You will hear the best tuner is the one they have. I have DP-TUNER and I think they are the best. If I had a php tuner, then they would be the best. 
One thing I like about DP-TUNER is they spent the money to be our forums SPONSOR.
I try to suport our SPONSORS of FTE, just like Jody and Clay.

That would be at the top of my "needs" list as well as my "wants" list.

Been reading as time allows. Looks like over $1000 for a chip. Wasn't prepared for that. I need bigger exhausts, intake mods, gauges, might as well look at a new split bench seat. The leather on these buckets are wore out and my wife doesn't like that junk grabber that keeps here ffrom sitting next to me anyway. Might as well replace the carpet and it needs a paint job.
Let's see what's cheaper restoring this truck or buying a new one? Only had to think for second on that one. Plus my '99 looks better than the fugly ones they're stamping out today. Restore & mod it is.

The F5 chip with 4 custom tunes = $320 Riffraff Diesel: DP Tuner F5 Chip Module
Add the switcher with LED color of your choice Riffraff Diesel: EX LED Switcher
...and that's another $40 bucks.
Total cost, $360 bucks.

after riding in Cory's truck at RRE 2011 i there was no looking back
Matt from Gearhead will be tuning every vehicle i own an maintain from now on
I currently have 2 chips on the way to him now
greg from ct is also running his tuning and his truck is very smoooth and surprisingly powerful for a stock stuck
now for the best part when you order a chip from matt you get a ts style 6 pos chip and switcher with 6 tunes for $475 with unlimited lifetime reburns if you ever change setups
matt is also in TX which is very convenient for you

The $1000 was after I went through the DP selection process and ended up with 12 or so separate codes. I realize it's possible to spend around half or even less, for a simpler chip. It's just hard to resist some of those profiles they offer!
But I haven't found that $295 6 code chip from PHP, I'll look at their site closer and see what I find.

My vote is for Tony Wildman.
