Mopar PCM.

I have heard more good things about the Mopar PCM than anything else.

If you have a 1998-2000, the Mopar PCM is the best way to go.

If you've got a 2001+, the B&G PCM flash seems to be the most aggressive and comprehensive flash available thus far, but it's also the most expensive.

Any feedback from the Hypertech guys whether the bang for the buck was worth it? All I ever saw was a bunch of complaints about the calibration tables and scores of people having to send theirs back...

I've had both and definitely prefer the Hypertech. It was far superior to the Mopar PCM. Just my opinion. Do a search and you will see my results. It is titled power programmer installed, and was posted about 4-6 weeks ago. Hope this helps.

Love the hypertech! With the mods I have already made a big difference. I had to wait for the hypertech because mopar doesn't make a pcm for my truck. 97 5.2L auto.

Brad... you have what I have (97 5.2 auto). What mods do you have and what improvements did you notice with the HyperTech? I have installed Mopar headers, DynoMax catback, 3.90 gears, removed fan (installed electric fan), and K&N filter. Performance is only a little better and mileage is actually worse (17 before mods; 15.75 now).

I have been very happy with my MOPAR PCM. By the way I have a 97 5.2L auto so they do have a MOPAR PCM for your truck Brad, but if you are happy with the Hypertech...good.
