For my misguided dad: Which economy / performance chip for the Chebby Duramax 6.0?

Dad insists upon being a Chebby fan. Not sure why. But anyone know which chip to get for the 6.0L Duramax? The DP-Tuner is obviously the clear leader for our motor. Is there a similarly clear choice for Dad's powerplant?

Thanks if you have any info on this.

The best chip I can advise you is a tree CHIPper. Stay clear or that thing its a deadly disease.
At least the apple fell far from that tree.

True True all the tunning in the world can't fix the fact that its a chevy... However we all know that if Jody makes tunes for them eventually they will be the one to have.

You mean a 6.6? All depends on the year but, either a Quadzilla or a PPE.

EFI live is the big thing for the duramaxies but I don't know Jody Tipton of the D-max guys. I think Jody and Diane got out of the duramax section they just dabbled in it for a little bit and got out.
