TS Chip or DP??
I know everyone will say Dp is hands down the best but got a few Q's.
Is Dp better for automatics and manuals or does it matter?
If I had a chance to get a TS 6 pos. chip for way less than a Dp would it be worth it?
Just wondering cause most people here have auto's and talk about how good Dp is on shifting, but my case I have a zf-6, so I guess my real question is....TS is it good or as good as DP or should I continue to save for the BEST?
Thanks

from research, it appears the DP is more popular with automatics over the TS because of the TS's poor shifts that feel like they are going to tear the truck apart
in your case, i would say it is personal preference. personally, i would save for the DP, as i currently am right now

lol...i know, just wanted to get a few opinions. Done some research on here about TS and only found bad things about its shift points, but power seems to be good. I don't know guess I'll do it right the second time and get a Dp.

I had a TS and now have a DP. As you mentioned, I have an auto and wasn't exactly happy with the shift. You have a stick. I will say the TS made good power over stock. Way better than stock. I got the DP and can say it blew the TS chip away in the seat of the pants meter.
How cheap is the TS? Probably someone stepping up to a DP eh?

I sold my predator at the beginning of the summer, but unexpected repairs has kept my truck stock without DP tuner. Wish I would of listened to the smart people on this forum that told me to get the DP in the first place instead of the Predator!!

I Currently have the TS performance chip. I had a Trans go shift kit installed in our Automatic trans and it shifts flawless. Im happy with it for now but i would like to ride in a truck with the Dp to see the BIG difference that everyone talks about.
