TS Performance chip feedback

I'm looking for peoples satisfaction with the TS chip setup. Power and MPG satisfaction. I know everyone raves about the Dp-Tuner and if I had the $$$ I'd go there too. While we're at it, what are the differences between the two. Heard of Tony Wildman, but don't know much about his.

Thanks in advance for the great info.

AFAIK T/S has not made any new 7.3 programs in quite a while (years). They pretty much stopped 7.3 R&D when the 6.0 came out. Tony is a very good programmer.

I've had pretty good luck with the TS set-up because of the custom tune with my BTS trans. Every once in a while it has some weird gremlins, such as it reverts back to stock setting. It has happened about 4-5 times in about two years. I have not seen any great increases in fuel mileage, but the power is good.

I love mine. I've had mine for 4or5 years now. I sent it back one time for a update and never been out again for any kind of problem. I think it's the best chip out there for me. If you have a setup close to mine you should get around the same numbers as I have on a dyno. 318hp 748torque. The two things you might need to watch for is the turbo surge that you can get with any chip and stock turbo combo and over boost light. If either of these things happen this is what you will need to do. Again these can happen with any chip! If you get surge, you will need to buy a ATS tuned housing to fix the surge ATS PORTED SHROUD COMPRESSOR HOUSING - ATS6355 and if you get the over boost light you will need this Boost Relief Valve + Sorry if you already knew this but if you didn't I hope it helps. You will never regret it.
