programmer confusion

I had this posted in general diesel, but thought it might be receive better input here.

Father in law just bought 06 f250 diesel. He had a 01 f250 7.3 diesel, he had the Hypertech III in the 01 for four years and no complaints. He wants one for the 06. Should he stay with a new Hypertech, or are the other brands out now better. Also which level or model of the brands should he consider. He will be leaving the rest of truck stock. Flip a quarter and pick one? Thanks

Hey rodas13,

I have a 06 Ford F350 CC powerstroke. About a month after i bought my truck, I meet a guy who deals strictly with diesel trucks. Its a company called Advanced Diesel Specialist. He knew alot, i ment he knew everything about diesel trucks. He recommended me the Predator stage 2 module made by D.r. Preformance with a AFE intake. After installing the equipment myself, I took it for a test drive and i was SMOKEN MYTIRES FOR DAYS...... Not a understatment. It's also safe. Undetectable by factory. Easy installation. Great results.

I had one issue with my check engine light turning on. Its not a big issue but im in the process of finding out why.

Did you tell the factory you put a chip into your truck?
