Does it have to be a TS chip for it to be burned by PHP?

TS blank... 95% of the chips sold today for the 7.3 are TS blanks, then burned by someone else...

Example, in my truck now I have 4 TS blanks, one has Swamps tuning, one has Elite tuning and one has TW tuning... the other I dont know, I think its just a blank right now.

Thanks guys for yall's help. I've always had a special place in my heart for PowerStrokes, but never really got a chance to help someone with them, nor did I have a chance of studying them more often. I'll keep yall posted on whether or not my friend gets the truck. He's definatley wanting to take the muffler off and adding a 7in Stack to the 4in exhaust. Its a silverline system, so I guess we're going to buy that universal 4in stack elbow from Alligator Performace, and a nice chrome MBRP 7in stack.

The headlights need to be changed, so we're probably going to go with the 02-04 Headlights and to add some character we'll get some HIDs and a nicely sized International logo for the back glass. And of course Tint.

Any suggestions on what else we could do on a small budget?

The truck already has a Boost guages, Pyrometer Gauge, and Tranny Temp gauge. This thing is already set nicely. Just needs the stack, headlights, and a nicely tuned chip.

With the PHP 140 tune, how good of a running truck we talking here? How does it compare to 2nd gen 24 valve Dodges? He keeps asking me how this chip will keep up with the rest of the trucks, I honestly dont know how it would run with the rest. Can someone give him a idea

A 7.3 w/ a good custom tune, intake and exhaust will smoke a 12v w/ all fuel mods (afc tuning, fuel plate, smoke screw tuned..), boost elbow, intake and exhaust, if that puts things into perspective.
