Just can't decide, my dad just got a juice for his dually (01 ally), to be honest not all that impressed. My 01 2500 6 gear with a predator felt much faster and quicker, granted big weight difference and the hand shakers are more responsive. But, in a quarter it would only run as fast as my stock 02 cc I have now. this was on the 60? hp setting, he won't go any higher he doesn't want to limp the ally. Have been doing some searches on the stealth 110 quad, seems to be all over the place on performance and whether it is just a damn bully dog reboxed. Not sure about a predator cause of the vin locking feature and high egts. would like to stick with a programmer cause they are cheaper and my old z-28 needs some new solid roller lifters that are 500 bucks a set. So basically is the quad worth a hoot or should I just get a juice or something else. I have a stock ally and will be leaving it that way. Seems the quad comes on softer than the others but also has no protection for the tranny either. I don't really tow that much but when I do I put them back to stock or just run the lowest setting.

Gimme a call and we can discuss your needs. I'm on the phone a lot so leave a voice mailand I'll call you back. Your dad sticking with the 60HP setting is a wise man. Kinda like the young bull/old bull on the hill...

If you're keeping your 2002 transmission stock AND want protection, the Banks 6-gun works very well on the LB7's. If you want a programmer (no transmission protection), I would go with the Bullydog Powerpup or the Hypertech. Stage 3 on the Bullydog will outrun stage 3 on the Hypertech, AND you can bypass the speed limiter.
