As long as it says 'returned to stock' you're good. I'd plug it in (if you can) just to verify one last time.

I have 2008 1500 Mega cab with the 5.7 and I'm looking for a tuner but I would like some ideas on who makes the best at a reasonable price. I tow a 35 foot TT and I'm looking for better mileage even without the trailer and was wondering if a tuner would help.

Holy 7yr old thread resurrection Batman!

If you're not cracking the engine open to change things, then a Superchips is the best one for you unless you wanna pony up for a custom tune on your stock engine.

Don't expect a miracle with a tuner. The only way the tuner gets better gas mileage is turning on MDS earlier / more often. Even then, it's barely noticeable at the pump.
