    So va-jj is person... and not a vagina? and are you being serious about the trip to MPD? I also think I should be let in on who this va-jj guy is, seeing how ive been horribly mistaken for what seems to be a pretty famous douche haha.

    Why does my truck "Roll Coal"...

    Thanks swinky, I emailed IDP yesterday to ask if they do look-overs and/or dyno tunes and they dont so ill give Maryland Performance Diesel a shot. They are only 30mins or so from where im stationed at so hopefully they have what im looking for. As for the rest of my questions or concerns, i...

    Why does my truck "Roll Coal"...

    From memory based on my training on automatic transmissions 7 years ago or so, all i know about them is they use planetary gears, shifting is based on hydraulic pressure, and they are a pain in the butt to work on. So again, im not to sure why you would have to tune to the transmission or what...

    Why does my truck "Roll Coal"...

    I serious here, my back ground with automobiles is gas and cars, more specifically Imports and drifting. I went to UTI in Exton, PA back in 08 but ignorantly opted out of the Ford Fact program and their diesel program like a idiot. Now I bought this 03 F250 in hopes to tow my car to the track...

Also, my experience with automatic transmissions is almost zero. Usually my interactions with them involve replacing...

    Why does my truck "Roll Coal"...

    Its a full on cloud and it took off a lot faster than i expected. I was also wondering that too about the Quad but the guy i bought it from was using it for monitoring only. I guess quadzilla is out of business? I wanted to call them to get some input on it because when i press the buttons on...

    Why does my truck "Roll Coal"...

    That sucks that you cant eyeball them to tell, what about scanning? I think I read something about pulse width in regards to injectors somewhere on here... Do you think bigger injectors would have a different pulse width reading than stock? I think this fancy-shmancy bluetooth OBDII reader that...

    Why does my truck "Roll Coal"...

    That makes sense, i just couldn't find any concrete effects of bigger injectors or what to look for so I appreciate the help. I am definitely gonna upgrade to the SCT Livewire do to all the positive reviews and I kind of want to have it dyno tuned as well. I currently live in Maryland and...

    Why does my truck "Roll Coal"...

    Hello everyone!! I am diaper-wearing new to this thing called "diesel" and all things associated with it. Naturally I have a lot of question but im going to try to keep it as Powerstroke oriented as I can but please keep in mind that my knowledge on the subject is severely lacking. Less than a...
