What is the best programmer/tuner for your transmission???????

[browning32]

First timer on this form and first time diesel owner. '06 ps 6.0....I'm sure this thread has been coved before, but I thought I would ask anyway. I'm looking for a programmer/tuner that will monitor or go easy on my transmission and give me respectable hp and gas mileage. Not looking to be the fastest on the road just smoke a few rice burners here and there. Thanks in advance!!!!!!

from what ive seen and heard, the banks six gun is great. you have a low risk of engine (and im assuming tranny too) problems because of safegaurds built right into the tuner....plus its also adjustable on the fly which is a big bonus. im sure some of the other guys will have ideas as to what else is a good way to go....just hang on and the experts will be on to answer everything

SCT can program the trans. Keith

It all depends on what you're looking for pretty much. A lot of places will do exactly what you want, TS performance, etc..

Welcome to Powerstroke.org!
This is a question that will get MANY different answers and opinions. I currently run a Predator and have loved it with ZERO problems in 25,000 miles. I'm now looking at moving to one I can adjust on the fly and have spent HOURS reading the past couple of days about them. At first I was going to go with the 6-gun but now I'm leaning toward the Bully Dog Triple Dog with Outlook monitor. Everyone who I read about and actually had one loved it. Plus it'll cost me a bunch less than the 6-gun with the PDA option. SCT gets rave reviews but I want something inside the cab that I can change as needed and has some bit of safety precautions built in. Well that's MY opinion - once again WELCOME!!!

Yeah that's a huge selling point when chips are adjustable on the fly....the handheld programmers won't go away but i'm sure they loose sales by not being so flexible...
