I hear ya, but it would be nice to know the numbers, IE 30hp 35TQ increase on 93 tune. You know, something like that.

I always take aftermarket gain claims with a grain of salt. I mean they're in FLA at sea level. I am assuming it is still pretty warm and humid there. I am in Va a good bit off of the coast (~700 ft. asl). It's been cooling down here. Bottom line is that it is a canned tune. I literally just got my Trinity (10 min. ago). Provided they get the update posted soon, I am going to try to get to a tuner in the next two weeks. I'll post up stock #'s, 93 #'s, and the #'s for whatever the tuner comes up with. I will also post up seat of the pants speculation as soon after the update is posted.

Yep, I have tuner in hand waiting anxiously for the tune! I am salivating on my desk with the thought of tuning my truck! However anxious I am though I would rather wait and have the tune not have bugs or what not than get a buggy tune.

87 octane tune runs strong. I really feel the difference in shift points. can't wait for the next tank of gas and test the 93 octane.
Mike do you plan on releasing dyno numbers to the 93 octane?

i hope so id really like to see what this thing is doing... hey FL09RAMSPORT hows the shift firmness with the 87 tune... will it chirp the tires when going from 1st to 2nd in your truck? Just wondering i know my 05 would grab 2nd pretty damn good. thanks

it definatly has more power but no way enough to chip the tires. The TM on these trucks sucks.

I'm running 93 tune right now. Definitely a difference from 87 but still no chirping of tires.

I do not have the MSD disabled since it does not effect anything at WOT. I love the shifting. Currently shifting at 5800 rpms and very firm.
Off the line there is still some lagging but the truck really takes off after 2000 to 2500 rpms.
I can spin the tires with minimal brake, cannot do it with out using the break.
On the 87 tune mileage is maybe 1/2 mile per gallon better then stock. On 93 I can't tell yet since I am stabbing it every chance I get, lol.
