    Apten chip - switch position vs program

    I have an apten chip in my truck - my question is to those of you that have a dual program chip. I have a 91 perf program and an 87 perf program. When the led is on which program is represented by green? I thought it was the 91 perf prog. Thanks. :)

    Does your front end lock up in the rain?

    I have been having a problem with my front end locking up. It does it from just about any speed over 10mph - most noticeable when going downhill. I put Toyo open country at tires on last year, new brakes all the way around last weekend. Does anybody else have this problem? Every time it rains...

    I finally got around to installing the chip. :cool: I found that the tranny shifts very hard under WOT. I already have a transgo shift kit - is the apten programming overkill? Will it hurt the tranny?

    Anyone using the Catz 9007 HID kit?

    I am ready to look into the catz 9007 setup. I am leary of doing this because of the lousy quality of our headlight housings. I don't want to spend the $$$ and not be able to see in fog - I also dont want to blind every other driver.

    H.I.D. Color temp - is there a difference

    I am considering getting the true HID conversion. My question is about the different color temps. Is ther a difference in light quality/ better visibility with the higher temps? Is it more of a cosmetic difference?

    Driving lights- Hella vs PIAA - Sorry Dial-ups!!

    I have a pair of PIAA 60XT Pro driving lights. I like the reach of the lights, but not the beam pattern. I need more side lighting without adding another set of lights. Does PIAA make any driving lights ( large size - relative to what I have) in more of a euro beam? Is my only choice a Hella...
