No problems with the six gun. Just not enough power for the cost. Check out Jody at DP tuner.

Banks is a good unit to use for power levels on the fly but does not address the transmission as it should. SCT has the programming for the trans and power.

I had good luck w/ my Banks stinger plus on my 96 7.3L, but LIPD w/ an SCT is the way to go on a 6.0L. banks does not control the trans on the TQ shift and most other tuners do not as well. call matt and jeremy at long island performance diesel, they will custom tune your truck through email and taylor the tunes to fit your needs, mileage and driving habits.
best thing w/ custom tuning is that when you change to another exhaust,injectors,HPOP, or what ever they can alter the tunes to fit your new parts. not so w/ chips and inline PCM foolers. PM me for their direct phone #'s.
