Which tuner/module to get

I have a 2003 Ex with the 6.0 psd. I am looking at getting a tuner or module upgrade for it. I have been looking at the Superchip and the Edge Juice with the attitude. Can any of you guys give me your thoughts on which way to go?

i bought the Predator, but if you do a search on the forum, you can find a lot of good info.

Anyway, welcome to the forum.

I have the Edge/Attitude... I love it...it has digital display of EGT, RPM, boost and backdown, 6 position adjust on the fly, low boost fueling, records max EGT, RPM, boost, audible alerts for EGT and automatic backdown when set limit is reached, etc.

I don't have access to a dyno or 1/4 mile track but my butt gets planted in the seat a whole lot harder than stock AND I can keep track of whats going on with the above mentioned parameters.....the single best upgrade I've done to the truck!....worth every penny!!

Ditto

It makes more power than any of the others that I am aware of or have ridden in...

The shifting still isn't great (I hate the defueled shifting with a passion) but my SCMT took care of that.

Check the version on the sticker on your attitude. If it is not 1.63, that is why your shifting is bad and you can upgrade your attitude to 1.63 by sending it to edge. email them. You can find the email contact at www.edgeproducts.com.

How does the edge get the EGT. I did not think the truck came stock with a sensor at the manifold. Is it downstream somewhere? I too am thinking about plug in HP. Just looking to decide what to buy.

You will find that the Predator has more features including downloadable updates from Diablosport.com. My truck made 387 HP and 728 Ft lbs of torque at the wheels. The dyno sheet is on my gellery. jdadamsjr has similar numbers. So far no one has shown dyno numbers that can beat them. Super Chips has been fiddling around for months trying to beat it.

Others claim numbers but we havn't seen them on a customer's stock truck like ours.
