About Bully Dog
Bully Dog Tuners
When looking to add power and fuel economy to any diesel truck, typically the first thing that comes to mind, or is recommended, is to install a diesel programmer or chip. Unbeknownst to many, adding horsepower can and WILL deliver additional MPG's, so you can basically have your cake and eat it too! But how? Simply put, unless you consistently drive aggressively, having the extra power will make the job of moving your 8,000+ pound truck easier, hence not having to work as hard.
But now, which one is right for you? Bully Dog Diesel has been in the diesel performance tuning industry since 1998 producing various Bully Dog Tuners and have gained loads of notoriety for their various devices and tunes over the years. For anyone that's been affiliated whatsoever in the industry for some time will remember the days of the Power Pup and Crazy Larry tune files that delivered unparalleled ground pounding torque. But from those days, Bully Dog Performance Chips have come a long ways in terms of tuning and the devices which carry those tunes. With intuitive tuners and monitors such as the GTX and BDX devices to tune your truck that feature WiFi connectivity for easy updates to their GTX Watchdog for gauges and diagnostic troubleshooting, and everything in between, Bully Dog Performance has a solution for every need.
And guess what, Bully Dog isn't merely limited to programmers. Seeing that the industry needed a lifetime serviceable DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) that outflowed the factory units at a comparable price, Bully Dog went to work and released their line of Performance DPF's that allow you to have the added power you want, without all of the headaches. If Big Rigs are your thing, the Bully Dog Big Rig division is for you. With advanced tuning, turbo upgrades, manifolds, and more for Caterpillar, Detroit, and Cummins ISX, you'll gain the extra power your semi needs, plus the extra fuel economy that will deliver a nice dividend each month. Especially if you're an owner-operator that's looking to reduce expenses, the ROI on these upgrades is impressive, coupled with the fact you'll be passing the rest of the pack up those grades.

The Bullydog GT really opened up the power in my 2014 Dodge Ram 2500 cummins
NTBSOT
Great product. Simple install. Noticeable power and performance. I like the defueling, comes in handy here in Texas when it's blasted hot out and your running the heck out of the truck.
Brad
I keep the Bully Dog on my truck at all times. Never had a problem with it, and being able to change the mode with the touch of a button is awesome. Easy to install and use. Have recommended to several people.
Aaron
Easy install. Customer service was great. Having had it long but can feel the difference when towing.
Jennifer
Bullydog gt tuner works great on my 08 dodge 2500 6.7l. The power levels are perfect for what I use it for. Towing heavy loads on the tow tune are much better. The truck rarely downshifts going up hills unlike before without the tuner it would run out of power. I recommend the bullydog gt diesel tuner to anyone the a diesel truck!

Don't waste your money on bullydog
"I paid for this product only to have issues downloading the "new" program as the device did not come pre-programmed as it should have, especially seeing as i provided vehicle info upon ordering. This product should have arrived with the correct program. Also, good luck getting any customer or tech support as I tried repeatedly to do that as well, was sent links to forums and chat rooms or worse, sent to a chat bot and not a live person who could actually assist me. I tbe end I realized that bullydog does not stand by their products and I will never buy or use their products again. ZERO stars."

Q&A
Can you adjust transmission shifts
Not with this device.
Does the ECM or computer need to be updated for it to work correctly with a stock 06 dodge 5.9 cummins
No, nothing will need to be updated or changed. These will be a direct plug-n-play option for those platforms.
I wanna just hook it up with an obd2 cable? Does it come with one or whats the deal with that? I dont wanna use the cloud
Yes, this is going to come with an OBD2 cable.
I have a 2015 Ram 2500 with the 6.7 Cummins. My question is does this tuner offer any transmission tuning?
This particular product does not offer transmission tuning.
My vin number doesn't match the numbers you show.Mine is 1GHDT13S522242442
Hi there, we don't specify a VIN for this product. That said, looking up your VIN, it shows to be an Oldsmobile Bravada which this product will not work for as its specific to diesel vehicles.
