Some trucks, depending on tolerances, may be able to utilize up to 80 HP and 120 HP respectively, but we cannot guarantee that the power gains will be achieved.1994-1997 TRUCKS WILL HAVE FEWER CALIBRATION SELECTIONS DUE TO THE POWER LIMITATIONS OF THE FACTORY STOCK INJECTORS. ADDITIONALLY, TRUCKS WITH MANUAL TRANSMISSIONS WILL HAVE FEWER CALIBRATION SELECTIONS DUE TO THE PROGRAMMING CHANGES THAT ARE MADE TO SHIFTING BETWEEN TOW AND POWER CALIBRATIONS.ALL 7.3L PSDs WILL HAVE A MINIMUM OF 15 CALIBRATIONS AVAILABLE.DUE TO THE LIMITATIONS OF INTERNATIONAL VEHICLES, ONLY 7-10 CALIBRATIONS WILL BE AVAILABLEStock or Modified StockUseful for emissions or diagnostic purposes25hp Extremely Heavy Tow12,500+ pounds40hp Heavy Tow10,000 -12,500 pounds65hp Moderate Tow7,500 - 10,000 pounds80hp Light TowUp to 7,500 pounds65hp Daily DriverGood for all-around daily driving and economy80hp Daily Driver65hp PerformanceA little more aggressive than a Daily Driver while stillmaintaining manageable smoke output80hp Performance100hp Performance*100hp Race*Play time!

Early 1999 can go up to 100HP. Late 2001 to 2003 PSDs can not order the 140X tune because they have Powdered Metal Rods. All Hydra Chips will ship blank, unless specified. If you’d like the calibrations pre-loaded, please include PCM / DPC Code.
