Idm140

I did the IDM140 the other day. Didn't go too bad. Noticeably better throttle response.

OK....see, thats where I get confused....will I see the same throttle response and performance as everyone else doing the IDM mod with my DP Tuner? Or, does the DP already change the injector bandwidth enough to where I wouldnt see much of a difference?Also...if I do the shim in the FPR mod., same question...will I see a difference even with my DP?
Thx as always guys....Schlepprock

The DP Tuner will not decrease (speed up) the injector response time, but the 140v IDM mod will, by ~25%. I have noticed improvements with both these mods. I did the FPR shim before the DP Tuner(had SCMT then) and have "played around" with the pressure and found my truck seems to like ~65psi.

Dont tell jody you did the IDM mod, or he will tune the advanced timing out, and you'll be right back with what you started, no increase in performance
