there is no such thing as chips anymore.

You need to purchase a tuner. You reprogram the trucks PCM with a tuner.

Best ones out there are Banks for DPF on tuners

DPF off ones are Spartan/H&S/DPF R+

The list goes on.

If you drop down to the 6.4 section you will find alot of info

I think he's referring to the $30-$100 "chips" that wire into your rigs electrical system. These often advertise crazy MPG, HP & Torque gains. It's a plastic box with a few capacitors and maybe even an actual circuit board in them with two wires. I wouldn't even waste my time. I could build one for $5.00 in my garage. I'll make you a deal and sell it to you for $15.00 instead of the eBay price.
