Yeah, you can switch it all you want. No harm there.

Instead of changing all six tunes at once, I will work with the one (or two) until it's running smoothly. THEN I will apply those changes to the rest of the programming (saves a lot of time that way!)

Let me know how it drives to work.

It drove great cody. I had the ac on pulled up to a light it was nice and hot. The idle was good not shaking the truck like it was but it seemed it was trying to idle like it was very lightly. I would like one more of whatever you did and will compare both tunes. Is there anything specific I should look for cody?

Try it again. I did all 6 tunes this time (v2 files).

I pulled up the the tunes and clicked refresh cal list. List looked the same so I loaded the tunes and clicked burn. First tune burned then said error tune not available contact power hungry or something like that :-). What am I missing cody?

Also cody im looking for a tune like the 80dd tune but with firmer shifts. It seems that if I hit the gas hard at 65 or 70 it want to shift out of over drive. Also have lots of mountain hills. Will the 100hp race tune do that? Or any race tune? I have heard of people using the race tunes as a Dd because I do alot of freeway driving and the race tunes get good fuel economy with freeway driving.

Ps she's driving and idling awesome.

The 4-3 downshift at anything below 72-74 MPH is normal. That's the way the factory shift points are set up and those are the shift strategies that the daily driver tunes use.

The "race" tunes will do that too...and even more so in some cases because the downshifts are commanded at an even lower accelerator pedal position for a given road speed.

The "economy" is purely relative and subjective. Maybe, maybe not. Buying something for mileage is a sure way to never recoup the money invested.
