Hypertech, Predator, Jet, there are tons of brands of tuners out there but from what I hear everyone says you should go with an hp tune by wheatley or nelson. Im told these tunes are way better. I bought a predator and tuned my truck and I was not satisfied at all with it. Another thing you need to think about is anytime your adding "performance" upgrades to make more horsepower or torque you arent going to get better gas mileage because most likely your foot will be in it all the time.

How come? Did you screw with it or just load the tune that it came with?
