Will Hydra Tuner work with transmission shift kit?

My truck is a 1997 F-250 Automatic. E-fuel, 1.0 housing, 4 inch exhaust, downpipe, Tymar style intake, Soon to be intercooled. RSK, Solid axle swap

For many calibration sets, we offer a "VB" (Valve Body) tune set which eliminates the pressure modifications to the tuning so that it doesn't interfere with the mechanical modifications. If you could let me know what your PCM code is, we can let you know if we already have tunes for that application.

Thanks.

My PCM code is TDE0.

i received my hydra chip this Friday and discovered that there are tunes for modified valve bodies. I installed the chip methodically per the video instruction on hydra help and the chip is working great. Ive only been running the 40 horse DD tune so far because I have an old tired transmission but WOW!! Ive owned my truck for 15 years now and this is the first time its ever been chipped and the first time I ever saw any black smoke come out of the tail pipe. Im impressed! I did notice one thing though...when I press the up or down button on the hydra selector switch it takes a few clicks of the button before it responds. Is this normal.

Chris,

The Hydra switch serves two functions, to change levels and to change LED brightness. In order to manage this, there are certain timing specifications that must be met.

To change position, the button must be pressed for no more than ½ second (quick tap).

To change LED brightness, the button must be pressed and held for about 1½ seconds (long press).

Anywhere in between those two time periods, and nothing will happen.

I hope this is helpful.

Right on. That makes sense. Thanks for the info.
