Default Has anyone tried the Bully Dog GT or Nissan Power Pup tuner?

There seems to be a long thread on g35driver about this. It allows different maps for regular or premium fuel, timing and idle changes, top speed limiter removed on auto models, the ability to update online, etc. It's popular with the Titan users. Is it too good to be true? What are your thoughts? http://www.bullydog.com/product/inde...uct_detail/289

Done. Quick search did nothing here, advanced search is much better. Sounds like a waste of money.

I got it I think they need to improve the update agent that they have set for this tool. I had to call a Bully Dog Tech for the right tune. I notice a nice change to how my car performs but recently I set it back to stock for now.

Any reason as to why you set it back to stock? At least you have that option. A lot of people on driver express frustration to the lack of updates available depending on the ECU you have. There should be a way to determine compatibility based on VIN# or something. Also, I don't believe there are people who have actually dyno tested before and after. Also nobody really knows how mod friendly this device is. Have you at least done some passes on the drag strip? How about logging your MPG from tank to tank?
