with my stage 1 injectors, i seen a big difference when i added a 14.7k mod to my truck with the superchip. you will def see more smoke and power. how much will depend on if you have the sticks already. be on the look out for a rougher idle. dont worry its fine.

From everything I've read on here. If you buy a burned chip, you shouldn't have to do the resistor mod. But to each his own. can always fine tune. =)

Maybe the SuperChips don't do it.

I know if TW burns a chip for you, you don't need the resistor mod.

Depends on the truck man.
You'll have to try both and see which works better.

Some people here are running 26k.

The IDM mod is the BB mod.

The resistor mod fools the IDM. (I think its the IDM)
The resistor mod fools the truck into creating a higher fuel pressure.
The BB Mod creates more oil pressure.

Aww poo, memory went to crap. =\

the resister mod is for the icp. it regulates how much pressure is pushed through the injectors. right now i am running 20k on icp the resistor on eot is for engine oil temp. the higher the resister in ie: 4.7 8 10k determines how cold the pcm comp thinks the oil is.i found 4.7k is best for my truck if you put a resister in the eot plug wire then it will trick the engine to thinkin the oil is cooler than it really is which in turn advances the timing. the bb mod deals with the fpr (fuel pressure regulator) if your fuel pressure reading is low stick a bb on the end of the fpr spring and it raises the pressure. should be round 70 or 80psi. finally the idm mod is when you swap out one of the resisters on the idm (injector drive module) if done corresctly you will boost your volts up to 140 which is higher than a SD i believe. hope this helps you guys out

No they are not the same thing. The BB is for shim the FPR, the resistor mode could be for the ICP or for the IDM, both are also different modes.
