Towing in HP mode?!?!
I had to do about 600 miles of freeway towing today (about 6500-7000lbs) and I didn't get a chance to swap in some tow tunes on my FU beforehand. I did all my driving in the mildest tune I had which was the 80+HP setting. I was just wondering if this could be harmful?
Maybe it's just me, but when towing my truck felt a lot more sluggish and took quite a bit of time getting up to speed(but I was trying to avoid going above 1000F EGT). Could this be a result of towing in the 80+HP tune or is it in my head? I feel like there should be a lot more get-up-and-go since this truck is rated upwards of 20k.
