Remove the Bully Pup. You have prob already caused permanent damage to the tranny. You have a 6.0 diesel, right?

There are a lot of bad tuners and bad tunes out there. Go down to the 6.0l section and ask what there opinion of the Bully Dog tuners are and ask them what tuner you should get. For the 6.0l I'm pretty shure you'll want and SCT Xcal3 or Livewire with tuning from Innovative Diesel or Spartan. All tuners and tunes are not created equal.
