Hey Adam where in Jonestown are you located? Talk on here is that the DP-tuner is the best tuner hands down, I just cann't seem to say to buy one yet.

Unless it's free I wouldn'd do it go with TW or DP. They are custom burnt chips that you install on your PCM and they are fabulous

I've got the Bully Dog 4 bank 6 pos. It's great, but the re-mapping is not what I've seen of DP. I drive in the 50 setting most of the time, the 75 is worthless and makes my truck sound funny, and the 120 smokes more than it goes. The 120 is good for before the turbo spools up, and when you are already going 60+ in my opinion. I wouldn't have got it if I didn't get it for half the usual price. It is really great for out running the stock HPOP on an early 99 though!

I have ran the bully dog before as well. Hands down I like the DP much better. The only thing that I had reprogrammed was to lock the tc in 2nd gear earlier. The dog did that when on 2nd manually and it was nice when towing up some of these canyons to have it locked. But like I said, the DP has been setup this way with a few other fun settings as well. Go for the DP, you won't regret it at all.

+1 for the DP. Stay away from "off the shelf" tuners. They are more hype than substance.

My post is useless to you, because you have already seen the right answer a few times.

Welcome to FTE.
