I've read all about the 140V upgrade in Diesel Power Magazine and online, but I have yet to see anything about the high frequency Swamps is using. Has anyone done the Swamps mod too? If so, hows it work compared to just doing the 140V mod? I've got the resistor to do the 140V mod, but if Swamps is worth it I'll wait and do them together.

Swamp's did tell me that if you already have a 140 IDM and its not a competition truck that it probably wouldn't be worth having the mod done.

That is a great link on how the IDM - Injectors work, especially the Injector Waveform analysis. Tried to rep you but got to spread it around some more.

Does anyone know what Swamps would charge? I'm taking the IDM out soon anyways to do the 140V mod, and if the price is right i may just see if they can do it all.
