PPE Programmer

I have a stock 2007 Duramax classic. I recently ordered a PPE Economy programmer for my truck. I don't want to damage anything, including the tranny, so what setting should I use.

Setting #1 additional 40 hp
Setting #2 90 hp
Setting #3 125 hp

I do tow a travel trailer about 4-5 times a year (weight 7500lbs)

thanks

My main concern is the tranny, I don't want to damage anything. I'm new to the whole programmer thing.

you are fine with that one stock tranny will hold somewhere around 90 to 120 horse's to the rear wheels ppe programmers are rated at the flywheel so a 40 horse tune minus 20% is all you will see at the rear wheel

yeah it will work great no problems but if you want added insurance to settle your mind get a trans-go jr. and put it in and it will be awesome
