What chips or programs are people using?

Looking to get some sort of chip, any help would be great. I've got a 2001 Excursion and a 2003 F350. I was looking at the Diablo Predator and was wondering can that flash both trucks or do you need two seperate units?

Thanks

1 at a time. What the unit will do is upload your stock program into the predator and then download the new program to the truck. It will not reprogram another truck after that, until the original truck is programmed back to stock.
So you would need 2 units to program both trucks, or just reprogram each time you drive one.

What's important to you:

1. Most power
2. Most flexibility
3. Best diagnostics
4. Web updates
5. Price

Thumbs up Edge tuner fan

hey im pretty new. first post... I think. but I have a 1997 f150 4x4 , but its only the 4.6. I bought the edge programer about 4 months ago and I couldnt be happier with it. it cost just under 400 but it was worth every peny. in stock mode I was getting 9 or 10mpg, and that was on a down hill run with the wind to my back, but with the programer im getting 14 and 15 and theres a marked exceleration improvement; off the line and at about 50 to 60 mph. with 131000 miles and 33's she can still move!!
