Default Flashpaq lack of tunes?

Hey guys, bought a flashpaq from someone on here, and updated it via web, obviously. Plugged it in, and it only gives me 4 tunes:
91 Performance
Towing
87 octane
Mileage xs

I take the 87 octane as one that simply allows you to use 87 if you were supposed to run 91 or something.
I would like the 87 performance tune.
right Now i'm running the 91 and WOW is it a difference!!!
I never thought you would get that much from a tuner!!!

Try the tow tune. that is a good one. You can run 87 octane gas with no problems.

Tow tune is my favorite of them all. It makes normal driving fun and it makes it a beast when when towing of course.

Same here, only run the tow tune! Low end is so responsive!

I went back to 91 tune and have been loving it with all TM at 8%. (Trans tune upgrade)

I know you're big on MPGs, I think the absolute best mileage I got was from the 91 tune and stock trans schedule with 8% TM. I'm sure you'd get around the same from the 87
