Default Need help choosing programmer!

I need help choosing either a gryphon programmer or a MPT performance programmer for my 2006 ford f-150 Harley-davidson. I will be getting custom tunes for which ever one I go with.

I have a Gryphon and have had it for a couple years now. Right now I am in the process of getting my Hexcode number changed since I installed a new ECM/PCM

I like it and yes it does give the truck more noticeable power and also takes care of a few known issues to these trucks(Throttle lag, etc etc.). You also should consider that when I got my Gryphon there weren't a whole lotta choices at that time for programmers with "custom tunes". I have not had any hands on experience with the rest of the programmers that are out there nowadays. With that said, I haven't had any problems at all with the Gryphon and if I were in that same situation again, I would buy it again. SCT has achieved a good name and people that have them seem to really like them. I would seriously be looking at them as well if I were in the market to buy another programmer today.
