ahhh yesss these type of guys....
I know where your coming from... I have DPs 140aggressive/smoke tune... I don't use it much but when there's some a55hole who can't drive who pulls out infront of an 8000 pound lifted tank/truck because... They don't see it!!! They can eat my smoke till they choke, I don't know how many times I've had to swerve or stand on the brakes because of ignorant people...
Sorry... give'em a break... The video pretty much wraps up what and how we all feel about everyone else

Even aggressive tunes don't have to smoke.
I passed Colorado emissions testing with a tune that made over 300 hp on stock injectors and a stock HPOP, which is identical to full blown race tunes on the market today.
Limit the fuel down low, and make power where it counts. Smoke can be significantly reduced that way without sacrificing power when you need it.
Smoke does not equal power. Smoke only means that the tuning isn't dialed in properly to ramp the fueling linear to the accelerator pedal.

All kidding aside keep it off the street and the plastic bag in the parking lot is seriously your best bet.
If your on a budget stay away from any 3rd gen dodges and any duramaxes. They will destroy you unless they can't drive.
Our trucks need lots of money to catch up. Plus we are a lot heavier.

Back in 2008 when those guys got a little nervous about smoke up there in DC all of Jody tunes went under evaluation. This is when Jody started using more adjustments in ICP with his tuning. ICP helps with keeping the smoke down. Guys who complain of a touchier throttle need to understand it is ICP not timing that gives a touchier throttle.
Regardless of the EPA I am thrilled everyone is tuning Diesel's with the environment and our health in mind.

Why you hatin' on PHP, Princess? I have heard all of these horror stories, but have never experienced it first-hand. Every interaction I have had with PHP has been pleasant and timely.

Hatin' would mean I'm not truthful in my statement.
But for what it's worth I'm happy you like your php tunes.

Have you personally dealt with PHP, Jason? I can only speak from personal experience, albeit factual. I CHOOSE to not spread malicious information that I have merely heard or read about on the internet. I tend to believe that's a good rule by which to live.
I'm not hating on them. It's well known they suck at customer service. Not only do they not deliver on time consistently, they lie to customers about delivery.
Hatin' would mean I'm not truthful in my statement.

Noted, Jason. You know I have a lot of respect for you and your opinion. I just thought the timing of your remark was suspect. I choose to never get involved in these tuner pissing matches, I only feel the need to relay my personal experiences.

I have the same respect for you too buddy. I have installed 3 php chips in friend's trucks that don't do the Internet thing. 2 of 3 called me wondering what the hell was going on. They sent there chip in during php vaca month or something. That along with all the people on here and PSA starting rant threads lead me to my views.
But I will also tell people that I've never met a php customer that didn't love his tunes. It's the delivery/ CS that kills.
Gonna see you at RRE again?

Absolutely, and I SINCERELY apologize. You're right about it being the screen name that threw me. That and I'm just generally not good at names, this one was pretty bad though. Especially since Jason is in your signature 
.I'll make it up to you in beer or something at RRE.
