140hp Extreme on PMR's

edge186 · #1 Wed, February 17th, 2010, 12:26 AM

I was under the impression that the 140 Extreme was not available for trucks with PMR's? I am not positive but according to the production number on the engine of my 01 , I have PMR's. However, the 140 Extreme is available in the list of tunes I can choose from when reburning?

Any Idea?

I have heard that there have been a few 01's with forged rods. Thats what I was counting on when I got mine but no such luck.

Yeah some of the earlier 01's are supposed to. my engine build date is november of 2000 so i had my hopes up but according to the serial number it has PMR's. I won't know for sure until i can figure out how to look in the inspection port.

but my question is, i thought the 140 Extreme wasn't available to trucks with PMR's? Im pretty sure i have them but the 140 Extreme is still available when i burn my chip. Why is this?

Oversight on Bill's part.

I want to say that he basically uses a "copy and paste" method from his folders for each PCM code and puts whatever he selects into your own personal folder for you to download and burn.

I could be way off, but I certainly wouldn't sweat it being there. Whether or not I'd actually USE it

. It's not like you're actually going to get 140 HP out of it with stock injectors and oil, but it will be more aggressive than 120.

i would like to try it but i don't even dare touch the 120 on my stock tranny for fear that i'll break something.

As long as you're easy on it during the shifts, you should be ok.

i have a dp tuner and a bts valve body and leave it on the 140 tune most of the time and my tranny is holding up fine.
