You'll get the best power, tranny life, and driveability with custom tunes. The best for the 6.4L is Spartan Diesel's new tuner based on the Dash Daq, after that I would go with custom tunes on a SCT X3 or Livewire.

I haven't looked at them, I honestly wouldn't get anything other than the Spartan tuner or SCT. Post in the 6.4 section and they'll probably railroad you that way.

I have heard bad things with regard to SCT and the 6.4. Most everyone that I have talked to says that Spartan is the only way to go with the 6.4 and that is coming from people that are diehard SCT fans with the 6.0, but think SCT is crap at this point for the 6.4.
