Nothing, get a custom tuned chip and be done with it. 7.3s are not cummins

Only chips I would stack are pringles...

You CAN'T stack a chip and programmer on a 7.3... The chip will override any tuning that was installed by the programmer... There are better ways to throw money down the drain...

Also, gonna move this thread to the correct section, welcome to Diesel Bombers, take a look through our vast amount of information and learn a few things!

By installing a flash program from an edge and throwing on a ts or banks chip... Like i said before, the chip will override any other programming on the pcm...

You can stack a fooler chip like an Edge with either a programmer or even a custom one like a DP or Ts and possibly even triple up by doing a reburn to the PCM but as pointed out you dont gain anything and risk some serious issues. You end up WAY advancing the timing and also WAY overwhelming the HPOP. Go talk to Jody at Dp Tuners. By far the best programming on the market.

PS Double Juiced w/attitudes over an SCT 80 tow was fun till the funny rattle started
