I to am curious to this. I have an 02 w/ 5.9 and have been hesitant to buy a tuner because i cant do the trans tune and dont know if its worth the price without it. Hate to buy one and be disappointed.

I ran the 87 octane mileage tune, but got better mileage running the 91 Performance tune, plus I feel the truck drives better.

I agree with Luke, better mileage and more power with the performance tune on mine

So its .20 higher in gas thats around an extra $5 in gas. But when the tank of gas lasts longer it evens out.

True. I use 91 Octane either way. I know gas is expensive but I like to baby the motor.
