I'd be willing to bet the majority of the difference you notice is in the tcm tune because the truck is already WAY snappier.
I'm gonna be pretty happy with it I bet. I'm happy so far.

With how it is acting now I think I still want to upgrade gear sets tho.

Yes. IMO I don't think the ECM tune is very dramatic compared to the trans tune. Makes me want to try it without the TCM tune tho, just to see how much difference

Glad you're liking it. If you do the gears I'll be really interested on your feedback after installing them.

The truck is really peppy now I'm happy.
I just wish it was quicker off the line.

I raced my buddies hemi single cab today and it DESTROYED me off the line.

The 3.08s aren't really good for anything I do.

I don't drive highway ever. I think going to 3.73 will improve my MPGs dramatically because I won't have to get on it as long and ill get to 6th faster.

Blazed you do realize this is only a tune right?

If you really want to be fast on the line do all minor and major bolt ons.

Yes I realize this is just a tune Marcus. I'm not a dumb ass. I just figured torque management was slowing me down off the line.

I know how a car works. I know what makes it fast and what makes it quick.

you did move over the swaybar to the right correct? drivers side 1 inch over on the mount? just shoot me email ill get you a new one but I see this when people dont move the bar over 1 inch and then it hits the panhard bracket and breaks the endlink.

also now they come with zerk fittings since i Talked to djm about it after they saw i was doing the zerks for local guys on the endlnks. That helps a lot also keeping it quiet and lubbed.

Shoot me pm of order date Ill get a new one coming.
