Thanks for the input! As far as firmness in shifting I was always told by tranny guys that sloppy shifting or excess time spent between shifts are usually the hardest on transmissions. A decent, firm, positive shift will do more good than harm. I'm on the fence with Black Bear or Diablo inTune

I have also heard the same thing. A quick firm shift is better for the trans because there isn't as much slippage and heat build-up. Therefore pro-longing the life of the trans and drive line.

A few people I know that have the Intune say they see an average increase of 1-1.5 mpg.(Your results may vary). But I don't know what settings have have set or how they drive. But they are all very happy with the way it works.

The Diablosport website show torque and hp increases of 22 on the 91 tune and 18 on the 87 tune.

Hope this helps.

Thanks that helps. I have the 6.2 and though I like it, it seems to be sluggish and won't downshift when I want it to. So I guess I would like it more aggressive. I also use 93 octane so a tune for that would be nice.

Yeah so far I am averaging close to 2mpg more per mile after the tune. Very happy so far. After plugs and wires change over I hope to get even more ;)
