For that price I would just look on here for an edge evo. Might spend a few more bucks but I think you'd be happier with the edge. Prolly by far the most recommend mod for our trucks. And plus if you need help with calibrations and settings there are tons of it in threads all over this place.

Yah. Well lookn at a used edge with dash pod is 250$. Just saying if your gonna spend the money, I would buy the edge. Truck just feels a whole lot better driving period. When accelerating and passing. I'm sure someone can chime in

Oh ok, no offense. I promise if you get it you wont be disappointed. I hate my truck without it, especially with my lift and tires. They pop up all the time so no rush

I have the bully dog gt and i was pretty impressed with the hp gains out of it. I was running the premium fuel setting for a while, but gas is just too damn expensive, and i was starting to beat on my truck a little too much, so i set it back to the 2nd setting. You can still feel a noticeable change in that setting also. For some reason alot of guys are not a big fan of them on this forum, not sure why, maybe because they have never tried one. The driving coach can help you, but it is really sensitive. The same tuner can also be used on diesels and a big list of other vehicles.
Nothing against the edge, I've played with those in a few diesels and they are great and everyone loves them for these gassers also. The reason i have three bully dog is because a buddy of mine rolled his truck, so i bought it for $100 from him.

I got one for $175 on craigslist and couldn't be happier. It does a good job, works well, gets around 2MPG gains on my 5.4 with 35's.
