You can pick and choose what position you want any of the tunes in as well. I have the gauge mount switch, mounts in the very top of my 4 gauge pillar and looks pretty sharp. Jody tunes some of the highest HP trucks in the country, you'll get exceptional customer service (although they get pretty busy some times).Īnd it should put the bully dog to shame. They also just came out with the new F-6 chip(the F-5 being the previous and what I have) which is the only email up-datable switch on the fly chip for the 7.3 available on the market today. If you don't like how one tune is shifting, spools the turbo, etc, etc, just tell him and he can work with you. Jody can really tune your truck to do exactly what you want all you have to do is ask, or all his tunes that he has created work great too. The 7.3 may sound like a diesel but she's a sweet engine and reliable as well.My DP tuner ran me about 600 because I got quiet a few tunes, the price will increase with the more tunes you get. Hell just driving around town I get between 21 to 21.5mpg. So my feelings are the 7.3 which has a longer stroke gives it that low end torque that doesn't need the turbo to produce. And as well all know if you're making boost it needs more fuel.

Now my driving style helps as well as I hardly ever see the boost gauge move and that's because with the tune this 7.3 has some incredible low end torque and throttle response. I know some of you are going to call bull shit on it but I had a friend along with me on this trip and right when we got into the Dallas area just before the I20 intersection I pulled over to fill up and he too couldn't believe how well this truck did. Traveling from Houston to Dallas on I45 which for the local folks know is very flat the whole way, had the wind in my tale I was able to get 28.4 mpg at 75 to 77mph. I put a gearvendors overdrive right behind the transverse case and with the 4:10s in the rear at 80mph my 7.3 is just under 2k rpms. I have a low mileage 70k miles 02 F350 4x4 DRW. While that's a very good hwy mileage it can be better.
