See when I ORDERED all I did was tell bill what I did to the truck. But since I wasn't "towing" didn't think I needed to worry. ya know since we all want some performance from the big 8. I was more concerned about mileage .Guess I probally should have just kept asking.
Now don't get me wrong, the 87 perf has woken up the motor just fine,But I wonder if I am gettign better mpg's on 87 tow should I just put it there? and was the 87 perf a miss use of my money. Not a waste.. cause its fun to have.
There's nothing at all wrong with using the tow tune as your daily driving tune. Until I got a "highway" tune, it's the only tune I used.

As far as a "misuse" of money, only you can answer that. I've noticed how people's priorities seem to change with the price of a gallon of gas. Maybe we'll get lucky and it will drop again!
