HP Tuners has a huge user base with over 8000 members on our forum http://www.hptuners.com/forum/index.php so you'll have a huge resource of information right there. Our software is very user friendly with 3 different settings for basic, standard & advanced so your not overwhelmed with parameters & you can change it at anytime right through the editor.

We also offer Real Time Tuning using the stock pcm which in itself can give you a huge advantage over other programs that require expensive add on pcm's to be able to tune tables in real time.

We've also created dozen of walk through demo's to get you introduced to many parts of tuning & using our software which can be found here https://www.performancetrucks.net/fo...46&postcount=9

EFILive is great too, you can't go wrong with either. Look at the licensing options for both and pic the one that works for you.

PS, this has been asked A LOT! Search a little, and you will find a ton of reading on it

I have EFI and so far I like it alot, I like how the table are set up vs HPT but then again I havent spent alot of time with HPT and Ive got a couple hours playing around with EFI and EFI has more tables for the diesels so that was the main factor for me.
