Thumbs down

HI!... Just replace your front bumper cover with the one you have already. That CERVINI's one you posted the link to has got to be the FUGLIEST bumper cover I have ever seen for these trucks!!!!!!!!

alright guys im bout ready to get my truck dyno tuned and have a ? for ya.. the tuner said he can custom tune with my programmer(predator). he said if i had a SCT that it would be easier to tune because its more "user friendly".. now he said chances are the gains will be near identical and both r very good tuners, but he thinks i should go SCT because its easier to use..now HONESTLY DO YOU GUYS THINK IT MATTERS...

they both are about the same, I've been using SCT and my buddy swears by diablo

I'd say whichever the tuner is most comfortable tuning with (you've come too far to cheap out now)

just my $0.02

and as far as bumper covers, I'd get try to find an '01 roush bumper or a lightning bumper as last resort, the cobra R hood YES, cobra R bumper on a truck "NO" it just screams rice...

Honestly NO,,,BUT your better off going with what your tuner has been using or is most comfortable with.

The guy that tunes my truck is an authorized SCT dealer and he will not tune with anything else but SCT

6 of one or ˝ dozen of an other. A tune is a tune. I agree with Jerame and Phil. Go with what the tuner is more familiar with. less of a chance of leaving something out.
