Tuners!?

Kinda looking into throwing a tuner on my truck, anyone got any suggestions for any that will give me that extra without causing problems or throwing codes?

Do you have any modifications to your truck?

What are you trying to get out of the truck?

Do you plan on upgrading any systems gradually or all at once?

What is your desired price range?

Hydra is what I would (did) go with too. I got my tunes from swamps.. They're pretty smoky and hot but I don't tow so it doesn't bother me any. On the hwy econ I get 14 mpg.
