DP Tuner Bandwagon Riders

About three or four times a week i read a post about how someone just installed their DP Tuner chip and cannot believe the difference. ALOT of the people around here have done just that, and i thought a thread with a poll would be nice.

I've got Tony Wildman tunes, Once You buy it, He'll reburn the tunes as you make changes down the road for free, forever, Performance is about the same as a DP, It's a huge money saver unless you are going to leave your truck the way it is till the end of time.

The guy I bought the truck from threw it in (SuperChips). It didn't take long to figure out why. Even as a new 7.3 owner I could tell it sounded like poo and shifted like poo's brother.

I had Hypertech and hated it, It was a pain in the but to change programs and would always throw a error code and tell me to call Hypertech. Had to send it back twice to them for repair.

Life is good and hassle free with DP-Tuner

Straight to DP baby!! All thanks to you guys!!

I still remember when I first got my truck exactly a year ago and thinking about how intimidating it looked. But now I'm pretty sure there isn't a whole lot I couldn't handle, and it's all from hanging out here, working with mods, researching stuff, etc.

I used Hypertech first....Then switched to Superchips.
Been using DP Tuner for about 3 years now.
I'll stay with DP Tuner.

I jumped on the diablo predator band wagon several years ago when they were having a sale through Motorhaven (had to support the site). I drive the truck maybe 2k miles a year. Still trying to talk the wife into a MUST HAVE item for a truck I don't drive except for camping. Sure would pull better....hmmmm.

in '01 Bully Dog 30hp puck(basically a 18Kmod) removed it in '04, for the Bully Dog Power Pup w/ outlook monitor(outlook monitor was absolutley unreadable because the digits always changed, and it was still a downloader, so no switch on the fly) '05, added real guages(auto meters that I did not like) '07, ISSPRO guages added and I love them, DP Tuner added why did I wait so long.
