What do you wish someone made?
I wish they would make the cruise control more "forgiving." Instead of getting the boost and egt's way up to maintain speed. More like if the driver was controlling it. Lose a little speed, but maintain it most of the time. I always felt that I was losing mileage when using cruise control...- DezlWezl

A/C mod
What does teeing into the red one cut the water off for? That's the one I have teed into, and I get super-cold air in a/c and max a/c. Vent seems like ambient temp as well. Haven't thought about defrost, etc. but someone posted the instructions on TDS for the red line doint what you guys say...- DezlWezl

Multi-position chips
Definitely the Sonnax/Tricumulator kit at a minimum. A new T/C would be helpful. A "built" tranny from Brian's Truck Shop, MonsterBox or the like on the other end. A good rebuilder can at least upgrade the clutches, steels and such with better parts, but it'll cost ya. I know, I just had to...- DezlWezl

Radio noise after chip install
P.I.E. is an adapter by Precision Interface Electronics. They are an adapter made specifically to plug into the back of our stereos where the 6-disc changer would plug in. It avoids using FM modulation for satellite radio, etc. Much better sound. Talked about quite a bit on TDS. I'll have...- DezlWezl

Radio noise after chip install
My thoughts exactly. I installed it in line with a P.I.E. adapter for my Sirius unit and I get no external noise. I love it.- DezlWezl

Anyone using the 7.3 coolant filter kit from Bob Riley...
I put mine on in February, just before the water pump went out--too little, too late. Easy install except that I had to have custom bracket made by a buddy cuz I don't have the stock airbox/battery box. Mine is clamped to my Tymar intake. Due for first filter change next month. I'll be...- DezlWezl

Tranny issues
Mine is not within the build dates(born in january of 2000) for the mechanical diode problem Ford had with the late '00 and '01 trannies. I'm taking it to a very good shop on Friday for evaluation. He wants to see if the ECM is telling the tranny to shift and it won't, or if the ECM is not...- DezlWezl

Tranny issues
Recently, my tranny started shifting softer and softer. I have a sonnax/tricumulator and a chip that ups the line pressures, so my shifts should be very firm. Beyond that, it has started not shifting from 1-2 and 2-3. Yesterday I took it out to see if anything was different, and it started...- DezlWezl

Dieselsite 6-Position
I gotta recommend any chips with Jody Tipton's(DP-Tuner) tuning on them. I have a 4-position chip that is flat out awesome. I am going to have him replace the 40hp setting with his super economy setting. I tow 5k with the 100hp setting and it rocks-egt's are great. In fact, my egt's are...- DezlWezl
