The programmers really shine with the diesels 100+ HP is not uncommon. That being said just be aware that some dealers will report your vehicle as being modified beyond the intended design and it MAY void part of your warranty if the dealer states it caused the particular failure. Just a friendly reminder.

Yes its true that you can reprogram back to stock, but somebrands leave a trail behind. Check with the manufacturer of the programmer to find out if the one your are intersted in can be removed with no trace left behind. I know some can be completely removed and leave no trail. Good Luck

I have the 6.0 and I am running a Hypertech Power Programer 3 and it works like a champ. I bought it used on ebay for $125 I would deffently recommend. But the bigger the motor you have the more increase you will notice.
