Not trying to be a jerk here, but this is the best way to find information about tuners.

Look in DIY section for discussions on this. It appears to be a matter of personal preference. There isn't a difinitive answer. May depend on how you use your truck, etc. I followed numerous discussions and settled on SCT from Hemifever, partially based on customer service. Call and talk to Sean.
