2..Does it cost to reburn? (that means to fit it to my truck?)Yes, although the cost is very affordable. $40/tune I think.
3. Says if you have the Pwr? you cant get 140 hp, will i even see that much actually work? With powdered metal connecting rods, 140 isn't a good idea. However, actually getting 140 HP out of stock injectors isn't really possible.
4. do i have to pay for new tunes? what if he has some of those tunes already If your PCM code requirement does not match what his is, then all the tunes have to be reinstalled for your application.

tunes i was thinkin about:
1. Stock No charge.
2.65 or 85 Daily? I'd go 65.
3. Whisper
4. 80hp
5. 140hp
6. Smoke show

1. Whats the difference in 85 DD and 80 race? Fuel aggressiveness and shift points/firmness.
2. Difference in fuel sipper and DD? Fuel/timing rates around 1800 RPM and stock-like shift points in FS.

3. Instead of having stock and taking up a spot, can i just have like another flip switch that deactivates the whole CHIP, basially making it stock or is that not good? Not possible. You have to pull the chip off the PCM to "turn it off". A "stock" position is a stock calibration. It may not be the same as your PCM's base calibration, but it is a stock calibration for whatever base code Bill uses in your situation.

appreciate all ur replys
Good luck!
