Default Lookin for more power

So its a slow day today and I'm just sittin here thinkin about how I can get more power. I think I found a couple pretty good products. What do you all think?
Tuning Hardware
More Tuning Hardware

I'm kinda leanin toward the first one. I know its quite a bit more expensive, but you get over double the gains over the second one, and it looks like it has a ton more features! Also ordered one of those new tornado deals...















This is part of a conversation I had with a guy I work with that got an '02 RCSB 4.8 yesterday. He showed me that and said: "What? Do you think I should spend the extra money and get the hypertech or Diablo?" So I told him some of the stuff that can be done to these trucks and gave him a business card to where I get my stuff done and introduced him to this site.

Good one!
I wish someone would have introduced me to this site before I bought my Diablo. At least I bought it used so maybe I can get some of my money back when I finally decide to spend the money on a real tuning program. I'm getting close I just got a decent laptop from ebay a couple of days ago.

i had this same conversation with a guy i work with just yesturday. he has a 97 5.7. it went ebaying it up too. he was like "i bought this power chip...... i bought this ebay intake, this ported t/b........." (which was a home job that someone had done). not knocking it but there is better places to put the money. so i also introduced him to this website and told him not to buy one thing without comming to me first. maybe i can point him in the right direction one mod at a time. thank god for PT.net!
