Power Chip in tow vehicle
Considering putting Econo Mind Diesel Tuner & Banks IQ 2.o in my 2004 Dodge 3500 Dually. Has anyone ever done this and did you get satisfactory results with power and increased mileage?

Smarty is THE way to go for you '04 5.9L CTD!!! You can make a lot more power and do it more safely than with most other programmers. You can improve fuel economy considerably too... but doing that is entirely dependent upon the performance of your right foot. :W
I would not consider any tuner that increased rail pressure (e.g. the Economind)
If you don't already have them, I suggest adding EGT & boost gauges. As other people have mentioned, more power can be tough on the stock transmission so you may want to think upgrading the tranny first.
Before you spend a penny on engine upgrades you may want to spend a few days reading through the forum archives on the Dodge-centric sites like Diesel Truck Resource and Turbo Diesel Registry.
