Have heard good things about both. Truck has a stock auto transmission. Also what tunes should I get on the chip and what tunes are useless. </TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>

 

I think you'll be happy with either. I've talked to Tony. He thinks the stock tune is worthless.

 

i'm a fan of beans, i like their shop and i'm gonna try to get my truck tuned on the rollers when i come home in may. but tony wildman is just as good. personal preference really or cost.

 

Beans.

Jonathan has been able to build his tunes on a dyno, it's worth the price difference.

 

Beans does some damn good work here recently now how long it will last is unknown nothing lasts for ever but they have peaked my interest.

 

I think Jonathan is a permanent fixure there.

If not, I'm sure we can get contact info...

 

I'd go with Tony, but I may be biased. Tony's got some awesome tunes and he's a great guy! I was visiting with him about some reburns, and out of the visit I got some good advise for taking care of our newborn. I don't think you'd find that kind of information from any diesel shop.

Bean's has been around for quite a while and has a great reputation. I wouldn't be afraid of going with either tuner. Biggest factor would be, which is closer to you?

Most guys get tow(40 and/or 60hp), economy/DD(80hp) race/performance(120hp). Another one of my favorites is high idle.

 

nothing against Tony, but my pick would be BEans. Hearing great things about their tunes.

 

I got Tony's and really like them.

 

I hope you have exhaust, intake and gauges before you start talking chips. You didn't say, but I would think you do if you are talking custom tuning.

 

Thanks for all the replies, its good to know both tuners have good reputations on here. Miller Feed: Yes, the truck will have gauges, intake, and exhaust before it gets tuner, Just trying to decide on which tuner to use.

 

Riffraff Diesel for your intake (6637), Gauges, and exhaust (MBRP)

 

Of those two... Beans would get my vote...
