You're suppose to give updates when you get it back and put a few miles on it, not ask questions when you sent it off. :dang:

We are taking our trucks saturday, they do on-board tuning...just wanted to know before i spent the cash:w2:

That's next weekend, not this weekend. Unless my reading/comprehension skills let me down again. :ouch: Either way, I'm very curious, I talked to PHP, but never got around to sending my FICM or paying the deposit on the programmer. Too many projects.

Cash? What the I LOVE TURTLES is cash!?!

I'm most interested in the MPG results. Dyno numbers are way cool, but at this point, I'm getting plenty out of mine, except MPG. :pca1:

Let us know. PHP does good work. I've heard good things about them. A lot of the 7.3 guys use their custom tunes too.

They say the 03/04 trucks wont notice it as much as the 05+ trucks, because your factory FICM tuning is already better than ours. Which is why I've liked every one of the older FICM's I've tried.

im getin it done at such a discounted price that i have nothing to lose:tu:

You didn't like mine! :lol88:

Or mine!

Mdub707 02-06-2012 08:30 AM

Yeah actually I'm pretty sure both of yours are still sitting on my bench completely unusable. I actually think I'm going to try frankensteining the two of them together, swapping halves of them. Hopefully one will work... haha.

Let me rephrase... I've liked every single one of the earlier FICM's that has functioned correctly haha.

Ask EricC about his... one of the best one's I've ever used. He actually texted me one day and thought something was wrong with his truck because of how quiet it idles. I think he was just trying to rub it in my face :ouch:. LOL :c:

we will find out if its worth it tomorrow guys:tu::yeah:

Thanks for the update. How cold does it get by you? Do they blend your fuel at all?
