I agree, I am runnin my PPE on level 5 (220HP). This is not the best thing to do if you are pretty hard on the truck and you defintely have to watch the 4-5 5-4 shifts or you might regret it. Anything over a 120HP tune, or about 90HP at the rear wheels, is defintely pushing your luck. A shift kit will help handle some extra power but if you want to go hardcore then a stage IV or V suncoast tranny may be in order.
