I just did this about 20 mins ago. More smoke and could tell a power increase. I have 15.6 in there right now and thats probly what i will keep in there. Berfore, from a dead stop i would get no tire spin now with the 15.6 they will spin.(sometimes) Thinking about swaping a 22K or add another 10K to see what it does. But im pretty pleased with it. Really only took 5 mins.

I have my superchip tuner on "No Tow" and "Off Road" with the 15.6 in there. Do you guys think this is a bad idea for daily driving. I dont have guages yet so I cant watch anythin.
Thanks
John

 

thats how i have mine set and i never change it when i tow, the 22k wont work right, dont waste the .99 cents.....lol. i too have no gauges, when you tow, tow smart. dont lug it, let it downs shift if need be and dont race everybody to the top of the mountain. my engine still lives playing by those rules. gauges will be coming eventually

 

First of all I like to give credit to Joe Awesome Mod. Here is my step by step on joe's mod... http://community.webshots.com/album/560800265IPBkBW

 

Ok thanks. I read ur post on the 22k and just wanted to feel that power and see the smoke for a few seconds. I had no plans on leaving it there. I dont tow much but i know to be careful anyhow. Guages will be in the next month or 2.

Thanks agian
John

 

if all you want is to see lots of smoke then pop the 22k in and rev it up a little bit, this is what you get

it doesnt drive very well

 

oh and by the way i love the promotion in your signature

 

Cool thanks. If im bored on a rainy day i might try it out. Oh and no problem on the promotion.

 

oh ya forgot to ask somthing.

I noticed form a dead stop if I floor it a poof of smoke comes then its pretty clear then it gets dark again. Probly isnt anything but just thought I would ask if this is normal. And we will probly be doin the mod to my buddy 01 f350 tomarrow when we get back from hunting. It will be the first mod for him.
Thanks
John

 

just the way it adjusts off load

 

Thanks thats what i figured. Had to ask just to make sure.
Thanks
John

 

Is there any issue I need to be aware of with this mod on my 5spd? I was going to install it for my trip to TN Wednesday toing my trailer (7000lb). Naturally, I am going to be rolling higher rpm's becasue of the 4:10 and it being a 5spd.

 

Should not be any different than an automatic. this mod does nothing to change the transmition. Happy travels

 

if you dont have gauges then definatly dont lug the engine, egt's are bound to be more of a factor with any icp mod installed.

 

i drive my truck everyday with a 15.6k resistor put in the coonhunterjoe way. my truck is also a 5 speed and i have no problems what so ever.

 

Joe-
Nice write up. I did mine yesterday replacing the old method I had originally used.
Bumped it immediately to 15.6k and like that resistance better than 10k.
Truck idles a little smoother and I can feel the difference in power over the 10, especially at low rpm. The engine used to lope at low rpm under load but it is now very smooth.
I repped you Saturday or Sunday before I even re-did the mod.
