A question about chips
I'm thinking about putting a chip in my truck, it's a 95 PSD 5 speed, I've already done the downpipe and exhaust and the 6637 intake and love the results. This truck is used primarily for towing a travel trailer, I don't want to make smoke or burn rubber, just want some extra get up and go when towing through the mountains.
One question about the chips is, How do they actually work?
I've been considering the TW and DP chips, kind of leaning towards the DP but not sure yet.
Jody reccomends the F5 with no-start, stock, 60hp tow and 80 hp econo settings..What's the purpose of no-start? Doesn't make much sense to me but then again, I'm a newbie here..
Any advice you guys might have would sure be appreciated.

I think that the "No Start" is a theft deterrent. You might also consider getting the "Stock" setting as well. You never know when you might need to return to the stock setting.
It is also useful should the truck start acting up you can always return to stock just to eliminate the chip as the problem. jmho
