08 5.7.....go Diablo or Superchips. If staying pretty stock then stay with SC. If going to get a cam later on and need custom tuning then get Diablo

Yeah I agree. You are debating between the wrong two. It should be between the Superchips and the Diablo. Bullies are great diesel truck tuners but they haven't put the same kind of effort into the gassers...

For fuel savings and added power only - go with the Superchips Tuner, although, when I switched from the older superchips tuner (3815) to the dsp I picked up 2mpg over the superchips and about .4 sec off my 0-60 time. The DSP is a great tuner, I love mine, but it seems the trans tuning on the newer superchips tuners is much better for guys looking to keep the truck relatively stock minus the normal boltons (exhaust and CAI). The DSP really shines once you start adding more power adders (cam, heads, headers) and lets you fine tune and log things that superchips simply wont.

Any one have a link to the SC unit?
I have a bone stock (exept for the muffler, not sure what it is but, I know its been changed) '04 Hemi w/ 136,000 miles and would like a little more power (especially towing) and better mileage. Might change the air cleaner but, don't plan on any other mods.
Also, don't care for the trans shift program much either.
