tell him to dump that generic chip and get a custom tuned chip that will take full advantage of his mods....

he needs something that is tune dto his bigger turbo and injectors.. the TS chip is tuned for a regular truck.....

yah its not pushing enough fuel into it.... is he running any gauges? how about any trans mods? that trans is not gonna hold up worth crap to that much hp... he needs to start saving for a fully built trans sometime very soon too....

[Strokethis9]

yeah he has gauges as far as tranny he has a stock tranny with a bullydog shift kit or something like that....what about the wastegate should he pull it off or leave it on cause he seems to think pull it off i told him i didnt think it mattered

he might get a few more pounds of boost but its not gonna awakin his trucks performance he needs to get the ts chip reburned with tony wildman or go to a dp either way he jus needs custom tunes

it wont matter

just tell him to stop trying to do small stuff like that and just get a DP or TW chip that is custom tuned to those mods.. make sure he tells them about the BD shift kit too so it gets tuned to that.....

but seriously... with the power hes gonna be making he should start saving up for a fully built BTS or JW trans that is gonna be in the 5k+ range
