Only on the 03s, it can and does/for everyone else

Seriously?.....
I have talked to a bunch of tuners including Diablo (which takes a bit of doing) and I guess I have always stated "I have a 03" and have been told by all "No, DSP will not adjust rev or speed limiter". Never gave it a thought that they were talking only about the 03. This explains a lot. Now, I wonder how many people I have told that the DSP couldn't set their speed and rev limiters? More than a few... lol I am better off not talking to folks outside my clan. So when you newer guys race our 03's we should be given something like 2 or 3 car lenghts to make up for our handicap?? :Wedgie:

stack diablo with superchips

I have a DSP and when I use the Quick Tune it causes a ABS warning to come on. After two trips to the dealer to reset it I won't load it in my truck again. Diablo folks are no help and the dealer can't reflash my PCM because they say the DSP locked it up. Diablo says "no way". My new SC3865 won't load because it says the PCM has a old version installed and needs a update. The current plan is when I get back stateside is to take the truck to another dealer and try to have them reflash the PCM. If that fails I'll install a new PCM with a current version installed. I want to do some cam and head work and would like to use a SC/SMT6 combo. Anyone with a 03 try this particular setup?
