I've used VMP and PBD dyno in the past but haven't heard of OZ yet. As of right now I have no issues with traction so I can't comment about that. I'm assuming this thing will break in or something. Possibly the dealer filled it up with 87 IDK but was hoping for more... Maybe Roush will do a phase II like they did for the 15-17.
I think i'll try Lund for tuning this next go around.

FYI, I don’t think Lund is tuning trucks right now, I tried earlier this year and they turned away my business, so did AED. AED referred me to Matt at ID Motorsports, and he did a good job with my 16 Roush truck, shaved over a second on the 1/4th with just a tune.
VMP is a joke, and wasted almost two months of my time and had the nerve to charge me a restocking fee when I got fed up with their excuses. I’m sure at some point in the past they were good, but now they are too big and busy with not enough staff.

OZ tuning is garbage from jump street. Buy it and take your chances.

Opinions vary with all tuning shops. Some like Oz...some don’t. Some like SSI for the EcoBoost trucks...some don’t. I love and use ID Motorsports...TX Ripper had a terrible experience with them. Nobody makes everybody happy...it’s just not possible.

I had a terrible experience with VMP, yet others think they are great. I've had a good experience with ID Motorsports, but some on this board had a terrible experience. All I can say is its not really just about the tune, but the service. Find a tuner or shop that is easy to communicate with and offers good service, the tuning after that will be much easier if they have the time of day to deal with your concerns. Horsepower numbers and dyno graphs are worthless as a decision making tool....literally worthless. There is so much more to a good tune with good driveability then a three digit number, and this is especially important when tuning via email.
The one thing I can say is tuning is a very competitive business, so shop around and send out some emails and see how a companies responses make you feel. The one thing I'll also mention is its important to know who is doing your tuning. Some of these bigger tuning outfits have multiple guys doing tune files, and I'm sure some are better then others. I think a successful tuning business is not good for the quality of the tunes they produce in the long run, as they'll have less time to work on any individual tune. Outfits like Lund, AED, VMP, and others built their reputations based on the tunes being developed by their founders...yet you get a tune from any of them now, and its probably not John, Shaun, or Justin doing your tune files.
