It also doesn't fit like the instaructions say, buy the time everything is attached, every harness is fairly tight. I may have to disconnect everything and see if there is a different way of arranging the harnesses but after fighting the small bottom plug I just wanted to get it in. I ran it a little bit, truck seem to make more power but I'm not sure if the tranny new what to do with it.... Does anyone know if UNICHIP changed the shift points in the flash or is it just shifting different with the extra power. Also, should I have told them that I have larger/ heavy mud tires on my truck and not to change the shiftpoints any?

Gonna see if the wife will drag with me in the 08 Crewmax and see a difference that way, also I'm pulling my 9k 5th wheel tonight and will be able to feel the extra torque and hopefully see a couple MPG's increase.

Just talked to Unichip, no trany changes... so I guess the feel is more power and the trany acting differently. I'll report back on the rest of the stuff after the long weekend.
