That part is true. I was really hoping it wasn't snake oil. I wonder where that 49HP and 59 TQ they promised is.

Too bad I didn't have the death flash :P

I just compared the towing tune with the performance tune, and it seems to have noticeably more grunt with the towing tune. Is this just in my head?

I fired off an email to Superchips to see what they have to say. Oh, should I be able to use the monitor function? The unit says "No CAN available, vehicle not supported" when I try to fire up the monitoring tools.

Unless they changes something this year, I got more back than last, It was no 8 months tax free, but I was in Bahrain for 1.5 months and got more back this year than last. I would usually only get about 400 back if I was lucky and I got right a 900 this years after fees.

My truck does have the PCM re-program sticker under the hood, so that means death flash right?

I just picked up a 3815 tonight.

It was on craigslist for $150!!!
The guy thought it was only for 04-05 hemi's and that's what he put in the ad.

The only downside is that I had to drive 75 miles to get it.

I installed the 91 tune ( had a tankfull of 93) and like the others have said, it seems easier to keep speed in the highway, and the TC not locking until around 50.

Before the drive, I reset the MPG computer and I got 15.5 on the way there, but I did hit a little traffic, which drove the number down a little.

On the way back I reset it again and got 17.4 on the way back. (but I also did floor it a few times on the way back)

I just now adjusted the tire size to 31.75 for my 265's (stock size)
