I wasn't in the towing mode, nor would that have any effects on the brakes... the brakes just seemed really "touchy" after.

Might have just been the pucker factor.

Like your mind was still hauling a load but yer truck wasn't.

It definatly was a pucker factor... damn thing was huge. Never found out how big it was, and it wasn't the fact of driving around with something so big (I drive those big ladder trucks everyday at work, when you can swing your rear end 15 feet from a dead stop, that is a pucker factor, I can take out a car two lanes over with a $20,000 bucket... its been replaced a couple times, never because of me, usually someone rearending the rig). I was more worried because I don't know how much weight the class 1V hitch on a 2500 can handle. I think the dry weight of the trailer was 9000 or so, and there was a ton of **** in it.

No idea about the Turn signals, thats a new one on me.
Did you get the most current update downloadedin the tuner?
Did you change any other settings? Speed or Rev limiters?
Check yer stock Tire Size (in the Tuner) I bet it says 31.25 & you prolly have 33s
What did you set yer shift points at?
