New to the diesel world and loving it!!!
 
okay so i just bought a 99 f-250 super duty 7.3 powerstroke. so far i straight piped it and put stacks on it. thought it would be fun to roal some coal when im out messing around:tu: and found a way to make a smoke switch but its not as good as i hoped so now im looking at buying a TS performance 6 position chip. how are they? planned on getting the stock,valet?, 50hp, 7hhp, and 100hp settings. will that help me out? this is another more aggressive setting but i just have the stock tranny. next is what guages should i get so i dont melt everything?

what is the build date on your truck? if it is a e99 with the XLE computer you will have to have custom tunes to make it smoke. a late 99 has the NVK computer and tuning is much better!

its the later model. and do you know what guages to get?

POWER-STRUCK 04-03-2013 02:32 PM

late 99 can use NVK or PMT programming. you should get boost, pyro, and trans temp gauges
