tuner input needed

so I am looking for a tuner for my 6.4

criteria is

1) be able to back up my existing stock tune. this is different than being able to load a stock tune. I have a feeling the stock tunes in tuners are original 2008 tunes and there have been some firmware upgrades which exist in my 2010 tune. so I want to be able to back up my existing tune.

2.) be able to turn off all DPF functions. I go off roading thru the forest of NYC and do not want to cause a forest fire due to the truck going into regen while I am off roading....so I want to be able to turn it off as needed.

3) I dont want a tuner that if the planets and stars are not in the correct alignment...your engine gets bricked and you need dealer involvement to unbrick.

any input would be appreciated

thats it.

You can't just turn off the DPF. Shutting it off and using a tuner quickly leads to a plugged DPF. If you can't get rid of it leave the DPF and its tuning alone.

yes, it gets removed right before off road use.
