Yeah they removed my post, it's okay though. Thanks for the info but i found out it's the 2.1 that they discontinued a while ago, hopefully I can sell it soon, that's getting my girlfriend back to germany with me after this deployment haha

hey i found good quality used parts at www.pullapart.com idk if u ever heard of it but its in birmingham alabama or it could be one close to u i am getting the 5.4 wireharness trans comp ect... for around 280 bucks

i have a 01 4r100 that blew. i got a used one from a 98 and it doesn't have the rear turbine speed sensor it only has the speed sensor on the tail shaft. any idea if it will work if i just leave it unplugged or any suggestions on what to do. thanks dan

Phil,

I sent you buddy an email about my truck to see if he could possibly hook me up with a tune. I want to add some extra power and I think nitrous would definitely give me the best bang for my buck. I have a DSS pro mod motor in my truck and I think it is a decent motor. It has forged internals and should be able to handle a shot of nitrous. I was thinking about adding a larger crankshaft pulley but I can buy nitrous for not that much more money and get a ton more on the performance side. I have the 4.6 litre with the M90 Eaton supercharger and I have a guy here in Tulsa, Oklahoma that can't tune for crap. I'm always getting a lean code and a couple of other codes when I run his tunes. I can say that Troyers tunes have never given me any trouble at all. I just don't trust the guy that is local. I have lost a motor before and I totally refuse to run my truck lean or even take the chance. Motors are too darn expensive to be messing around with.

Thanks,

Brian

Phil,

I talked to Mike Troyer and he isn't too much on running nitrous. Do you get your tuning done by him or someone else? I know I can adujst the timing 4 degrees with my SCT tuner but I guess you still suggest I get a tune for nitrous. Mike told me the tune that I have it very safe tune but he didn't seem too excited about me putting nitrous on my truck. Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Brian

My 1999 Ford F150 is beginning to have an intermittent problem with the PATS transceiver. It left me stranded at the movies last night. It would not start with either key. "Theft" light would NOT go out after 3 seconds in RUN position. This morning I went to it to do more troubleshooting and arrange towing if necessary. The "Theft" light did go out after 3 seconds and it started right up. True for both keys. Puzzling. I do not want to pay for a new PATS transceiver or PCM or whatever. If possible to "disable" PATS, I would prefer that. In a Jan 29, 2010 response you stated "If you have a hand held tuner for your truck,,I know a guy that can email you a tune that will disable the PATS altogether". Can you please email this program update to me.
My email is rdc561@bellsouth.net.
Thanks

yea I know just so much going on man. Hell it was a long time till a few weeks ago before I got back on for truck enthusiasts.

I just got it not to long ago but times are tough so im gonna wait till a better time. I may just part it out so i dont have to start alll over.

Im sellin it cuz I need some money. Im thinkin about gettin a bike or cheap civic so i dont have to fill up everyweek as it is. once I get something and start saving ill jump back on it ASAP! since I wanna do everything, pistons, rods, cams. then i wont have to touch it cuz it will all be done.

hey dude, Im thinkin about takin them pods off your hands. what size guage will they fit? and roughly how much would you want them shipped to 76203?
