Should I send my Dp back?

Hello every one,
I was woundering if I should send my Dp tuner back to get it re-burned for my new turbo and my RR system. I also want to get a Dyno tune, is that worth it?
Thanks
Nick

I don't think you will see anything, that still falls into standard tunes. Your next step is probably live tuning. But if you decide you want more tunes I can set you up when your here for the Dyno day...

Nick, I didn't get a reburn when I did the turbo. But when I got the injectors, I had to get a reburn. I sent my chip in for the reburn and I was not very happy with the way it idled. I went to Jody's house and got LIVE tuning. I am so happy now.

I asked him about a custom tune for my stage 1 injectors 10-15% upgrade from what I was told he said that a stock program was fine. Running very well with stock tunes. Well regular tunes.

Yeah, if you would like, I can do that for you. Start thinking what you want now.

Why do you want a 20T nick I could about promise you that you'd never use it espcially pulling with an Ex. What is the lowest tow tune that you have right now?

Unless you go with Injectors or a tranny then there is no need to reburn just add.

Nick, you'll never use the 20 tow. I wanted it also and Jody talked me out of it when live tuning. He said that it was a custom tune he did for a guy a while back that hauled INSANELY large weights. He kept it on as an option just because. He said that it'd be highly unlikely that I'd ever use it even if I was pulling 18-20K plus. The 40tow is plenty.
