Man what a diffrence this made. I havent had a chance to drive much yet. I downloaded the 87 tune.Idles better, shifts better. Runs so much better. I will try the other tunes when time allows. Will check fuel milage as well since i just filled up.

265 bucks for three tunes, with the tuner. Plug and play. Nothing else needs to happen. (well, maybe a 180* thermostat....)

Does the 180 stat make THAT much of a difference? I have the sct tunner and a 195 stat and it still hauls ***.

I just put in the 180 and I don't like it. Not enough heat from the heater.

A lot of people here run a 195 stat during the winter for that reason, then switch to a 180 stat during the summer.

I am running a 195 thermo right now. I am real curious as to what diffrence a 180 will make. I am going to change as soon as the weather breaks. Does any one have experiance on running a 195 with the tune compared to 180?

did you make sure you got all the air out of the system, our trucks are a pain in the *** to do for some reason, and if you dont get it all out you can be stuck with sub par heat. Going from a 180 to 195 thermostat should not make that big of a difference in heat output.
