I had mine done at the dealer where I bought it last fall, they did not charge me anything. Try and find a friendly dealer... Man, when the 3 cyl idle kicks in, it sounds like a rod is going to come through the head, sure warms up real nice though. Egts go from 300 to 600 in a hurry...

My truck is 2001 and stock, dealer took about 3 minutes to download under the dash. Didn't want anything for it. I bought a box of Tim Horton's donuts for the boys in shop and they happy.

cool thanks for the info guys. My truck takes for ever to warm up. It was 5 degrees outside today. It took about 20 minutes for my truck to warm up.

High idle video
I just uploaded a couple short clips of the high idle kicking on my truck last winter. This is a no plug in 20 below cold start, the truck almost killed when it enabled. This is an 01 5 speed just flashed with a smarty. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qFzMqUxpamc

Look here for what's going on in CO

Join your local chapter and i'm sure one of them have a Smarty for you to load and get the high idle feature. It leaves it behind after it is unloaded.

I may have found someone on craigslist, they think it is locked with one VIN at a time though. Does that apply with just the performance changes, not the "diagnostic tool" type action? Does the other person need have to return their truck to stock to enable mine? Thanks!
