Which is better???

Hello everyone. I have been reading quite a bit about diesels lately because I'm going to get my first in a few days (2003 7.3 crew cab). Anyways I have been reading some about performance modifications and the like and I was just curious as to what everyone's thoughts are about whether you like to chip their truck or use a tuner on it. I have came to the conclusion that I either want to get the TS 6 position chip or the edge juice with attitude monitor. Could someone please enlighten me on the benefits on each and on which one I should purchase.
Thanks a lot for any and all advice!!

I had a Banks big hoss chip, it was good, powerful but stuck at one level. Then I got the TS 6 position and its great, 6 positions so I don't have to drive on "high" everywhere. And the shift patterns work very well. I'd get the TS, the only thing is its doesn't have any built in gauges like the attitude monitor. But if you go to ebay and do a search for ATS or TS chips, you'll find a guy named Scott that gets his from TS and sells them for $250.00. That's a steal. Its where I got mine.

They claim up to 140hp, I don't know the torque numbers. I haven't had the truck dyno'ed yet. I'll know hopefull soon, because I plan on going to a dyno shop to get my NOS tuned.
