    4R100 TC Lockup Mod Opinions?

    Steven, this mod really helps out folks who have older stock PCM programming. those folks with the older 99-01 7.3's with the NVK3, or XLT2 programming(which does not call for TC lock up in 3rd gear at all) for those that have PMT-1 and later programming it really is another gadget to add to...

    AC Shutting Off

    Spec is .025 with a minmum of .020 . you can adjust this by removing the outer part of the clutch (single 8mm bolt in the center) and removing one of the shims inside the mounting tube. Make sure you dont go below .020 or the clutch may not disengage when it should, which could lead to burning...

    dfuser's boost tube?

    All that thing does is drop the pressure supplied by the red line. It takes 8-10PSI from the red line, plus the pressure exerted from the exhaust gasses on the wastegate itself to fully open the wastegate. instead of wasiting your $6, adjust the throw on your wastegate by tightening the...

    Power Steering sucks

    Our trucks have what is called Hydroboost, the brake system uses fluid from the PS pump to apply pressure for the brakes. Try turning your wheels with out the brake depressed on level ground in the sand/dirt, is it easy. Also when sitting still you have a helluva heavy engine sitting right...

    CCV Mod issues

    Use 3/4" Heater hose. turn your dog house around backwards, route hose up over rear of master cylinder down firewall, follow inside of frame, terminate to open atomosphere. since you have created a small incline just out of the dog house, any oil will drain back into your dog house and back...

    Fault codes

    actually it means P0363= Misfire detected -fueling disabled which basically means the superchips has got your inj. timing so advanced that the PCM no longer recognizes the map it is running.

    Early '99 Exhaust ... Need Help ASAP

    not all 99's had a cat. only the handshakers. As far as the down pipe, IIRC the early 99 had a little bit different DP than the late 99's. Take a sawzall and cut the cat off before going to the muffler shop. Have the shop weld you a 4" straight pipe from that cut to what ever length you...

    Fault codes

    What tuner do you have? the KAM code means you have had the batts unpluged. KAM stands for Keep Alive Memory. The 1118 means you have either done the AIH delete or it has possibly shorted. Or since you are also throwing a Boost code, check to make sure that the AIH has not come loose .

    got my gauges

    Dave, I never said it wasn't easy, just more of a chance of cracking, since the manifold is more brittle, as far as the accuracy, I am not talking about placing the thermocouple up near the turbo, just about an inch away from the manifold. being that close to the # 8 exhaust port you will not...

    Tranny leak in center

    those are not tranny codes. p-0470 exhaust back pressure sensor error. p-0478 exhaust back pressure control valve input high. I know the superchips will not unlock IDM codes or allow you to perform KOEO tests( buzz test etc..). Did the O/D lighton the gear shift flash at you at any point...
