Yep, but there is a whole bunch of Aussie, European and Filipino friends in this Forum. Needles to say, this is a Ranger Raptor thread. Hope someone chime in ?
Its always better for an actual tune, even stock can be tuned better. I went with the DP Chip bc of the feedback that people have used them for years with no issue. They keep them with in a safe perimeter and don't push beyond that. However you can get a tune with it and get every last drop out of the the engine. No one local I trust for that though. I don't remember all the values/settings you can go through. I put it on standard and forgot about it, and throw the bypass on if it goes to the dealer. If they wanted to they can still say what they want, its more for setting back to stock so they can properly diagnose other issues.
The air filter for me personally, I keep stock, bc you wont gain much of anything unless you go way over factory HP. Its dirty here, so I need all protection I can get. Maybe where you are no need to worry about it, you may have cleaner air there. The high flow filters will usually allow more dirt in, but gives you a better sound and maybe a little gain that you wont really notice.
This assumption is wrong, there are a lot of recordings that logs various engine parameters. Your dealer will know.

According to DPchip suplier this is not true. No recordings will be tracked using this device.
The recording is not done by the DPChip (or any other for the matter), but by the car's ECU. The way any powerbox makes more power is to inject different values than the sensors are normally sending to the ECU, which may look abnormal, so the ECU may log them as faults. However, the dealer may not distinguish them from an honest fault, at least not from the first attempt.
