    The New Stealth Pumps will be available in Jan. 08'

    :lmao i can only do so much with those little resistors on my stock pump. just think what i could do with my resistors if i got a pulse!!!!!!!!! LoL. on edit--- you can put a 22k resistor inline on your icp and then a 5.6k resistor jammed in the plug the old way and after you run it like...

    why is there a diff between being cold and warm?

    thank you..:cool: although it is true that all the fluids are cold and do have an effect on drag, but i don't think they would make that much of a difference.. but i can easily be wrong. so i will agree that all the fluids being cold makes a big difference on performance. but my mom's dodge...

    suggestions on stereo stuff??

    yeah, i just want a clean sounding system. i like a lot of bass sometimes, but most of the time i just want a nice clean system that sounds good and when people hear my system they just say how clean sounding it is at all sound levels. not just how loud it is. loud isn't everything to me.

    18k mod

    yeah i saw a little more when i first stepped on it, but i also saw that the smoke kept coming out. it wasn't much, but it did continue to smoke at all times while i had the petal to the metal instead of one puff then nothing like the regular 10k mod.

    suggestions on stereo stuff??

    why is there a diff between being cold and warm?

    97powerstroker, your truck runs better after the engine is warm in cold weather because the turbo is putting colder air into your engine. the cooler the air charge means the denser the air charge making your engine run better and more efficiently. does your truck run bad just when it's below...

    18k mod

    ok, the 10k mod is a 10k resistor that plugs into the ICP sensor on the drivers side valve cover. the ICP sends a signal to the computer telling it the oil pressure being sent to the injectors, IIRC. now when you put a resistor in this plug or inline(the way i did it) you make the signal that...

    why is there a diff between being cold and warm?

    i believe the cold performance has a lot to do with oil temperature. cold oil is very thick oil. your powerstroke's injectors are run from the oil pressure right? the oil can flow as easily when it's cold and thick right? resulting in less oil pressure until the oil gets up to temperature...

    18k mod

    i'm on it!!! :D so here is what you need: 22k resistors from radioshack, wire crimpers, and a pack of male and female bullet terminals. now, cut the blue wire that goes into the ICP, then strip the ends and connect a female terminal on one of the ends and a male end on the other so you will be...
