Got beat
Ok I have a 2004 f250 with an 03 turbo and head studs with a sct x3 with a custom tune from power stoke magic out of katy...... I just ran a 03 duramax with a hp tuner on it. I did a 4 wheel launch and got the jump but after 60 he passed me.... I'm wondering if I can get a better tune for my truck and by who.....

I dunno, I ran a Duramax stacked PPE Hot, Full transmission rebuild, lift pump and injectors....still smoked him. Eric at Innovative is probably your best source.
Not all Duramax's are fast

It may not be as much of an exaggeration as you might think. I know the 5.9 that I had was ~2k lighter then the truck that the 6.0 sits in now.

sorry to say, but to compare apples to apples (as in chevy with just a tune, and ford with just a tune) the chevy is a faster truck. You won't get there with tunning alone. I would recomend going with innovative tunes though.
