I have not tried any PHP tunes yet, but I like the tunes I got from BTS a lot better than what I got from Jody. They are QUIETER, more powerful (my 'stock' X dyno'ed at 324hp
), lower EGT's and better fuel economy - not to mention superior shift strategy. There are more than one ways to make more power with tuning - with regard to timing, ICP, PW, trans tuning, etc. This is a sensitive subject and due to its complexity combined with the proprietary nature of 'custom tuning' - very few people have the facts they need to make comprehensive decisions about what tunes are 'better'. The fact is, the armies of defenders for each tuner have usually only had stock and THAT tuner - they have no way to know what else is out there, unless ya believe everything ya read on the world wide web. 
Trust me, you do ANYTHING over stock and you get a customer with all smiles! Consider how many people thought superchips was great before they got 'custom' tunes??

Not sure what Bill does. I know of 5 or 6 trucks now running BTS tunes who would no longer consider other tuning - most of them had tunes already! I can also say the X made more HP than some of the 'live-tuned' trucks on the dyno.
