Default Just got my FU chip. 2 quick qestions

1. Should I start the truck in a Stock Tune setting or is it OK to start in the other tunes? Any I should avoid starting in?

2. Install the software on a Laptop or Desktop? I have the option to install on a new-ish desktop or an older laptop. I plan on cutting the PCM cover so I can easily remove the chip. The Desktop is the better of the computers. Would it be of a benefit to be able to reflash the chip while on a trip from my laptop without access to my desktop or is this something that really I'd never do? Maybe in an emergency? I guess I could always pull the chip and go back to stock.

thanks, Bryce

It's more convenient to have it installed on the laptop, of course, but it's totally up to you! (If you'd like it on both, let us know, and Bill can send you a second registration code!)

thanks, Bryce
Sounds like you're having fun!

I got my chip in this afternoon. It's awesome! Really woke my truck up.
I need to come run it on the dyno again. I'll see about coming to the shop at the next dyno day.
