    If anyone would like to have some programming done on their 99+ GM trucks (5.3L, 6.0L, and 8.1L) I will be up @ Straightline Specialties from 10:00 to 3:00 or so on Friday Mar 18- doing a few trucks and would like to possibly do more. This will be performance programming similar to a hypertech or superchips programmer, but I can usually get better results. I can also get rid of speed limiters and change tire sizes so the speedo is corrected. Mileage claims are non-existent (better or worse)
    Charge will be $275 this time only, as I normally charge $350.
    Approx gains as follows (honest, dyno proven):
    5.3L- 12-15 HP and 15 Tq
    6.0L (suburbans and H2) - 15-18 HP and 20 Tq
    6.0L (HD pickups and heavy half)- 25 HP and 25 + tq- the guys with HDs benefit quite a bit as your trucks never even get WOT strategy.
    8.1L - 30-35 HP and 40 Tq- 8.1 guys reap same benefits as HD guys
    There is no programmer to buy, this is all done via my laptop. I will NOT have the dyno in town, but I have programmed alot of these trucks and have found results as above typical.
    I will also bring diesel performance parts if anyone is interested- I'll give you a screamin' deal
    please call or email with q's or to schedule appointments.

          Andy, what is available for a 2004 Ford F150 as far as tuning? My dad is looking to extract a bit more HP and TQ from his truck and, if possible, have a seperate setting for economy driving.

                  wow- I haven't visited in a while-
                  2FNLoud- Yes, it is the same program (LS1Edit) used by nelson, etc. I can do it for you on site rather than sending in your PCM

                  Tjamz- The programmers by diablo for the '04+ 3v trucks work quite well, as far as power is concerned. The electronic throttle really limits the power in some spots in the powerband. As far as mileage is concerned, I have heard both sides + and -, but most that tow go + 1 mpg or two, but others say they lose one or two. It all depends on the driver.

                  MY NOVa- I can custom program you a chip for the F150.
