Alright so i did it. Sent my order form in for the PHP Tuner. I got the Phoenix 6-Position Chip with Stock, 80HP Daily Driver, 100HP Performance, 65HP Tow, and Smoke Show. I just ordered it today and i already can't wait to get it in.

You'll be amazed.
I use the 25hp tow because my trailer is so big and even that tune is amazing.

I have had both DP and now PHP. Power wise they are neck and neck, but I will qualify this by saying Bill's tunes seem smoother to me. much broader power band. Mileage wise I have seem a 1-2 mpg improvement with the PHP chip. EGT wise the PHP is much better. I pull a 5th wheel trailer that scales in at 15,500 lbs and I can't get the temps over 1150 even in 60 tow. i am a very happy camper.

Hey Jason,

If you can live without your chip for a week (2 days shipping each way) and will cover the shipping, we'll be happy to change your 80 perf for an 80 tow at no charge.

Well i'm glad i could do that. Y'all made my day today!!! No really though y'all are great, i spoke to Bill on the phone today and he was so helpful. He answered every question i had, and there was a lot of them. But he was very patient with me and answered everything to the fullest. And Corey, i have only spoke with you on here, but you too were very helpful. Great people, glad i am dealing with y'all!
