What can I expect if I chip it, put on the K&N air filters along with a stainless exhaust???
Sharkey...Whatever you do, DON'T chip it! It's VERY addicting. I just added 100hp to mine. OH MY GOSH! This thing hauls A$$. I'm having A LOT of fun at stop lights right now.

It's money well spent IMO.

Good luck,

Buck

Just a heads up for any Dodge 2003 5.9 Cummins Diesel truck owners:

2 recalls came out.

The trans fluid line running up to the cooler needs to be updated.

The plugin connection for the tranny may need to be resealed or replaced.

Check with your dealers.

And to think tonight I was able to stay with another Dodge SWB "GAS" truck tonight off the line...
It would have been nice to have the chip though....

We need to have you out front in situations like that. It's just uncalled for.

2000 4x4 Ford Explorer. Pull a 20 ft bowrider. (3200 lbs) HA, just wanted to add my bowrider and little SUV to the mix . Bought the Explorer when I worked for Ford and got it cheap.. Good thing too, cause it is total POS. Wanna buy it? 3 transmissions. (well valve bodies and rebiulds) & 2 rear ends later, it might work fine to goto the mail, but a tow vehicle it sure aint.

2004 F350 Dually. Has Edge Module with Attitude Gauge Monitor, DPPI Dual Exhaust, and Pro-Guard 7 ram air filter. At the track I ran a 13.98, and I had a 2003 Ford Ligtning 3/4 down the track, he finished in at 13.69. The module alone adds 115hp/290tq, (Dynoed @ 147hp) great for towing. For my birthday Sandy got me some HiPo injectors for 60 hp and a propane kit, this diesel stuff is alot of fun.
