PMR's

Will I be safe running the 140 setting on a TS chip (every once in a while) with PMR's? I have an DIY intake, 5" ehaust. I also have a warranty on the engine until for another 35K miles!!!!!!

PMR's start failing over 450hp. With your setup, I dont think you will be over 400 so you should be just fine. If you start doing injectors, turbos etc is when you need to start looking at some forged rods.

Some have failed lower than 400 so..I'd make sure you have custom tunes on the TS chip and currant ones at that.

good luck with that warranty when you have a failed PMR with a chip code in the PCM

According to TS there is no way to detect the chip after removal.
