Bully Dog

Hey guys,

06 F250 Stroker here, I have posted on this forum a couple of times talking about guages and "chips" or what not. While at an auto-shop a guy with a Ram showed me this Billy Dog tuner. Showed me what it could do. It looks like it would solve my problem of needing extra guages AND doing the high idle mod, among a slew of other things. Anyone have this item? Or any thoughts or opinon on it.

Doesn't the Edge do the same thing? I know Bully Dog is a dirty word/name around here just because of the damage it can & has caused to the engine & tranny.

Ditto zhilton's comments. $159.00 for ScanGauge 2 at AZ. Best tuners if you beleive in them, I don't, SCT.

you got it! thats if you want the livewire. i have the TSX and love it. although i might go to the hand held programmer with a edge insight one of these days because it looks better. the tsx can be hard to read. thats my only complaint about it. if you want the same thing but cooler looking screen get you a sct sf3 with an edge insight. edge insight is 399 and the sf3 you can find pretty cheap. whole set up i think is about 50 bucks more but well worth it being that the livewire is more bulky. also get custom tunes. but if you dont have head studs contact matt he has a tune that is bad *** but made for trucks that dont have studs
