Default What to do about tuning.

I've been tossing around the idea to tune my rig. But there seems to be alot of options out there as of tuners. Superchips, Diablo sport, etc..
Which is recommended? Which is better than the other?

I need to get a little bit more power out of my jeep.
I have 2010 Rubicon with 3.8L motor an Airaid cold air intake, Viper throttle body and flowmaster exhaust.
Im currently using an AEV procal.

I just I stalled a Superchips Traildash. The setting that come with this tuner gave me more power and much better shift points. I have a '07 JKU auto. I can't say anything about the other tuners but this one is great.

Superchips seem to have the best track record. I love mine. Even having a 6 spd, I noticed enough overall improvement from the Superchip only to make me wish I'd bought one much sooner. Haven't noticed any +or- in mpg's

Superchips Vivid for me. It has definitely increased the performance, and made the Jeep more driveable. I like the real time guages and data logging feature, and the best part is I can tune it and monitor the engine from my phone.
