Chip Recommendations

I have a 2000 F350 Lariat Crew-Cab 4X4 Automatic 3:73. I love the truck but would definitely like to see a little more power especially when towing. I currently tow a 28ft enclosed race car trailer. I estimate the total trailer weight to be about 11,000lbs fully loaded with car, tools, equipment etc. What chip would any of you recommend? I have been seriously considering the Superchip but I know they have many different levels of chip. My main concern is what effect will the chip have on exhaust temperatures? Thank you for all replys and welcome any additional information you may have to offer.

Thanks,
Chris

Cris: The brand is strictly up to you. Superchip recommends using their 50hp chip towing a load that heavy. Diablo has a chip program written specially for towing. It also is a 50hp program with the shift points moved and the torque curve moved for towing. We have seen very safe egt's with the Diablo Towing program, with any size load.
Thanks
Danny
