Long week but well worth it

It has been a very long week of installing all the mods that I bought from Dale at Tymar and what a huge difference they made.
Monday I installed the Tru-cool 4590 to keep the tranny temps down while towing my trailer.
Tuesday and Wednesday was spent installing the 3 gauge pillar with tranny temp, pyro and boost.
Thursday I installed the TS 4 position chip. Got stock TDE1, tow, race & extreme.
Friday I spent playing around with the chip and noticed a difference but not as radical as I thought it would be.
Today I just got done installing the diamond eye exhaust 4.0" exhaust system. That was a pain to get old system out and to get the new to clear my rear mud flap and spare tire. Once done I let my friend, who was helping out, take it for the test drive. He came back and said that it was nice and felt pretty strong. This guy is the main Powerstroke mechanic at work so I figured he would be a good unbiased opinion. After hearing this I thought well I had hoped he would have said that was awesome. Than I remembered the chip was in the stock position. Reached in and put it to race and told him to test again. He took off and all I heard was tires spinning and turbo spooling up [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smokin.gif[/img] He pulled back up with a huge grin on his face and said that is awesome, man what a difference.
Unfortunantely it started to rain and I cannot even get on the throttle without the tires spinning.
Suppose to dry out tomorrow and than I can take it out and see what she does.
The turbo and exhaust sound great.
Thanks to Dale Isley and the people here who recommended him.

Re: Long week but well worth it

Fourhatz,
Glad you got her done. I'm gonna have to take her for a test drive and campare it to my truck. I have a feeling the chip makes all the difference in the world. It's time for me to let loose and buy a real chip. Talk to you later. Al
