Huh? I'll be the first to tell anyone that nobody's tunes are perfect and that nobody can overcome physical hardware limitations regardless of what is promised by a tuning company.
I'm too damn honest to be a salesperson. That's why I keep my PHP job as a cubicle jockey.

I will start by saying that if your EGT is high now (or hard to keep below 1200 degrees), then don't even consider "larger" injectors for towing. If you want more power, we can certainly do that. Just don't expect to tow anything with more RWHP than what you are making now. The additional power can be used for short bursts on a 1995-1997 truck, but you'll find that EGT climbs like a mad chief when more fuel is introduced. Heck, last week I had one heck of a time with my 1995 while towing 6500 lbs. in 95 degree heat on a tune that is marginally more powerful than stock; I'd venture to guess 40-50 HP, but it's a new tune and I haven't put the truck on a dyno with that tune yet.
I'm thinking of sending in the AA injectors in the 1995 to have some 80% nozzles put on them. EGT is the reason. It's perfectly logical to expect a slight EGT reduction with larger nozzles (to a point) since I don't plan on doing anything else to the stock truck.
