Tried Superchips ... Now What???

I have tried installing the Superchips tuner on my BONE STOCK 2002 Dodge 2500 CTD and had problems with surging.

What is the best chip to give a reasonable increase in power that allows for moderate towing (6K or less) and has no issues?

Banks ... Edge ... Bully Dog ... ??????????

BTW: 78K miles and lift pump has been replaced with in-tank unit. Fuel pump gauge helped me catch it in time.

seems that if you want a plug and go tuner with no monitoring or no change on the fly...the smarty is the way to go.

Good question, do you have guages yet? Do you want the box to provide "guages?, Then you will want one of the "monitor boxes, like the edge juice, or the hypertec, or the bully dog with outlook or the Quadzilla thingie..

If you have guages and just want a simple box, you get an EZ or a van Aaken, or even a Smarty (perhaps the most beloved box yet)

If you want some serious boxes that tap your VP, then you get a comp, or a blue or a red, or a Hot Juice or a drag comp or better. If you want real serious stuff then you stack hard fuelers on a Smarty.

And/Or you could stick in some injectors too! Don't forget your BHAF, and your 4"-5" pipe w/stacks.

Oh, also get ready to plunk about $5K or better for a tranny that will hold together too.

Then you can start to think about your turbo...because I'm almost positive that yours is too small...

Have fun!
