tuner
And to you Raptor7, I just got my Superchips Cortex, and Im pretty impressed.
I run the 91 Octane tune, and there is definetly more power with better shift points. I was a little disappointed that I still cant peel out going straight from a stop sign, but the rear end gets loose a lot easier on corners. Its kind of fun to fish tail around a dry corner without even having to floor it and watch peoples jaws drop that are near by. And for the shift points while just driving in the city, they seem to go a little high, but its not like I can keep my foot out of it anyways. But its very simplistic, and they have some cool features to play around with like the 1-2 and 2-3 WOT shift points, and also the rev limiter so you can do some tuning to your liking. Nothing for shift firmness yet though
.... maybe soon. Good luck!

Trucky, I have to get all my fun out now. When I get my exhaust installed, I have a feeling I will have to behave until Friday night comes around.
Lghtngblt02, I did update the tuner right away before putting it on my truck. I was really nervous about messing up my truck, so anything that instruction manual said, I did. I saw the links for all the features. I was going to do some data logging after I got out of night class in the parking lot to get my 0-60 time, but it said my vehical wasnt compatible. I think I have to download the data log program off the update page. I did mess around with my rev limiter, increased the top speed to 140, and changed the 1-2 shift point. Out of curiosity, what do you keep your setting on?

I was so depressed when it said the program wasnt there to data log with my truck. I just wanted to do a 0-60 time to get an idea of how fast it really is. It looks like Ill have a weekend project.
I wish I still had my radar detector ..... I sold it so I could get more stuff for the truck. And now I speed more with it gone.

Ah, I might get laughed at for my times, but I think they would be interesting to know. Its not like its a slow sports car, its a truck. They arent supposed to be fast. I just like to suprise people when they want to up their hyndai against it.

with all the changes that the tuner does to the truck...are you guys having to get additional items to compensate for it. for instance rengnath, you said it increased your top speed to 140. did you have to buy a new gauge bezel for your truck? and did you also change your octane to a higher grade?
