    I�ve had it installed for about a month now and my transmission started slipping and missing shifts, not sure if it�s because of the hydra or something else. I haven�t had any transmission issues prior to installation and it is a new beefed up trans. It was great until it wasn�t lol
    Good chip bad shifting

    I�ve ran this chip in my 7.3 for about 4 months now and I have to say I love the responsiveness and power. Only thing with this chip is I have not had good shifting with it at all. Easing around it�s great but when you get on it it shifts really rough and often slips. Contacted PHP which was no help which was aggravating. Other than that really solid chip.

    Product seems great, it certainly wants to wake my truck up as I heard from many other reviews. However I cannot seem to utilize it because my egt gets to 1250* if I'm more than 1/3 to 1/2 throttle at best for anything more than a couple seconds. I live at high elevation and am using the truck to tow less than 6k (99 350) the grades are steep and I'd like to be able to do speed limit up them. I think once I do some more to the truck and get the egt down this will be the game changer everyone says it is, and I do really like the versatility. But for now its just making me feel like I need more stuff just to use it. Maybe I need some other non canned tunes too, someone told me the php tunes run hot up here and their custom tune dropped their egt 200*. For reference I was pulling a hill on the interstate at 45 in second (auto trans) well over 2200 rpm to maintain 1050-1150* I feel like I live in about the harshest towing area you can though so I can't expect the same results as other mostly stock users at lower flatter areas with straiter roads. Mostly just used 40up tow, and bumped to 25. Yes yes up to the 65 or 80 empty but same issue with high get and lots of black smoke when getting deeper in the pedal. Don't think we ever managed wot.
    Ok

    Took off my edge evolution and threw this on. My truck ran the same as with the edge and I actually had bad shifting with it. Shifting too early and very soft shifts. Communicated with php and verified my hex codes and all that and no helping the situation so I took it off.
