Email Sean Powell at hemifever@aol.com

He will set you up with 3 canned tunes for 265 shipped.

By the way, using the SCT tuner with the 93 tune along with the removal of the torque management system will theoretically help the longevity of your truck provided everything else is in tip top shape. If you haven't already you might want to consider doing a full tune up and making sure your plenum is squared away.

Talked to the guy.. said he can fix me up 3 prog for 265,, not bad..
When they say firm up the shift points............ would that make it yank when shifts?
I mainly want this programmer for towing .. but DO NOT want to or can I afford to run premium fuel,.

It will firm up the shifts (allows less slipping between gears) which will actually help your trans last longer..... (less wear on the clutches.)

depends on the tune I have loaded, run regular gas(87oct) with both the 87oct tune and the 91oct tune, and run premium(93oct) with the 93 oct tune.

I can get away with the 91oct tune with reg gas some cant
