Does the 87 tune increase power over stock?

Tomorrow, I'm going to fill up with 93, reset the PCM, and install the Performance tune or Tow Tune (haven't decided which yet)

Is there anything else I should do?

I also plan on buying the Advanced Tranny Tuning thing, but I wanna get familiarized with the basics before attempting tranny adjustments...

FYI I have read all 3400+ posts in this thread but my brain hurts too much to go back and read through again. So I'm sorry if I'm repeating old questions.
I did the 87 tune as well when I first got it. I def did notice an increase in that mode...then when I switched to the 91 tune, the increase was more noticeable. You've pretty much covered everything you need to do. if there is something we're both missing somebody can chime in and set us straight!

I have a Superchips 3865 Flashpaq. It was used on my 2008 Ram until I sold the truck. I just wanted to know what year Dodge vehicles that it is compatible with. I have a local guy interested in purchasing it but he has a 2011 Ram and I wanted to ensure him that it will work.

The 3865 will not work for a 2011. They work for 2002-2008 only.

Ok, I have some questions. I'm looking at getting a 3865. I have an 03 4.7L, but it has the NGC PCM (which means no TMR delete for me). Would it be possible to use the advanced trans tuning since I have the newer pcm? I'm not planning on keeping this truck much longer, I'm looking for a 5.9L cummins. It wouldn't be a waste of money though, because when I get rid of this truck I can use the 3865 on my 09 Wrangler. So would this be the best choice for my truck, and later my Jeep? This 4.7L has been nothing but a disappointment, I don't even see why Dodge put this motor in a full size truck. And to top it off, I get like 13 MPG at best, wtf!

Mods:
Power wire
CAI
Exhaust
Trans Pressure line booster
180* Thermostat
6" lift
33" tires

Where can i get the superchips tuner with the trans programming? I have the DSP, but im wanting to get the Superchips to see if i like it better because it can reduce the torque management.

You can buy a Vivid, 3950 or 3865 just about anywhere. All you have to do is see plug it in to your computer to update and purchase the trans tuning.

This is a vid I put together quick way back when the trans options came out. Kinda gives a walkthrough on how to obtain the trans options once you have a 3865 in hand. In fact, this same tuner is for sale in the classifieds section
