Question what next?

i'm looking for a little more. what to do next? i have listed what is done. plus i put in the 2nd cooler after work.

i was thinking about replacing my superchip with maybe a DP tune.

i drive daily on 100hp and don't get me wrong its ok... but.
what am i looking to spend on the DP and how will it help the tranny?

thanks, John

The DP will def be a step up. You can also do some of the shift kits to help with line pressure in the tranny. I belive you can also get the DP with custom tunes.

He's right. A DP tuner would be a step up. That's what I have on my 2000 PSD and I love it. Also doubles as a scan tool. If you are going to install a shift kit though, or do anything to the tranny that will make it shift harder, I would be carefull about installing a shift tune from the DP if you get one. You can keep the factory shift or you can modify the tune to give you a firm or a hard shift. DP recommends not to modify the shift firmness if you have a shift kit installed. Just my
Mine cost me around $350.

#1 Take that superchips and toss it out the window

#2 Call one of the vendors or other diesel performance shop and get a 6 pos.

(Make sure you get something like an xtreme tune. You'll have a smile a mile wide!)
