holy cow DP

Well i got the dp chip with stock/80/120race and holy crap is that just cool start in stock and then 80 and then 120 and it cut my 0-60 tim down a crap ton when the tires would hook. and i got 36x13.5 that chip is a god send. people say that they get better mpg with that i don't know how i just like to watch the soot fly so i keep my foot into it now.. however is it standard to shift real hard and fast with the 120? any one who does not have one of the dp-tuners and is thinking about hypertech or superchip or even banks don't waste the money i have a hypertech and no tune it has stands up to jody's chip. i spent like 335 and i'm going to send it back after i put my stacks on and get the 140 smoker and 80 tow tunes added.
i'm going to post vids of stock runs and 120 runs
thank you jody

It's that good. If it isn't, you need to repair something on your truck.

with 115000 on the clock and the 140 i did not want to over do it. i had to tell the wif i needed to get the chip because the hypertech stage 2 was locked into the pcm. (true) but i had to get a few other tunes. but i am going to send it back in a few weeks and add a few more tunes. i'm sure before i know it there will 16 tunes on that thing just to have them

Tenn01PSD350 like the miller brewing company sig. so what can i expect for mileage if i drive it normal after a few weeks?? also I did have a Bully Dog chip is their a huge diffence. That had stock, 65,85,100 high idle and valet 70mph speed limit. I hear the DP is way better. and jody called me at home, 7pm his time after supper, what customer service. I feel like i am wanted some where finally.

I can't break my tires loose under normal acceleration, even with these 35's and with the little wimpy 305's i had. Maybe it's just my truck?

Thanks. I had a 6 pos TS chip prior to the DP. I don't know what kind of mileage you can expect because it depends more on the state of the truck than any other factor besides driving styles. I can say I did not lose economy when I make a conscious effort but that go pedal is simply too tempting.

I can't either Kris, well yeah sometimes if I hit it right, but a lot of that must be my tranny and my limited grip rear. Even powerbraking at the strip and doing a burnout, most of the traction was on the passenger rear while I believe the driver side was shamming out. I loaded up the wheel well with rubber on the one and a lot less on the other.

Sadly, I have become used to the truck now and am considering what to do next. Like I need to do anything but I probably will.

Kris, all that crome is weighing you down which adds to the traction, and its slippery so you have less wind resistance. Yup. You aint spinnin.
Seriously, I'm with you. I wont romp it hard enough to do it or it wont do it, I dont know. I can set a SES for overboost in about 2 seconds so I think between the LS and some pretty grippy rubber, I'll just have to go through life with decent, unburnt tires.
