I'm assuming from another post 87 octane is what comes stock and I don't need to no anything? (not to savvy on timing) I want my set up as simple as possible so I'm hoping it's just open the box plug/download and be done. I'm driving a pretty much stock set up with the addition of a flowmaster muffler so I don't need to change for gears or larger tires intake etc.

man "o" man am I getting excited!
Yes - you're correct and glad you're getting excited! The trucks are factory designed to burn 87 octane gas. If you leave the tune at stock or load ANY canned or custom tune, the timing will be set properly for 87 octane gas. I also simply used the 87 octane Tow tune for everything before I got my custom tunes. Now I have and 87 octane tune for towing and an 87 octane tune for when I'm not towing. I have NEVER loaded Level 3 into my truck at all.

When you load your tune, simply bypass the "Custom Options" choice and you'll be good to go!

- Jack
