It's In

All I can say is wooooooooooooooooooow, I was able to get my DP TUNER installed today, took it for a short ride to check it out, this thing is great I should have done it sooner. Next mod it the valve body from Brian. This is going to be funnnnnnnnnnn.

Cool deal on the DP install. Is it not a kick in the pants when you hit it hard? Welcome to the club.

I can't wait for you to get the DP. I was the way you are, Superchips. You will understand what we say about the difference.

Hurry with the gauges.

Excellent choice in tunes, now it is time for the gauges I was suprised how quick my EGTs went up after I got mine especially in the super smoke tune. Have fun with the VB install it is well worth it and simple, but you have to get your chip reflashed now.

If your chip is flashed for the valve body, then do not run it over 40hp, and do not get on it hard until that matching valve body is installed.

AGREED! I ran my truck in stock for a couple of weeks even the 60T was very rough felt like the tranny wanted to fall out after only one try.

Dang, I'm jealous!!! But not for long!!!! Mine will be delivered today!! I was going to do the install this weekend, but I may just squeeze it in this afternoon!! I get home about 3:00pm, and if UPS has been by, I should have plenty of time! Once it's in, I'll change the signature. Not until then, though!!
