I do not like the fact that the recommended way to hold the chip into the PCM is 'cloth tape.' That just does not sound like a solution to a product I want to use for another 200,000 miles. I don't want people to think I'm bagging this product, because I am 100% in the DP-Tuner camp, but here are a few opinions of mine:īeing an engineer, I am all about the fit and finish and attention to detail of products. My 140 does not lope, but after discussing it with Jody and Diane, I learned that the lope can affect the driveability in that rpm range and I do have a aggressive/lope combo file, but it may require a little tuning to get it actually chop at idle (if that's what i want). No start also works and is a cool feature fo sho.
Hi idle works perfect, and I do not get a check engine light going to the stock setting. The clutch slips at maybe 3/4 throttle on the 120 and 140 settings going 60mph in 5th (6th, whatever you want to call it) gear. The 6spd is more of a PITA than ever because now I have to shift what seems like every half second. I can roll coal like I'm getting paid for it.
I drove a edge j/a'ed 01 cummins HO 6spd, and this is more fun to drive hands down. Driveability is so drastically improved I am actually still laughing out loud when I drive it. This is probably one of the coolest things I've ever done to any motor vehicle ever. This consists of removing the two 10mm bolts that hold it on. Inside the truck (since I have a giant clutch pedal in the way) the instructions point out it is easier to remove the PCM from the truck by removing the entire metal bracket it mounts to. Loosen the 10mm bolt in the PCM connector on the firewall side, and remove the connector. So.maintain's video pretty much covers the install process, but I figured I'd just do a really quick pic by pic.
Since I have a manual transmission, the 'tow' and 'economy' etc don't really apply. In the box comes your chip and switch, cable, instructions, detail sheet of the programs you ordered, and a little info sheet on how to use the switch. Very sweet setup, and great customer service off the bat considering he was willing to let me come to his house on a Saturday morning (when they are not open) to pick up my stuff.Īnyway, on to the goods. So I made a little trip to Hoschton Saturday morning and got a chance to meet Jody and pick up my new F5 and switch.
