Got My DP Tuner Installed!!!
Just have to say WOW!!!! I have had a superchip forever and was just too cheap to put a real tuner in. The difference is amazing! Got everything put together just in time for a big road trip back east with the TT in tow.

Congrats! What tunes did you get? I am loving my F6, the pulling season starts this weekend so in preparation to tow the pulling tractor I ordered the 60t this week and within a couple hours I had an email with my new tune. I was very happy.

I have 60 tow, 80 econ, 120 and 140 decel and drive thru. It is a used chip I got from a friend who wrecked his 7.3. Just sent it in and had them change it over to my PCM code

F5. I remember my first touch of the throttle in 60e - a real OMG moment. How are your shifts... all good?
Watch out for that decel tune, it will make your brakes feel unappreciated and neglected.

I agree. My truck now shifts like I always wanted it to shift. Shifts are firm now and not too early, and I love how it down shifts when I let up.

Gave my tuner a good workout coming to Iowa, leaving for home today. 475 miles, only towing 5k, running 68-69mph in 40T. Got 15.5mpg hand calculated. Love the DP.

We just got to Niagara falls and I love the was the X is running. I only got 10 to 11 mpg, but I was running 70-75 mph and had a nasty wind through Nebraska. My TT is a 29 ft outback, so the wind has major impacts on mileage.

Just got back from our 4000 mile + vacation to the east coast. The X performed flawlessly and the DP is just awesome. I can't believe I have waited this long to get a custom tuner. The difference in towing is unbelievable. Not just over stock, the difference over the superchip is amazing. I was able to set the cruise on 75 and just let it run up the hills without the EGT's going too high and rarely lost any speed.
