Glad you got it running with out any issues this time.

I'm having a really really hard time figuring out why your going to switch tuners... Do you just want to spend more money or what??? i mean you get free reburns for life with Tony's tuning and he knows these 7.3's as good or better than the others do(he has been tuning them for a long azz time).. it's your money, but i really don't see the point. mine runs 10x better than it did on the stage 1 tuning. it's been so long since i ran the stage 1's i don't remember what it was like, but i do know that it smoked like crazy on his stage 1 tuning(with stage 2 injectors), but now it hardly smokes at all even in the big tune unless i floor it, then it smokes a ton. lol

Give him the name of the original owner of the chip and tell him you bought the chip from him(or the truck). maybe he will cut you a nice deal..

Ya but B codes are thirsty ****'s and I don't want to need $4k in HPOP's to make it down the track hahaha. And it has been proven that you don't need the b codes to make big power, so why spend the extra money.

You ever thought about DP?
I have two chips right now and both are burned for II's and a 5 speed. I really need to get back to one chip. I have way too much in one of them.
Just a thought...
