yes they are on the fly. alot of places carry them but i would spend the extra money and get a custom chip tony wildman, dp tuner or power hungry performance. I have the TS but am going to get custom tunes on it.
Check With Stealth-Automotive for the TW chip or Groovy Chick For PHP and Jody For DP. DP is updateable via internet for more tunes also holds 16 tunes and has a neat little switch that shows u the number of the tune
TS tunes are generic, best to get custom..not that much more $$ Plus TW will reburn his chip later if you upgrade parts or want to try new tunes...FREE!
Unless you get live tuned all tunes are generic. You are getting pre burnt ready to download files. Some tweeks here and there but for the most part 2 customers with the same or close to the same mods get the same burn.
I got my TS chip form advance diesel about one month ago, I previously had a superchip 1705 module and what a difference. The TS chip is awesome would highly recommend gauges at the same time, with the TS in 140hp setting you can watch the tranny temp and egt's rise so keep an eye on that. The chip was only $235 shipped to my door cheapest around. TS Performance 6 Position Chip
What does matt charge to reburn? Did you notice a big difference over the stock TS tunes, I asssume you got custom to your mods, or were they his "generic" tunes? I am having a hard time paying $400+ for their tunes if the TS will do the same thing for $235
Got 2 of the TS chips and love them both. Biggest difference was on my 250 w/AFE stage 2, Banks turbo back Monster Exhaust and big head waste gate. Mileage is good to as long as you keep your foot out of it. Want to do more upgrades at which time I would like get some custom tunes for it. I would buy again.
but when you say custom, you are referring to 'live" or specific changes like turbo, injectors, ect. right? I will be putting it on a stock truck, with just a DIY intake, and free flowing exhaust. I just see it hard to justify double the price for somewhat "generic tunes, even though it is froma specific tuner.
In all honesty you will probably be satisfied with the TS tunes that come on it. Its just better for your truck to have the other guys do it.
