Chip / Tuner for a 95 / 3rd Gen Ranger - Is it possible? Noticeable benefits?
Just looking into making my truck more efficient or powerful.
I am just starting to learn and research chips and tuners more and looking for some knowledge. My uncle got a tuner for his 7.3L turbo diesel and it made a significant difference.
Now I know I wont see any kind of difference like that but I am just curious on if I would see some. Another question I have is if it is even possible on a 95 cause of the OBD and such?
Thanks in advance.
This started my interest.

95 is the year they switched... Some are, some aren't... Mine was obd1... Diesel = turbo... So obviously it's going to make a world of difference... Turbo your 4.0, then tune it and it will make a world of difference too. The jet chip did make a difference... But the $300 he sold it for was worth more than what the chip actually did.

yea, the sct tuner would help him. of course some add ons really help it such as exhaust, intake.
if you decide to take the above advice (turbo the 4.0L) it is cheaper to just swap in a v8. the money you would spend on making the 4.0L hold up to the boost can be done for a lot less with the 302 swap. there are tons of threads on numerous sites about what the v8 swap entails and which donor vehicles would be best for you.
