I have the lowest of three settings of the SCT brand installed on my stock 2001 F250. It is a program that you plug in and install. Very easy, right below the steering wheel. You can load the stock on back on if you ever want to-but you won't want to. I have been very happy with it. It made the engine come alive, adding about 50hp and it raised the mileage by 2 pg-at least according to the digital reader in the truck. Going to the 2nd or 3rd level one should consider upgrading the intake/exhaust to protect the turbo.

I got a DP-Tuner and really like it. I've heard plenty of good things about the TS but I can't speak for it. My DP-Tuner is simple, on the fly, and has all the settings you could ever want. My setup is 0 - No Start, 1 - Stock, 2 - 80HP Economy (not much economy if you get on it ), 3 - 140HP Aggressive, 4 - 1100 RPM High-Idle. It's great...just wish I would have got a towing tune on it .

I MUCH prefer a TS based chip over the DP... You can use any tuner you like with the TS blank. If you buy a DP chip, you are locked to there tuning and only there tuning.

To clear up something you can stack a chip with a ICP mod ( the banks 6 gun is nothing more then a Fancy ICP mod...).
