Haha... Maybe I should have changed the title of the topic to "First Mod".

Brand new truck.

How beneficial are professional tunes (Wheatley, etc.) compared to a do-it-yourself HPTuners (If you know what you're doing.)?

Tune, intake, and muffler seem to be the three popular (and best bang for the buck) at this point...

iron head 6.0, im sure you could pick one up for $400, just ask Quik

as for Wheatley vs. Yourself, of course they are gonna be better than you at first if you never tuned before... but eventually if you get the hang of it youll be better off in the long run $$ wise
