Hello - newbie here with friend that has efi live and usually does diesels. Any suggestions for a tune. I've heard that whipple's plug and play isn't that great. 4200 ft altitude if that matters. Everything else stock. Thanks in advance.

Post the tune file
also do you have WB ?
what supporting mods ? plugs ? fuel system ?
Suggestions? Do either of you have ANY experience in calibrating gas engines?
If I did not have good experince i would not offer help

Thanks for the replies guys. I just have some basic engine knowledge. My friend has pulled my stock tune and is going to look at tweaking before I go on a road trip. I won't have the charger until the end of the month. From what I understand whipple sends a module to flash the scan to their specs. I'll ask my buddy to do some research in the meantime also. Do you suggest waiting for whipple's flash, then pull the tune again to post it? The whipple tech told me the kit comes with a fuel system booster, no new pump and they go by my vin to figure out if it needs different injectors and so far I don't know any further on it. Everything else is stock for now. I'm just trying to get some advice ahead of time. I'm also working with a local shop that has done quite a bit of performance engine building and worked with bigger blowers. They do have snap-on scanners for every day stuff but trying to work with my friend on a final tune. I'm not looking to race it, mainly some more power and torque for pulling without the extra heat of a turbo and I'm still a bit of a kid and might turn a tire over here and there. After laying down six large on the charger things are a bit tight. I just want it smooth without much chance of going lean (heat's the enemy - maybe some hold over two stroke paranoia). Any help is greatly appreciated.
Couple other details that might help - truck is 07 2500hd with 6.0 - charger is a whipple 2.3
