New dp tuner installed.
I had an Edge programmer for about 3 days and it didn't perform very well, engine stalling and rough idle. So the guys here on FTE suggested a DP tuner and just finished the install today. I should have known better because the original chip was 10 years old and was fried by a stealership, anyway in my opinion a programmer is easy to install and has some good points like reading and clearing codes however I don't think you can beat a "chip" especially the DP. I had it programmed for no start, stock, 60 econ. and 60 tow and I can get the pistons to swap holes, thanks again for lead.

That's down the road, need to get the exhaust updated and a better cold air, K&N not makin' it, takes in more hot air than cold.

Glad to hear you like it. Do the muffler delete and add the 6637 air filter and your are good to get the 120 and 140 tunes. You did not mention gages you will want these also.

OK, Now I have a question. A no start tune? is that for theft prevention I am assuming.
Sorry for asking such a simple question, but I have only had my diesel a few months and have not done anything as of yet since I am reading all I can. I never played with tuners/chips etc in any gasser, So I am still figuring all this out.....
Sorry to hi-jack, but inquiring minds (like me) want to know.....

Glad you like your DP. Definetly look into exhaust and intake, gauge mods like the guys said above, your have piece and mind plus your truck will be happier.. Just seen your post above Hab, yes, that no-start is a theft deterant, DP Tuner offers that tune for free when you order their chip.

Gauges def. on the list once I get my exhaust straightened out. I have a hard cap and a 80 gal fuel tank set under the cap, so stacks are out, looking to fab. side pipes. Do the Harley rallies and don't have to stop for fuel all the way to Daytona, fill the tanks in Jersey(cheapest state so far).
