Again, thanks for all the input. I don't want to go for the full 100 horses, but an additional 50-60 would be nice when climbing through the mountains. I am also considering the Ford Powerstroke Diesel 7.3 1994-2003 TS Performance 6 Position Chip WITH KNOB 140+ HP, which comes with a six position switch to control how the chip is tuned (and includes a really nice anti-theft option). I am concerned about the transmission, especially the clutch. I'll probably add the additional gauges recommended here (especially the exhaust temp). Living in Las Vegas, I don't want to deal with high exhaust temps when pulling in the 110 degree heat of a typical July afternoon. I really appreciate all the great information for me to consider!
The TS is pretty much the chip of choice for the 7.3's if you don't want custom tuning. However, as said before, your transmission may not like the added HP.
