DP-TUNER?
when they say you cant switch on the fly does that mean u have to be in park? and if you did switch on the fly what would happen?
ive rolled up to a stop signs and switched while rolling, seems there is no problem with that. any input would br great thanks.

Yes you can switch on the fly it what ever gear, going what ever speed and like Darin said don't do it under WOT conditions. I always pull my foot off the accelerator completely and then switch tunes, and I have yet to have a problem in the 2.5 years I've had it.

That's because the 140 will have higher fueling and timing in that setting, whem I had my custom chip from jim over at PSN I hads a 100hp setting that I loved, it started much cleaner and reasier in the morning due to the high timing advance. Like rich said, we both opull our foot off to switch, I always switch tunes when I'm at idol, mostly because its a 5spd but my last truck I had the same behavior.

Yes you can swith on the fly you just don't want to switch at WOT or while you are tugging on it pretty hard. Only switch it when you are cruisein and not on the go pedal hard.
The drive thru setting on mine smokes bad too. Yes it is nice and quiet but you have to have the passenger window up. Kind of defeats the purpose if you ask me. I don't use my DT setting because of that.

Has he changed the drive thru tune in the last year or so? I had drive thru added to mine when he was in Spokane last year and I have the same problem as Neal... people behind me in the drive through REALLY hate it when I use that tune 
Lots of awful smelling white smoke.

To make it quiet Jody has to do certian things in the tune. The smoke can be adjusted, but you have to give up some of the quiet. I would not leave it in the drive thru tune if you think you will be in line a long time. I use mine for a minimum of 1-2 minutes. Smoke is not an issue for me using it for just a minute or two. I have stock injectors though.

At regular idle it is too smokey for me.
