If you are looking for some serious power go with the ATS epower or the ppe hot +2. Both of those will trash a transmission though.

i just want a little more power and i want to keep my stock tranny. just an extra 80 or 100 horse with a good price.

Then you should look at the ppe standard or something like edge.

I had the Edge Juice with Attitude before, it is nice because of the switch on the fly power levels, and it doubles as full set of gauges too

I used my Bully Dog power pup on my 06 LLY and my 03 LB7 and it worked great on both. Plenty of power, and good MPG on the tow/econ settings.

Never had any issues with it at all, very pleased.

I run a bully dog set to extreme on a stock trans with no gauges the economy or performance level would be great for you guys. I have also done the same with an ATS epower. Although I have ran up to level 8 on a bone stock LLY I reccomend Level 1-3 as a daily driving tune. Both tuners are right around $500 new so its a hard pick, but if you want BIG power down the road definately go with the ATS epower.

Ive heard a lot of people love the price of the predator.

Usually I only recommend the Ede Juice with attitude, PPE Hot, or EFI Live.

If you want to spend the extra money the Edge Juice is really nice, and will give you even more power. Which youll end up liking. And it wont ruin a trany.

I love my EFI Live a year and a half later now that I know what Im doing, but its certainly not for everyone.

I hated the predator a 500rwhp tune shifts better than any tune the predator has imo.

i dont think anyone has said it but hypertech works well. you dont need gauges, its fine on stock trans and you can still tow your factory rating with it in stage 3. also they are cheap, i just sold one for 100. cant beat it for that.
