Dr. Performance Chips Any Good

I have a 2006 F350 6.0L and I was wondering if anyone has any news and the Dr, Performance chip, if it is good or bad. I like the idea that it does not over fuel to increase power. What do you guys think?

just about everyone on all the powerstroke forums with recommend custom tunes via xcal for the 6.0L and nothing else.

I am unware of that. May want to call the tuner of your choice or maybe 2-3 tuners and ask them the same question.

Thanks again, I don't want to raise the cylinder pressure because I worry about head gaskets, do you know if the 06 are bad for that??

I think duffman is right. However, I would still call a few tuners and talk to them about cp's then make a decision and go from there. I would refer you to eric at innovativediesel.com, Dj diesel performance and Doug at gogodiesel.com. As for the head gasket/bolt problem the 05+ have revised heads I believe and shouldn't be as bad as 03's and 04's.
