I've got the same year truck as you and would highly recommend going Blackbear ..... Justin stands behind his tunes and will modify them to your specs .... I don't have a chirp .....

I, too, have no idea on the chirping (though more often than not it's been belt-related for m -- just haven't had the issue on this truck, knock on wood).

As for the tune, I'd recommend Black Bear, not because I know anything about Diablo, but because I DO know something about Jason and BB. Jason will walk you through the process, answer any questions you have, and make a custom tune for you. He will suit the tune to YOUR needs. He'll even send you a couple different options of tunes, and you can see which one works best.

And there's no "So, what octane do I have to run?" type of thing to deal with, since you're not getting some "stock" tune. If you tell Justin that you only care about MPG, then he'll tell you what he can do, and then do it. If you tell him you want to push the truck to the point of blowing it up, then he can probably make a tune for that, too (although I doubt he really would). lol

Do you know someone to deal with at Diablo? Maybe you do, but I don't -- but I HAD read a lot about Jason and BB here first, and so I felt comfortable going with them. Well, after I asked Jason a million questions via email first. Then I felt especially comfortable.

What he said!

WOW-- yall both got +2 MPG post black bear tune? I'm not trying to do any performance mods that will hurt my MPG too badly.. it's bad enough! Hence all my mods being aesthetically pleasing versus performance based mods. BUT if this ADD's power AND better MPG what more could you ask for?! Looks like i'm signing up for the next BB tuning in TX or surrounding area..
