Question DP-Tuner??????

I would like your input, I'm running a stock 99 f350 7.3 with 167,000 miles and i was thinking about puting a DP-Tuner with the 80hp Econo daily driver and a MBRP 4" Turbo Back Exhaust,

my question is will the Tuner kill my Trans i wont be racing just want more power and better MPG. Thanks

I would get a trans temp gauge, but it shouldnt hurt your trans. Infact, it may help it. If you get him to change your shift points to where it shifts firmer it helps the transmission out from what Diane told me.

if you drive in a normal fashon it will make your trans last longer
I just got mine with only 40 tow and 80 econo and really like it
it make my trans shift better and locks torque earlier
I really like the tow tune for city driving

I wouldnt get that. When I got mine I ordered the set from dieselmanor and it costs a little more but its alot better product. If you get the isspro set from them it comes with the gauges, pod, all install parts and very detailed instructions. The isspro gauges in black also match the interior of our trucks perfectly (stock gauge look)
