I was thinking of getting a Hydra, but the no-start feature is just another position, and frankly I'm not crazy about that. I was thinking of buying a F6 now that it's open source so I could use two different tuners on it and try that route. I tried a TS chip recently (not gonna get into the "who's tunes?" discussion), but really did not like the rotary switch I suppose because I was used to the DP controller. Now that I have done some performance upgrades, I've gotten tired of pulling my chip out and sending it back. Having two of them didn't cause the mail it and hurry up and wait hassle.I have had a DP F5 for about 4 years and have come to like the usability of the controller, especially the 0 position no start feature. I am on the hunt for another something to drive, and if it winds up being a 7.3 again will use a TS style on it also.

Only advantage i saw was emailing tunes if trying to iron out problems. I just preferred the old style switch, thought it looked cleaner as well.

Ive come across a few threads on the multiple sites along the same lines but if recollection serves me right want to say it was all the way files were written as well, not a hydra problem, you'd think everyone wrote ( format)them the same way though. I didnt have any PHP tunes on it but they were moree than happy to help when i had questions after first getting it. I think it was the way the files were written and that's what the tuner told me as well when i asked why it threw multiple CEL for a few seconds as well as an idle stumble then would be fine with no lights, wont go into the who's and all but it stumbled for sure with multiple tuners stuff when going from one tuners to the next. It was ok I'm not bashing it by any means.
