Have you checked out Black Bear Tune? They are a vendor on here and can get you a custom tune for a similar price.

Hand held tuners have really never proven themselves to be worth the money at all. They show minimal gains at best.

Custom tuned computers like what Black Bear Performance offers is a real tune. They will improve drive ability, mileage, power, etc to your wishes. They can also tune for specific mods.

Overall, handhelds cost a fortune for almost no gains other than a lighter wallet...

well i have used hand held "power programmers" for years and have never been impressed, but i just got a custom tune from black bear and i can not tell you what an improvement, im still shocked its incredible, not to mention $150 cheaper, the power and shifting is amazing so was the service from justin and jenna, but most of all, THE MILEAGE, i went from 600-630 kms a tank to 738 and 746 on my last two. i can not repeat enough how this is the greatest product and mod i have done or anyone can do
