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.

That's next weekend, not this weekend. Unless my reading/comprehension skills let me down again. 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.

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.
