wont do any more harm then a regular chip. putting a shift kit in to eliminate the sloppy shifts is the best thing to do irregardless of what mods you do

my last truck i sold with 65k on it and this one has roughly 100k, give or take a couple. not sure on exact numbers. i have a few other friends that run it as well, they have as many trouble free miles as i do if not more.

it works on the similar principle as the bully dog tricumulator kit but instead of installing stiffer springs i just drill the holes
