Let me see if I can sum it up. Many have run tunes and chips. Many have sold tunes and chips. I have never heard of someone selling their DP because it didn't perform. The only thing that may happen is a reflash for mods or custom tuning.

So do it right the first time, or pay for two like I did because I couldn't listen. You have the chance to do it right the first time.

BTW, the biggest bang for the buck is a 18k mod DIY for less than $10 bucks but that does nothing for the tranny program.

i got a ts 6 pos for 270 and i love the performance, i have a manual so i didnt have to worry about the shifting. i would have loved a dp, but for the money i think the ts works great for me. the 50hp setting is great for everyday driving, and the 140 is great for power!

Hey, I had a TS before my DP. Good chip. I still have my DP though. Nothing wrong with the TS. I like the DP better. You don't know what you don't know until you know it.

DP-Tuner. I did it right the first time. I bought a programmed PCM to try it out and when I liked it enough, I bought the F5
