I installed the Bully Dog 40420 on my 2015 Ram 2500 6.7 Cummins. And I don't really feel much difference from when it was stock compared to the extreme tune.
I know it is all up to date and installed properly, but the only thing I feel that changed is the no power added seems to be a lot less power than I had with the stock tune. Then it goes up from there to the extreme that feels like the stock tune. Maybe a little more power, but not much.
When you look at vids on youtube, everyone says there is a major difference that you can definitely feel. And they are amazed.
I am comparing this to when I had a 2010 Ram 3500 DRW and installed a Smarty Jr on it. From stock to the performance tune was like night and day different. It would pull you back in the seat. And helped get better fuel mileage.
Anyone have any comments about the Bully Dog tuner.

Thanks,
Unhappy

No one uses the Bully Dog? I wish I would have known that before I got this one.

My opinion is... this thing sucks.

Two or three updates and still doesn't work. When I contact them, they say they are still working on it with no luck. It's been about three weeks now.

I should have went with a Smartyjr. Or maybe a Raceme.

Very unhappy. :(

Have you tried returning it to stock and driving it around awhile without the tune?

Any chance you'd wanna sell it? I just need a tuner to adjust the speedo/tpms and use as a monitor.
