Hello, I bought an edge evolution programer and heard that Bill can program it remotely to make it tune my FICM, I would like to email or talk to some one about this but cant seem to reach any one on emails. I read that bill programs the tunner to have two tunes on it one for Heat inductive tune and the other with out. I was was wondering if Bill can tune one with Heat inductive and the other one with heat inductive with Pilot injection. I would like to be able to switch between the FICM tunning if need be. I was also wondering if the programer will let me keep my stock ficm tunning if I dont like the PHP tunning. If bill can do this for me that would be great. I seen the FICM tunning form and havent filled it out yet, I would like to figure out what bill can do for me before filling it out. Thanks, Justin

First off, it needs to be the monochrome Evolution. Not the CS, CTS, or the older handheld programmer. So, it should look like this:

Converting the Evo to the FICM programmer is kind of a one time deal. After you're finished with the FICM end of the deal, the unit will be reset to stock so you can use it as a performance programmer.
You'll have to pick either the have the inductive heat or not. You also won't be able to switch/revert back to stock. You're going to pay regardless of whether you like it or not, but consider this.... I've never really seen any advertisement for PHP other than webforum sponsorships, and there is a HUGE wait for the FICM programmers. Something has to be working. They are getting constant customers for their FICM programming and it is likely all from word of mouth. Even if your pickup's response isn't real noticable, its a chance I'd be willing to make.
About the question on pilot injection, you're going to have to ask directly at the source there. Best bet would be to call and talk to Bill. They were(and still might be) having phone issues so it might be hard to get a hold of them.

thats the programer that I got, That kinda sucks about not being able to switch back and forth with the FICM tunning.

The PI is in the pcm, not the ficm. So you can request it in a perfromance program either from Bill or any SCT dealer. But I have to ask why? The 6.0 injectors did not respond well to the orgional PI the 03's had.

I would like the PI so that my truck would be a little bit quieter so I dont have to turn it off when going through the drive through at the bank or getting fast food. I got an oil bypass system on my tuck and I think that the reason that PI didn't work out so great is that the Oil wasn't as clean as it could be and thats the reason the injectors keep craping out.
