i would call them all equals as far as teh tunes go, php would be the origonal as far as custom tunes go. it comes down to what exactly you want and the style *** you want on teh dash.

just learned something new on that phenoix web page it says with my 97 powerstroke im only limited to the 65 hp setting on chips due to the smaller injectors ( knew they were small but did not know they only recommend such low settings on your chip)

its not that they reccomemnd the lower settings, its the fact that if you put a 120 hp race tune on your truck and use it you wont see anymore power then the 60hp setting on stock injectors. this is something that the "other" companies wont tell you. tw, dptuner and php are up front and knowledgable companies. its worth a call to them and tell them your exact plans for the truck and they will burn you what fits your truck, not whats "on the shelf"

if you plan on doing it soon then wait and get the chip afterwards. or get it burned for the new injectors now and drive on the "stock" tune until you put them in. or a 3rd choice is buy the chip for your current truck then have it reburned when you buy the injectors
