Superchips Micro Tuner or Diablo Delta?

I am just starting to look into this... which one would be better for my 00 V10?

Superchips Micro Tuner or Diablo Delta?

More info

it is a 2000 F250, V10, auto, CC, 4x4, short bed, 285 <a href="http://service.bfast.com/bfast/click?bfmid=37919709&siteid=39251846">tires </a>on stock wheels, 4.30 gears

Truck is used as family vehicle, as well as tow rig for my 16' double axle trailer that I use to pull various parts trucks and trail rigs for a combined towed weight (trailer and contents) of generally less than 6500 lbs.

I would like something that give some more "uumph" for interstate towing.
I would *love* increased mpg, but in reality will be happy with no mpg decrease

I looked into this also IMO I liked the <a href="http://www.motorhaven.com/">Diablo</a> chip because of its versatility. The <a href="http://www.motorhaven.com/">Diablo</a> offers a switch that allows you to switch to the standard program and use the 87-89 octane and by flipping the switch you run the perfromance program and get the benifits of the higher octane. The <a href="http://www.motorhaven.com/">Superchip</a> doesn't allow that option you have to run the higher octane all the time. However it does allow you to adjust your transmission shifting to your liking as well as setting some other limits.

Look at both chips on this site for more info.

Thanks for the reply!

I have been looking at both options here on the site trying to decide. I like how the Micro tuner is abe to compensate for gearing and tire size... But the price and gains seem better on the chip...


Decisions, decisions
