When I installed this, their directions weren't totally clear to a beginner and you need to re-pin two of the E40D connections for the Baumann. The Bauman is a small computer you install in the truck and it receives a signal from the PCM and sends a signal to the transmission, acting as the middle man. The Baumann TCS is sort of a pain to install. And the reason it is included in their kit is because you don't have the necessary tools (or knowledge) to program the proper MAF curve in the PCM to do away with the calibration tube. This tube is needed to send a signal to the PCM fooling it into thinking you are using the MASS Air sensor in a stock sized housing or with stock injectors. As it turns out, it is because of the calibration tube. When I am 100% done with the install, the truck won't start.
I start by going through all the steps precisely, in order, checking my work along the way.
