with a chip burned for your injectors. Very Noticeable!

Just a quick "hmmm"...

If I go with stage 1's (or better) will I have issues with DEQ testing, or if I set the chip to stock, will the injectors just push out the same air / fuel mixture as the originals under the stock setiing?

If your stage 1's have the stock nozzles they will flow the same amount of fuel as your original injectors with stock programing. You will still be able to pass inspection on the stock setting.

if your trans is already slipping nothing will stop that other than a rebuild. if its in good shape now then Joe's stuff will prolong its life.

A good solid tranny will make a difference. The torque conveter will get more power to the ground faster and a solid shifting tranny will also.
