How do you guys feel about me getting this for my mom for mothers day to throw on her 06 duramax. Are they worth it?

I know there are alot of opinions on programmers.I like the PPE stuff myself.FAR more bang for the buck,An econo programmer is about the same price.Check them out.I like to deal with Alligator performance they are quick and easy to deal with.They have free shipping to.

I just took my Bully Dog out of the Blazer. I just spent more in a repair caused by the programmer than the programmer cost.

The diesels are a lot more tolerance though. I'd still be careful not to turn it up too high.

yes chips are fine as long as long as you dont turn them up to high this will always ruin the vehicle eventually, My friend has a powerstroke diesel and has it cranked and has gone through 4 transmissions some times you can have to much power in a everyday vehicle!!!

Yes you can,Im dealing with a little trans issue right now cause I got a little carried away with tuning.In a diesel for everyday driving no more than a 90hp tune.I went with a 120HP and regret it now.But I want a built trans but not right now.5k for a good one Ouch!
