I think an 03 should be a 120 idm thus you will need the 73.2 resistor, but you can not be sure without looking.
My 00 has a 120 idm & I used the 73.2k

Everything built after 99 has an IDM-120 in it. The only notable exception is the E-series vans. I think they used the IDM-110 for the full 7.3 run. The IDM-100 is only found in the 94-97 PSD trucks.

I have several 73.2K and 75.0K resistors left if you need one. Send me a PM with your contact info. I also would be interested in aquiring another spare IDM, so let me know in that PM what you need for that as well.

I will be doing this mod some day, hopefully soon thanks to Scott/cookie for sending the resistor. I just have too much going on and cannot afford to jack the truck up right now with my beer goggle enhanced mitts. I don't even have the proper iron for it right now. I hope to get my crap together soon so I can enjoy the rest of the summer. I have not even had my boat in the water or gone golfing once this year. That's just frigging

Well mine is going in the water real soon Justin. I need to get rid of the fuel in the tank despite having stabilizer in it. Not good for these things to sit too long. Another reason I need the truck. Sorry for the jack.

We ran our first tank through, if they don't work us this saturday we are going to try for it, agreed sorry for the jack. Scott have you seen this mod done on the OBS trucks and how much difference it has on them? I know the 120V IDM is suppost to be a great impovment I am sure this would far surpass that.

I hear you on this. I have not done either one yet this summer too. I played golf 3 days a week last summer. It goes to show how much you play when you have to start paying for golf since my buddy quit working at the golf course lol.

Would live tuning from Jody be better then doing the 140 mod? Does someone have a thread that tells what exactaly this mod does? I read a few post on this, but it was only how to do the install. Thanks
