I didnt know either but I learned quickly:

Fass 150 =FASS High Performance Fuel Pump 150gph flow rate
FASS 95 = FASS High Performance Fuel Pump 95gph flow rate
TST= Is a chip that will give you the most power

Here is the link for both the chip and the fuel pumps:LINK

Swiss Cheese box = Is making your own intake air box by drilling about 30 holes on the bottom for cold air feed


Stacked boxes= When you stack combine chips(performance softwares) with other ones having a dual or triple stack

SBC= Is now joined with AT&T is the largest provider of both local and long distance telephone services, wireless service, and DSL internet access in the United States

SBC is south bend clutch
they have a website if you want more info.

Dont worry about bein ignint, we all started somewhere, I wasnt long ago that I didnt know what any of that stuff you listed was either. My best advise is stick to this site and read up, before you know it you will be on here morning noon and night and up to date on all the current diesel happenings.

I want to do a similiar setup.


I want to get a hose or furnace duct from the foglight hole and connect it right to the bottom of the bottom of the box to where the holes are.

When I installed this, I made sure to angle the toward the opening in the grill. Additionally, I have added screen material secured by hose clamp at the top of the tube (not shown in the pictures).

Darn i never saw pics of swiss cheese air box i just took out the drill and hole saw and took out every piece of plastic on everyside of the box below the air filter i could, guess i should have asked some more questions about it before i did it.

well thats how mine got swiss cheesed. but there were not many 3 gens around then. sorry I have no pics(not computer smart enough if I did) but looks like that is pretty much covered. a tdr issue had pics of one with the 4 inch hole and floor fitting for a toilet 4 inch piece of pvc hanging down to suck the cool air with screen over it to keep out critters. cheaper way than what we done(on others trucks) and easier as well. I can assure you I cannot load pics or I would. maybe another subscribing reader will have pics or be able to scan them for you. I am going to do my 06 that way when its here. reason for the better results ,we suspect less turbulence.
