2000 7.3 psd ts performance 6 position chip
 

hey guys new to the diesel world and i have installed a 4 inch magnaflow turbo back exhaust and a cold air intake. i am wanting to get a ts performance 6 position chip, i have heard great things about them and i was wanting yalls input. thanks for tha help.:tu:

I would send the TS Chip to Cale at Tyrant Diesel or Beans, heard great things about their tunes

Swamps, Beans, PHP, Tony Wildman, there are many sponsors on here that will reburn them as well. Mine is Swamps, LOVE IT! :choochoo:

Good tuners for sure! Beans will be coming on as a sponsor here shortly!

You also have Power Hungry Performance and Murff racing as sponsors here...

Then there is Swamps, Diesel Innovations, Elite Diesel, and Gearhead...

Once you have that TS chip, there are TON's of guys out there that are at the top of there game for 7.3 tuning!

im running murff racing and love em.

I'd also get ahold of DP tuner.. We've had great sucess with thier new F8 chip and Destiny software.

Only concern with the F-8 is so far no one has been willing to send tunes to put on one, other then DP... Which limits you to the same issue they were having with the F5 and F6. You are limited to there tunes only...

Just what I have experanced.

I second this too.

awesome! thanks for everybodys input that gives me something to work with.

I have a ts on the exact truck, I love it, just make sure u make sure the contacts on the PCM are clean of the wax they install on it from factory an that u sucure it in there nice an tight with tape. But other than that, it made a huge diff I'm mine,

jshblain- did you have to install a boost relief vavle on your truck?

This is because it has been misrepresented by posts like yours. A guy called me just yesterday from X company asking all about it because of this very reason. He was not surprised by the misinformation and is very interested in our F8 hardware for his tuning after learing of how the chip firmware is actually designed. We are just waiting for the okay with pricing from his employer.

If there is so much "misinformation" or "misrepresentation", why aren't full product details available when it's released for sale? IMO, if I feel the need to ask 100 questions on a product, or if no nitty gritty details are available on the spot, I refuse to buy it. To me it comes across as shady.

You will find this announcement on all forums we advertise on and the December issue of diesel power magazine on page 32. Open source hardware is not an unknown technology. It's been around since the mid 1990's.


Let me know if we can answer any questions you may have.

tmcclure, no i dont have a boost relief valve installed. on extreme unless u have a boost fooler installed your pcm will only let you boost 22.5 lbs-24lbs max before it kicks a light for over boost an defuels truck, if your gunna run extreme get a boost fooler, just make sure you keep an eye on your truck with the boost fooler. the fooler will tell you map that your running a max of 22lbs boost so it alows ur truck to keep fueling as needed. just be carefull with the boost fooler

so it is safer not to have one?

He is saying if you get a chip, you will want a boost annihilator or your truck will defuel over 22psi of boost.

yes i couldnt think of the correct name thank you. an yes an no. if you dont have the annihilator you will never get the full potential of your chip or truck, if your not planning on driving the thing like you stole it but get into it every now an then you should be fine. i have 267*** on mine an i plan on installing one.

is the boost annihilator adjustable?

Overboost Annihilator

Don't think so, But it will keep your truck from setting a CEL/SES everytime you get on it and boost gets above about 22-24psi.

so it really serves no purpose in a boost regulator at all just keeps the computer from throwing codes, right?

It serves the purpose of allowing your truck to continue fueling when you get above that boost pressure...

ok i got ya! thanks for all the info brotha!

alright boys i got the chip installed and man what a difference!! that thing is a huuugggeee difference from stock! thanks for everybody's advice and tips. i also installed the Sinister diesel Overboost annihilator as well and so far it has done its job. and why the hell didn't anybody tell me how tight it is to take the 10mm bolt out of the wiring harness, that was tough!:tu:

got the same year 7.3, Reading up on other peoples builds like this gives me great ideas for my future mods. any gains in mpg at all?

So far I have got 3 more mpgs witha semi heavy foot, the chip is well worth it!
