Smile What is the best programmer

Howdy all,

Well since my experience with a chip I did not know was installed on the truck and caused it to quit on me. (unknown maker of chip looked generic)

So my question is what do you guys think the best route would be to go to regain some performance out of it, have looked at a few like the Superchips, and Hypertech programmers, just want something that wont screw up the truck again.

Thanks

David aka LittleGreen4x4

TW or DP Tuner in that order... just giving you a hard time superduty, but seriously, flip a coin, both are excellent.
