Default insight on chip reburn

I currently have a 6 position ts generic chip. It made a difference in the truck but it seems a custom tuner will make a bigger improvement. Looked at php's list of files and wanted to know what people use and like. I know I want a tow tune so that takes up one spot. Also, is stock setting worth keeping. Have it now and never use it. Its an 01 with standard shift so shift points don't matter. I already have 4 inch exhaust and plan on making a better intake soon. Thank you.

I have also looked at tony's tunes as well and the price is the same. Just wondering if my truck will even see gains with the extreme or race settings. I see no improvement when going from 100 to 140 setting on my chip now.

Your best bet would be to call and talk to them...

I have never had a stock setting on any of my chips, its a waste when you can pull the chip and be stock in about 30 seconds!

I had my TS reburned by Swamp's after I installed single shots. Jonathan asked alot of detailed questions about the truck and mods before I sent it in. I usually deal with Twisted Diesel but they referred me, Swamp's was great to deal with. But like many will tell you, shop around to see what/who will be best for you! Good luck!
