Bean's stuff on the way!!!

[apextrans]

Just ordered Stage 1 Single shots & A 6 position chip. Truck ran so bad last nite on the way home from the yard where I keep the carhauler even after letting it warm up for 15 minutes. It seemed liked it was taking longer to get the 2 bad injectors to come to life lately, so I figured I better get them out before they quit completely. Gonna do glow plugs at the same time while the covers are off. Anything I need to have on hand for this install or need to know prior to starting?

This will be the most expensive mod I do so it's all downhill from here. I plan to add the return kit, homemade intake,& exhaust. I wanna diconnect the wastegate too. Chriss @ Beans said I would be ok for the time being without intake & exhaust & the injectors & chip would put about 350hp to the wheels. Does that sound right?

You mean lb/ft of torque, not hp....oh never mind you are not a besement dweller any more!

I'd have an extra under valve cover harness on hand. Odds are one of the two will need replaced. I'll be doing the same upgrades as soon as funds allow. Lets us know how it runs.

Definatly spring the few extra $ for the UVC harness and VC.....being intercooled just adds more PITA factor if you need to go back in

Might wanna get a Fumoto valve too

I looked in the part number list in the tech section here & everything says 94-97. Are those parts the same thru 2003? Ball park price on said parts?

Also, is it better to vacuum/suck the oil out of the cylinders once I pull the injectors or will just turning the motor over by hand get enough of the drained oil out?

94-97 appears to be different from the 99+

I pulled the IDM fuse and just cranked it over with no GP's in the hole.... that evacuated alla the oil in a hurry.

IIRC you have the 4R100? If so, consider doing some tranny mods.

Scott....YUP! whut he said

OR....just leave the key out of the picture all together and use a jumper wire between the large post--batt + and the key signal wire small post on the fender mount starter relay

I would lay rags over the holes tho......


BTW....the valve covers are diff for the stooper doopys.....they only use 1 large plug directly in center as opposed to the early PSD's using 2 per side.

Price is pretty close either way.

Tranny service is highly recommended...even as far as looking into a converter lock mod so it stays locked when you back off the loud pedal....saves converter cycling that can waste the front pump

That's what I have, 4r100. I know you mentioned a specific tranny mod before. What was it again? Just talked to the wifey and no package yet. Hopefully the stuff will be there when I get home. Supposed to be in the 70's this weekend. That would be awesome if I could get this done without freezing my **** off.

For the 4R100 I would recommend the Sonnax kit, its simple, cheap and easy. If not the Sonnax then I would go with either a Trans-go kit for the valve body or a FTVB. The FTVB is a little more expensive but its so easy a cave man could do it. Unbolt the stock valve body and bolt in the FTVB. The transgo kit is good, but its a little more invovled especially if you do the pump mod. I have the Transgo Tugger which involved the pump mod, but I also put in an upgraded TC so I had to drop the tranny anyway.
