Best Programmer and Chip Combo?
I have and 2000 F350. I need advice on the best chips and programmers on the market. I need know what companies to work with and not to work with. I want HP without buring up the tranny. I will be putting gauges, 6637 air filter mod, and 5in exhaust on the truck. I am looking to gain 50 to 150 hp.

I'll say before everyone else does. Go with the Jody Tipton flip chip. It is supposed to be the best. I am saving my money for one right now.
You may also want to do the AIH delete and the HPX line. My $.02

I don't see the issue with the AIH delete. It operates when the engine is running and the ambient temp is below 32 and the oil is below 55 and the tranny is in park with the glow plugs off. What that means is that you start the truck and leave it in idle and it is cold out there and the GPs have cycled off. Well, most times when I take start it, I take off soon after gently. That is why I used it as a boost gauge tap.

Go to www.dp-tuner.com. That's Jody's website. Also, no matter what you do, some tranny upgrades are suggested. The stock engine can destroy a tranny without any mods. A BTS valve body would be good for the trans.

Not too much info on the site, give him a call with questions. He will recommend a BTS valve body for the transmission, it allows him to use a different shift program. Definitely worth the $225 for the BTS, shifting and TC lock up are MUCH improved. Get one of Jody's chips, you won't be dissapointed. They have very good power and still keep EGT's in check.
edit: JT, ya beat me to it! I need to improve my typing skills!
