Alright boys...I have a question. I have a 1997 F250 7.3 liter PSD. When I got it, it already had a power enhance chip in it. It was just plugged into the power port under the dash (behind the emergency brake) on the left side of the dash. It was just plugged in there. I don't see a label on it, but there is a small sticker on it that has the following lettering..."4X BANKS14". The guy told me it was a 50 hp chip. Before I installed the Edge Evolution (60/80/100 hp), they told me to take it out. I did, and all is well...but I wonder, since they provide their respective enhancements in very different ways, is it safe to plug the 2 in together? Has anyone ever had experience doing this? I'd love to place it there and see what impact it may have on performance, but don't want to completely wreck my mother board. Thanks in advance! <font color="blue"> </font>

No I dont believe you can do it safely on the 94 to 97s. That port you mention, Is it behind the e-brake towards the outside of the truck? if so that is the Computer, Not a Power Port.

You are correct, it is the computer. I had to take the dern e-brake completely out to get to it. Then I just slid out this "chip" . Best bet is to leave it out and sell it, I guess. I love the Evolution, but wish you could scroll back and forth faster between hp settings. Thanks for the info. Judging from your truck's credentials---you would know! I'll go with that. Again, thanks, RSP.

You can't stack a tuner and a chip period. they both overide the stock pcm code, and one will overide the other if they are both on there.
