Performance advise needed

I have a 2003 F350 V10. I recently installed a new motor top to bottom, 3,000 miles on new motor. I would next like to install a performance chip, for performance reasons of course, fuel economy as well. However I dont know what type or brand I should go with. Any advise?

This is a common question...
5 Star Tuning | Custom Dynomemeter Chassis Tuning Products and Services
is the answer.
Not a chip, but a programmer... you have your choice between the X3 and the LiveWire. MOst people advocate the X3... I havent made up my mind which Im going for...

Many people here swear by 5 Star... I will soon too. There is a group buy on the X3... see this thread:

And, it's not just a tuner. It's a code-reader, data logger, and the custom tunes made by Mike are much better than anything else on the market, according to people who've tried others.
