Just Test Drove the DP

Just installed my DP-TUNER about 15 Minutes ago and just got done test driving it. Way more power than the edge evolution or juice with att. and alot smoother shifting. I give it a 10. It wasn't bad to put in at all. Took me about 15 Min. Im really impressed with it. I've been on here listening to everyone talk about them for over a year and have just been putting it off.

LOL..... Nice story.

I raced a ricer, and a pair of Expy's that were racing each other the night I put mine in. I happened on them at a light on a 6-lane road, so those two took off, then I went around both of 'em.

Sounds like we have another satisfied member of the permagrin club. Be prepared to let the fuel mileage go down and the wallet be empty. After i got mine i decided that I waited to long to get mine. And now I dont know how i would live without it

I keep thinking my truck sucks in the morning, then at the next stop I remember that I had it on stock from going over only one from the no start. Keep thinking to myself it wasn't this slow last night...

eBay Motors: 99/03 FORD 7.3 POWERSTROKE SUPER TURBO TURBOCHARGER (item 180343581895 end time Apr-11-09 12:39:52 PDT)

would this turbo handle stage 2 injectors?? Or is it a waist of money and just buy a new garrett?
