17 Silverado 6.2 8 speed

Post by Sloverado »

I'm wondering when you guys will have one out. I've called a couple times and keep getting the same reply. In a week or 2. Is there any more updates yet?

its not as simple as its been in the past since GM does not want you to tune your truck these days. We had to do quite a bit of extra work to make it all happen, looking at a release soon, hopefully a week out.

Aww another week again from the week and a half ago lol. Now if you guys can tune the 8 speed this wait might just be worth it. But just motor tune won't help me much. I hate the 8 speed shifting.

unfortunately the only solution for actually tuning tcm that I have seen requires removing the tcm from the truck and sending it out to be modified for some fee, then reinstalling it and paying for additional credits to tune it. If theres a way to do it without removing the tcm, we'll find it.

they are the same tunes currently, gains are the same. Just different options for the user on each tool, with Diablo having more user adjustable options.
