bullydog good/bad?

[RL06]

05' 6.0 f250. Looking to buy a programmer. Down the grape vine i heard bullydog isnt a good mix for the 6.0's. Any takers on that or is just a bad experience with it??

i have the bully dog gt in mine. i like it, wakes it up alot, fun to play with, it gets confused sometimes and shifts funny, or doesnt shift until you let off. but other than that i like it.

Bullydog has been known to kill trannys.
You can get a better tuner for less money, check out the SCT.
the vast majority of people with 6.0's on this site run a SCT

a friend has the tripple dog I believe on his 07...shifting is way off at times

all the way your trans will thank you!

HAve the bullydog in mine, Shifting is only funny when you change tunes. The tranny needs some time to relearn your driving habits. Other than that I have been very happy with mine.

thanks for all the input. when i do get a programmer, any recommendations to any other aftermarket accessories i should include with a programmer?

If you are interested, I have a triple dog power pup with outlook monitor that I took off my 2004. I was happy with it using it in only DD and some limited pulling. Agree that the only tranny hiccups I had was when changing tunes on the fly, otherwise it worked fine. I just upgraded to the SCT for the custom tunes. $300 takes both programmer and monitor and I will ship to you.

Bully dog actually has some nice files for the engine, but the tranny tuning sucks as said before.
I run a triple dog on my 06 and only in the lowest setting and it works fine.
But if you want a really sweet tuner get an SCT like I have on the 04.

If Im correct, and sometimes rarely I am, Bullydog does NO TUNING for the transmission. I had a triple dog. Tons of power but the transmission didn't know what the H was going on. Go SCT. Safe and gobbs of refined power.
