I found this. It has a unit for a VT365 up to an 07. Which I think will work, since I believe most 08s are built on 07 chassis.

Let me know if you find any info on this. I am looking at it as well.

This is the one I have decided to go with, a buddy of mine who runs the International 4000 chassis on 3 of his delivery trucks uses their module with great results and no problems so far..

I ordered one for my new Supernova 6400 and I will post my before/after results once I have put a few miles on the new rig.

I want to load it up and get all my weights recorded and then get some kind of baseline for performance and MPG before the chip and then try to get a fair comparison after installing the chip... Won’t be scientific but I’m sure the results will be interesting..

Well, in the absence of a chassis dyno, the best way to measure power gains is on the drag strip. Be sure to get some 1/4 mile timing slips before you do the upgrade

Hmmm... I wonder if they make wrinkle wall dually slicks with a 6500lb weight rating??

Campcook,

Did you get your module installed? If so, how is it working?

I'm interested in knowing about the gains with the chip. Does it void warranty?

Any information on how the TS unit worked with the VT365? I am very much interested.

Thanks.

They do not have a listing in the Medium Duty/RV section for the VT 365. Are you using the one for the 6.0L Fords ?

I have tried this programmer and never seen any gains, just losses. I have been running it for 5000 miles now. To get the 300HP they say the VT365 has they have changed around the pressure on the fuel lines etc, this Workhorse Module does nothing. I am seeing better performance without the programmer. There has to be something else out here. Let me know if you find it!!
