I just installed a DP-Tuner in my 2000 F350 - 7.3L CC LB, 9" lift, 39.5 IROKS (summer), 37" TSL (winter ) Install of the tuner consisted of - Removing PCM plug from PCM through engine compartment. Removing PCM from under steering column Disassembling PCM box Cleaning off silicone. Clipping on the chip. Duct taping chip for security Reassemble PCM Reinstall PCM Route cable to tuner. Done. I also installed a boost annihilator to “correct” MAP pressure readings Steps - Remove electrical connection from MAP Remove pressure line from MAP Remove pressure line from manifold Place factory hose clamps onto new hoses Loosen MAP and put the BA inbetween MAP and bracket Tighten those 2 screws Route new hoses to MAP and manifold Reconnect electrical. Done. Then I put a pre-runner bar on the front. Remove 4 bumper bolts Remove bumper Zip tie the prerunner bar to bumper Try to hold up the bumper, the bar, and screw in the bumper bolts 30 minutes later you have one bolt started Go to the other side and start those… Now put the 2nd on in the first side, but lift the bumper as high as it will go Now loosen the other side and lift that as high as it will go too Tighten everything Wonder why you haven’t bought fog lights for it yet Then go for a testdrive in 4" of snow… BTW - All of the above was done in last nights blizzard… my truck won’t fit in my garage. I brought the PCM into the garage to work on the bench… but it snows in there… the birds ripped all ofthe weather seal out of the ridge vent… lol As far as the tuner goes. Wow. This is the shit-eatin-grin everyone has been talking about. My current tunes are : Improved stock 60 tow 80 econo 120 race 140 extreme Simply amazing. I highly recommend DP Tuner to everyone. My truck went from a complete slug… to “quick”. Jody (DP-Tuners owner) also modified my shift points for each tune. Tow holds gears longer, econo shifts nice and low in the RPM range. Race and Extreme are just amazing. This truck sings. Even with the big tires on it, I can spin them from a roll. Of course there is salt on the road, but this was at like 30mph. If I was running my little winter tires… I could smoke all 4 I think. Next will be a BTS valve body… and maybe an intake. 140 extreme also adds a lot of fuel, so I look like a freight train going down the road. From a stop, dry road, 20’ smoker w/o brake boosting. Pics up when the weather clears ---

Sounds nice!Programmers do a lot for turbo diesels… I had a 6gun on my cummins ram and it deffintly pulled a lot better top end…but low end wasn’t the greatest. I then bought a smarty programer which greatly increses fuel in low boost situations for awesome low end power(and a TON of smoke) Stock my truck ran a 8.7 0-60 with a boosted launch and with the smarty turned on #9 and banks on 3 (out of six) I ran a 0-60 time of 6.2 in 4x4. in 2 wheel I would just roast the one wheel off untill i let of the gas (no lsd) I’m assuming you are subscribed to diesel power? if not I suggest you should, a TON of good info. They are a bit biased to the cummins engine… but they are getting more into the powerstrokes and duramaxs over the years. ---
