Chip for 6.0

vmaxcraz · January 11, 2007

Has any one put a "chip" in the PU that have the 6.0 eng. Local dealer said it would give about 30 HP. He didn't have the torque #'s or the mpg change. Need a little more git up an go. I have the GMC Denali with the 6.0.

While it's a slightly different version of the 6.0, I had mine tuned, and I can say that 30 hp is probably a good ballpark. Shifts are a TON better and more intuitive as well.

Run a couple of searches, there are a wide variety of people who do custom tunes for your truck. Prices ranging from $125-$650...You'll find a wealth of information on the subject here, and see that pretty much everybody says to go with a custom tune instead of a handheld tuner (Hypertech, etc).

We got 27 hp and 34 ftlbs of torque at the wheels with our 6.0L product.

I wouldnt even bother with Edit. Look to EFILive or HPT. Edit was great dont get me wrong. But with the way the EFILive and HPT "black-box" is designed to for direct connection of a wideband. You get the ability to add the WBO2 PID into the scanner suite and log it. PLUS you can also use AutoVE!!!!!!!!!!!!

You might want to check out Diable Sport tuners. I've used one on my PSD Ford X for years with great results.

I like it because you can choose between three different HP/Torque tunes on create a custom one yourself.

The one I have comes with 45HP towing, 65HP performance and 125HP racing tune. I run with the performance tune which puts me at about 385HP and 650LBs torgue. It's like an 8000lb jack rabbit. I have a modified air intake but only a 3.5 inch exhaust. I don't want to heat up those tranny temperatures to much.
