Holy cow!

I am not on here to much due to work and all, but I just wanted to share this with everyone. I know that most on this site speak highly of DP-tuner. I just installed the AIS severe duty intake and the DP-tuner 60,80,120. I was not aware that there was a chip already installed on the truck (I bought it used). It was a Hypertec, not sure what caliber. But when I took the DP for a test drive...........Holy cow! I cannot believe the difference on all levels. The next thing to do is install the 6.0 intercooler that I have (another day). To all, thanks for listening and thanks for the advice on DP.

Some day I will be able to say that. From what I have herd You need gauges to keep an I on egt and boost. If You don't have gauges I would not stay in it for long, or tow anything.

Here's several mods that I found to be especially useful for towing with my AIS/DP setup. The stock Ford setup draws hot intake air into the AIS from under the hood and forces 100% of the ambient air flow to go through the restriction of the AC condenser where it picks up a lot of heat before going through the IC.

This mod supplies more air to the AIS and supplies some airflow directly to the IC because I removed the rubber baffle on the right hand side of the AC condenser that blocks air flow to the IC.
