I am going to say it now, You are wlecome, for the advice on the 140. Trust me, tomorrow when you run the 80, and then the 120, your are gonne be like Oh man it dont get any better...... BUT WAIT, IT DOES, then you hit the 140 and get on the loud pedal, and it will make your sticker peck out

Do not post back a response to this till after you have tried it.

Permagrin Update: The DP is in....

Well, the DP didn't come on the truck i hoped but it got here, at 1:30pm. So what i did was i took everything out and cleaned the contacts for the chip and when it arrived, bam, it was in. Now after warming up a bit it was time to hit the road. When you all say the SC and the DP is like night and day, its the truth. I tried the 60 tow, just what i need for towing, perfect. On to the 80 econo, nice and easy shifts but powerfull when you mash on it. The 120, ha, all i can say is, RUDE. 140, THIS TUNE IS CRAZY. Didn't see any smoke because i had to keep my eyes on the road. Tomorrow is another day.. Satisfied 100%.
