I have a Nelson tune already but i just got my finish line tranny in and they suggest stock tranny line pressures so i was gonna get the tune redone for the tranny anyway and im wanting to do something else to th engine before i ge it tuned again. so would the dyno tune give me a lil more power or is it the same?:burnrub:
Basically a mail order tune will yield more gains in overall drivability, but the dyno tune will get you more peak hp. I wouldn't worry about the dyno tune unless you have some extra money to play with at the time.
Being that Mail order retunes are free, I would get both. You should be able to pick up some more power on a dyno.
Handling the trans tune is no problem, we tune for built transmissions all the time, so easy a caveman... lol.
As for getting a dyno tune, why not get a wideband, run the truck on the street and let me know what the a/f ratio is, then we'll fine tune it. A lot less than a dyno tune, plus you have a valuable tool afterwards.
Doing it this way, you'll get the same results because.
-things like TM, no need for a dyno tune
-i've already got the timing table setup and maxed for your truck/oct level
-shiftpoints, no need for a dyno tune
-trans tune, no need for a dyno tune
-speed limiter, rev limiter, misc settings/adjustments, no need for a dyno tune.
PLUS, once you get done with your dyno tune, you still need to install a wideband and test and tune the a/f ratio for street driving, it's always different when on the street.
SO, in your case, the only advantage you'll have by getting a dyno tune is dialing in the a/f ratio, you and I can do that (plus I bet it's pretty close anyway).
hope this helps,

There ya go. :spit:
