I would call Bully Dog directly. I have one and it seems every few months they are adding more motors that they work with. They might have something coming in the near future for yours.

I don't think they do, however there is always ddec to adjust any parameters you want. anyone who knows what they are doing can give you better economy and more power. I do it for owner ops all the time.

There is another company from across the pond that sells a product similar, does a lot with horsepower and torque across a whole range, from the bottom to the top, all 3 engines including the DD16. If I remember later, I will post the name, there is also a company that does injection pumps that were electronically controlled, like on Mack, and John Deere. That one is Timic if I remember right, if that isn't right, correct it, please.
It seems since the DD16 came out that they have cut the ratings on the DD15. I think horsepower may be cut to 530 maximum , and torque to 1750 ft. lbs.
I have the bottom end DD15 and the sticker says it will go to 560 horsepower and 1850 ft. lbs. torque. It has been almost a year since the build date of late June 2012. -
When I had a quote done on a western star it was DD15 engine in the truck but they list it as a DD16 due to the spec output. I am pretty sure it was rated at 560hp.
