I believe I read in a post from Bill a while back that the tow tune runs a little richer than a regular tune. If that is the case, would it be a good idea for those with a commercial CAI and concerned about a lean condition to use the canned tow tune while waiting for their custom tunes?

YES! Recently, I've even started putting that information on customer's invoices. By its nature, the tow tune runs richer, so it should help with the lean condition until you get your custom tunes. Just try not to keep your foot on the floor... If you could keep it ½ throttle and above, it would be even better. Of course, that's not always possible... just as a general rule. :)

Corey, did you possibly mean "or below"? I'd hate to drive around everywhere at full throttle - might get a few tickets. :happy-dancing:

You could do it Jack, just going to spend more money on brakes

Funny Lars! Kinda reminds me of a time in San Antonio back in the 70s when we had a rare snowstorm and I was driving to work. The streets were, of course nice and icy, but I grew up in the mountains so I sort of know how to deal with it. However, there was this one guy, who clearly drives with one foot on the gas pedal and the other on the brake. The brake lights were on, the front wheels were locked up and the rears were turning. He had a kind of "panicked" look on his face, because his car was wandering all over the road. I got around him as quickly as I could.

Just avoid the cars with the wrinkled fenders. They obviously have no idea how to handle slick conditions. :)
