You are going to get a constant answer in here it will either be a Tony Wildman or a DP I believe is the other one both are supposed to be really good and not screw up truck.

on the website you choose the settings, i'm not sure of exacts but i beleive the towsafe and economy are around 80 hp and fuel at different points, the daily is 100 hp, the street race is is 120, extreme is 140 and smoke is 140 but fuels heavy at low end rpm's just for blowing ridicluos amounts of smoke.

i may be wrong but those are the numbers popping into my head
