EFI Live
more power and less smoke than all others. drivability and switch tunes on the fly, I think, for the GMs.

For me I have the hypertech and can tow at all power levels. The only one for me for past 6 years on my F250 6.0L. Legal to be used in all states and Canada. Edge just got caught and others need to sign a waver. I believe Banks is also certified.

Been running my DiabloSport Predator for 6 years. Has been good for me. Others have had good luck with PPE. Best would be a custom EFI Live tune for your truck.

There are some programmers suitable for, and compatable with the Duramax engine. To get a broad view of them, spend a few hours reading about programmers on the dieselplace.com forums, scroll down to "power and performance". The Duramax is a great engine, but can be easily destroyed with the wrong choice here. The Allison transmission is designed to reliably withstand only about 70 more HP than the stock engine, so that is the second-most important item.
