Default Help with a tuner for an '02 Denali...

I want to put a tuner on my Denali, I'm stock as c**k and have no plans for mods beyond exhaust, intake, MAF and throttle body. What is a good tuner for this set up? I was looking at the PPE gas Xcelerator, any input on that one? Or should I just sack up and get HP Tuners?

id get a mail order over a hand held, you will be best off with a custom dyno tune though, dont waste your time with a maf sensor. the only kind of throttle body you will benefit from is just a stock ported throttle body

Normally I wouldn't recommend any one tuner over another, especially since any one of our sponsors would probably do you a great job. But in your case, Westers more than likey has more experience with the Denali's than anyone. If you want to learn to tune your vehicle yourself, just be carefull, ask for help when needed and then HP Tuners would be a excellent product for you. Main thing is just like everyone said, don't waste your hard earned dollars on a hand-held.

Alrighty. I'd love to be able to tune my own vehicle but there are just too many parameters and yadda yadda yadda.

Denali or not doesnt make a difference in the the tune, any one of our sponsors would be a good choice.
