there are better things out there than programmers...

get a custom tune.

Westers, Wheatley, or Blackbear makes them for your truck and I have heard good about all 3.

Since neither answered your question...

I have used the Diablosport and Bully Dog on my new 08 and prefer the Bully Dog. I havent tried the Edge, Hypertechor Superchip but I've never had good luck with SC or Hypertech in the past on Gas Silverados.

I am currently running the Bully Dog and am very happy with it. p/n 40510

How does the Bully Dog compare to the Predator?

Be more specific please.
The gains I noticed with the BD seemed to be better, and I like the flexibility that I can also use it on a Dodge or Ford. I've pulled it off my truck, put it on a Mustang for the weekend, and then back on my truck after we were done playing. You cant do that with the Diablo.
