Ready for a DP!!!

FINALLY, got all my mods done to get the truck prepared for a DP tuner! Since I live in GA, I was thinking I'd just drive to get it installed by the man himself. Anyone from GA done this? How hard is it to get an appt to get it done?

Dont bother to be honest its very easy to do yourself it only takes about a half hour the first time. Dont waste your money on the 60 economy tune get the 80e for hwy and city. I got the 60 economy tune and I get worse mileage outta that on the hwy than I do the 80e.

Its a long wait, getting your ducks (mods) in a row the day is here, you'll be thrilled. If I was that close I'd get custom tuned....
