Chip = bad

Programmer = better

Programmer with custom tunes = best

Mike Butler @ 5 Star Tuning is a great option. He's a site sponsor here. SCT products custom tuned to your truck. Customer service is outstanding.

The other option is Power Hungery Performance, but IIRC they still haven't addressed the transmission with their tunes. These are Edge products coverted to PHP's "Gryphon"

Hard to beat either. Plan on spending $400-$600 depending on what your needs are, and what programmer you want (plug & play and remove, or dash mounted)

I use 5 star (Mike) and couldn't be happier. The customer service is awesome.

Can't speak to the other one.
