Hi again,
Thanks for giving me suggestions on what the repair could have been on my older style Cummins '98 Manual 5 speed shifting problem a few postings back. Now that I have the powertrain back in order, I want to put in what this Diesel performance place calls a Performance plate on my injector pump. He suggests that they take the pump out (R & R pump $300.00) then calibrate the pump (calibration 275.00) and then install performance plate ( retails at 295.00). He claims I will get an additional 85 HP. The Cummins motor has never been modified in any way. Can anyone speak from experience in doing this? He says I will get a 25% loss in fuel savings as a result of the modification also but have a guy at work telling me the total opposite, he's saying my fuel consumption would be less as I gain HP. I dunno what to do about this... any thoughts on this?...Thanks...jimi
