Best Fuel Mileage Chip/Programmer?

[tclapp]

OK fellas here is the deal.... My boss just bought me a 01 7.3 4x4 6speed and the truck is going to be a pavement queen never pulling anything.... not looking to drop lots of HP into the truck or looking to get gauges simply looking to get the best fuel mileage possible.... what is going to be our best bet for a chip... keep in mind Im a cummins guy, I have no idea what programmers/chips are good for the 7.3's when it comes strickly to fuel mileage....so thanks in advance

i mean i realize im new to the site, but why even post that? I am just trying to get some information on the new truck that I am going to be driving which is a POWERSTROKE! and this is a POWERSTROKE forum im not asking about my cummins im simply asking bout the powerstroke that I am going to be driving, its not that I asked about my cummins.... Personally I like the 7.3's

Go with either DP Tuner, or a Tony Wildman(Total Diesel Performance) chip. A custom tuned chip will definitely perform wayyyyyyyyyyy better then a TS chip.

I personally would go with Tony Wildman.


And definitely get gauges. At least an EGT gauge. It is definitely a BADDD idea to run a chip without at least an EGT gauge.



Hope that helps man

guys I know all about EGT's... I baby my truck and I am going to baby this truck... I am not going to rem on it... its going to be a pavement queen no hard driving just back and forth to our warehouse... the chip will never see over 60 hp... I know how to drive like a gpa... trust me I dont wana ruin a good thing by trashing out a truck that is bought for me....
