i have a 97 powerstroke and was thinking about getting the ts 6 position chip for it, was wondering what you guys thought about those chips or what do you recommend?

Have you tried searching here on the forums? There's got to be hundreds of threads that will give you any info you could want

Tony has nice tunes, I think he is going thru some personal issues with his family right now so it might take a little extra time to get to ya I'm not sure tho just don't want you upset if you have to wait a little, most all of the big name tuners are still a very small operation and sometimes can't get things done as quickly as people think they should.... But like the old saying goes good things come to those who wait!

From my understanding of OBS trucks you won't see much more than a 75hp gain with out bigger injectors and what not so you might not see much a difference between the street and extremem setting

would you recommend injectors first then? and whats with the link posted?

The link for power hungry performance? That just happens to be my tuner of choice and was giving Austin a thumbs up for posting it, as for injectors you don't have to do them at all there are countless trucks running around on stock injectors with a chip I was just saying you might not feel much difference between the street and extreme settings without other mods

you prefer there tunes on the 6 pos chip mod then?

Do I prefer tunes from power hungry performance? Yes but that's just my opinion there's Tony wildman, tyrant diesel,swamps,beans diesel, all sorts of guys who sell tunes for these truck and all of them do a great job I just happen to choose PHP because he is close to me and also rebuilt my engine and added most of my mods

he has a georgia area code and yours says your in south carolina? is he over in augusta?

No, he is in winder Ga, up above Atlanta.. His shop is about an 1 1/2 hours from me...


As for tyrant over PHP or PHP over tyrant like I stated earlier it's all personal preference.... I have never daily driven any truck with tunes other than PHP and I like how smooth the power is but for as many people that likes bill's tuning there are just as many people that like TW,tyrant,swamps,beans,diesel innovations I mean there is a bunch of tuners and hundreds of people who can tell you how great each of them are.... My best suggestion is to look around and call 2-3 different tuners and tell them what you want and see what they have to say whichever one you feel comfortable with then go for it
