and do you recommend getting the chip or the ecu flash bc i was leaning more towards the ecu flash bc i am also about to invest in a defuser steriod-t module to stack on top of that. but not sure which one to get bc the flash seems to be the best bang for buck

not really sure, Id give jody a call but i can say it does spin more from a dead stop and throws you back more then the 120.

I would get the chip, Ive read numerious times that stacking on our 7.3's does very little or nothing. Or at least its not worth the extra hundreds of dollars you would be spending.

I like being able to switch back and forth to different tunes, plus jody told me that a weak HPOP wont be able to keep up with the 140 so if you find out you cant you can just switch back to stock.

well i have dual hpops on my truck and currently i have the ts 140 stacked on top of the dfuser 18k module and i can tell a big diff. when i take that 18k off. but i'm just anting that constant power without having to spend the money for the chip thats why i'm getting rid of my ts bc somebody made me an offer i couldn't refuse and my dad is wanting to buy the 18k off of me. but would ya'll recommend dp over ts anyday bc that is all i have heard on this site is about dp and i'm wanting to get on to see how good it really is

truck pulls-hope you have a built tranny. you will notice jusy how weak your stocker is after you get it tuned by DP. I got a John Woods valve body to help, and it does, i just need to save some coin and get a real tranny

Those two settings do not match up. You ought to call Jody or even TS. Sled pulling tunes are not the best for the street hot rod scene. One is a full-on effort and the other is massaging the entire system to work well. Any competant tuner can set you up but you cannot have both on a PCM flash from my knowledge.
