I've been an OBS guy for a couple of years, but just got my wife an 03 7.3. I think I did well 16,500 it is a limited 4wd in great condition. It currently has a banks six gun tuner, with the banks exhause system. I am assuming the six gun needs to go away and be replaced by a Tony Wildman or DP tuner chip? Any thing else I should know or think about doing right away?
We got an 03 Excursion about a month ago. Your wife will love it. I love mine.

I just put a dp tuner chip in my inlaws 00 excursion, you may remember the 3 day long conversation, the mileage went from 15.5 to 19 and all we did was add the chip, one position 80 hp econo, that is why I am going to pull the six gun and throw a chip in asap
Exhaust, Intake, gauges, and then definitely a DP tuner. I'd also recommend an improved valve body when you do the chip (BTS is what i have and love it).
great starter mod, i think. Provides better filtration and reduces/eliminates air in the diesel, smoother running engine, increased life of injectors.
Some have made their own kits, but for the price it was easier for me to just buy this one. I also added a carter lift pump to aid the factory fuel pump

Awesome!! Jody has been playing no my truck too much to get a good acurate mpg average on mine. Road trip this weekend though. I'll be keeping a log.
