Oh no another DP Tuner thread...

Well......................I ordered one up today . Talked to Jody and he was very informative and helped me out a lot. Man i'm stoked probally some sleepless nights coming up. I got NS/Stock/60T/80E/140agg/Drivethru. I did forget to mention that my trucks lifted with 38's so i called him and hopefully that will go into consideration(if it matters) before the chip is sent out. THANKS A LOT JODY AND DIANE the process of ordering something custom over the phone couldn't have been easier. and thank you FTE for helping me pull the trigger it was an obvious choice when picking out a chip, go with the DP . haha this feels like im accepting an award, i'd like to shout out to(insert person here). Hopefully it will arrive this week, if not i'll have it for finals week and i'll report on my results.

THere was a thread about the drive thru not too long ago- I don't know exactly what it does.

Actually the thread talked more about laszy fat azzes not willing to get out of thier truck thusly needing a drive thru tune LOL. I'm one of them, especially with kids in the back seat....

The drive through tune quiets the motor down so the chick at McDonald's doesn't say "PLEASE SHUT YOUR CAR OFF, I CAN'T HEAR YOU!!!!" like she did to me today

Congrats on the new toy for your truck, and also for you. Let us know how the install goes and the after math.

Can you start your truck in that tune? And let it warm up in it also? I haven't heard this could be done. Does anyone know about this?

They tested that and you cant start yout truck in the tune because there isnt enough ICP, they posted that in the other thread. they also said dont go over 5-10 MPH I believe.
