The chip off the shelf is awesome and superior over tuners as far as performance goes. When you start getting your own shift points and other parameters burnt that you specify, then you have a custom chip.
To clarify to those that do not have a DP Tuner chip:
I meant in my statement that Jody's dealers do not have the capability to customize in the field, not that he's the only tuner that can provide custom tunes.
Are we clear?

I am clear on what I have. I have a DP chip that does not have Jody's tunes. I don't know what you mean, but DP's chips can be reburnt with different tunes by different folks. Maby "his" dealers can't do it, but it can be done.
Do you see what I am saying???

My pedal is kind of touchy. On the very low end it is normal, but just a little off idle. It will spin the tires if not careful. I am use to working the pedal in order to keep from getting attention at red-lights. This is only in the Race and Extreme tunes. The other three does not do this.

Over on TDS, there is a thread that states that there it a 80hp regular tune as well as a 80hp economy tune. The reg. tune is about 100* lower on egt's. I guess you must have to call Jody directly to get that one. But then, that is the good part, you can have Jody tune for your needs.

My Bully Dog programming was touchy on the higher settings. The DP Tuning is not. I have the 4 pos switch with 1400rpm idle, 40 Tow, 80 Econo, and 100 Perf. My HPOP doesn't have enough juice to drive on 100 so I drive around town on 40 and hit the 80 as I get on the freeway. Now I just need big oil... Please Santa, bring me a $2k HPOP.

Thanks.

I chose to keep mine under 100 hp because I knew if I didn't, I would be headed to BTS long before I had too.
