    Thanks for the link. I may go. i just took my name off the list b/c i had signed up for Overtime that day but i think i will attend it. Time to hit the mapquest see how long it will take to get up there.

    Since were at chattin would u recommend against stacking edge juice w/attitude with a diablo predator?

    I have heard as long as u have gauges and intake and exhaust u are fine but i have also heard not to do it if u do not have an upgraded turbo or intercooler.......

    The guy also said it would be hard on my injectors but i guess ifthat ends up being the case time to upgrade lol. i am considering doing one of the stealth oil things that lets you mate two pumps together since that is a 7.3s problem from i heard at the top end.

    Look foward to meeting some of you guys. are there any 20 yr olds in this group lol?

    If you are looking at going the route of stacked high pressure oil pumps (aka "Big Oil"), I would strongly suggest looking at the systems from either www.brianstruckshop.com or www.terminatorengineering.com . I personally run the Terminator system and have been extremely happy with the performance as well as the superb customer service. The Terminator system is available through www.blackwidowdiesel.com which is one of our site sponsors. Here's the link: https://www.shop.blackwidowdiesel.co...&categoryId=79

    Yep, the switches are for lights, etc. Right now there're back-up lights, fog lights, HID offroad lights, and one that's not being used yet. I made the panel myself out of some aluminum plate, LED's, switches, etc.

    The knob next to the 4x4 selector is the switch for my DP-Tuner. However, you should note that this is the old style six position switch that is no longer sold by DP (these were made by another company and had lots of problems). The new 16 position switch and chip that DP is making themselves can be viewed at their website www.dp-tuner.com . I will be switching to the new chip and switch when my race engine is finally done.
