The BDX™ module improves fuel economy; testimonials given by testers mention significant increases in fuel economy. These modules improve fuel economy by improving the efficiency of the fuel that is used; therefore, the rapid power module allows the vehicle to produce the same power as stock using less fuel. Improvements in fuel economy are dependent upon driver habits and vehicle application.

Bully Dog® was formed in 1998 in Aberdeen, Idaho. The founders of Bully Dog – Michael, Phillip, and Daryl Klassen - were heavily influenced by their father Harold's interest in improving vehicle performance. Several years prior to the company's inception, Harold had experimented with increasing performance on his diesel farm tractor by injecting propane into the engine's combustion chamber. In 1998, Bully Dog's owners took this concept and developed and patented a safe and effective propane injection system to enhance diesel engine performance. These systems were first sold out of their farm shop, but as demand increased, they moved the company to another location and officially organized Bully Dog. Bully Dog's mission was now to be recognized as the leader in the diesel performance industry. With the introduction of electronic components and software to improve performance, they began to research new types of products like intake and exhaust systems to complement their electronic components. In 2005, the company expanded its range of products to include performance products for gasoline-powered vehicles. Bully Dog is now able to offer a complete performance package.

Messed Up Vehicle
Bully Dog® 40470 - BDX™ Handheld Programmer
I purchased this for a 2017 Yukon as recommended by BD. First the Yukon was not in the preprogrammed options, I called BD and they said to use the Suburban program. After I loaded the program the vehicle did not act right. I got several service soon, prompts that would not go away. It change the tone of the reverse camera and I lost the warning from vehicles approaching from the side. Second, I reset it back to factory and all the service soon prompts stayed and I lost all my pulling power. I pull a boat every weekend, down the highway able to do 75 up hills. on those same hill I can not go any faster then 60. I finally had to take it into the GMC to get it fixed. Third, I called around to the listed custom tuners on the BD site, and all of them are not messing with tuning anymore due to the EPA. So now I have a 300 dollar paperweight.

Overall, Solid Product
Bully Dog® 40470 - BDX™ Handheld Programmer
Had some problems installing it. The instructions were not included. When I finally downloaded them, they weren’t always helpful. The device itself has an easy to use and read interface. A lot of options, and that’s great. Performance improvements are evident. More horsepower and torque and a slight improvement in mileage.
