the basics are gauges, intake, exhaust and a chip.

A resistor on the ICP is fun. I tried that for a while on top of a SuperChips programmer. Also did the exhaust brake mod with the warmup valve. It was a 5spd f350 crew 4x4.

When you do an oil change, make sure there's still a relief valve in the base (cooler end-housing). Mine was missing, and I got a 99+ cooler instead.

A resistor on the ICP sensor or 10k mod as its called will net you almost no HP and can cause more problems in the end. Do not do it unless you like half assing your pickup.
