Combining Tunes

[soutthpaw]

I didn't read the link cody posted as I'm on my BB. However an all in one is much more doable on a manual tranny vs automatics.
I just made a tune though that combines features of a couple of bills tunes. 75hp FS with 80 perf. Along with my timing mods for altitude and some expermential tweaking of reduced pulse width and increased ICP in the highway crusing range.
The goal is an increased cruising mpg with the throttle response of the perf tunes. Like cody I don't care for the lazy throttle on stock and FS. But the lower shift points work for me. Also copied the stock TC duty cycle map from stock due to weird Shift issues I posted about a while back on FS. Its in this forum. You really can't make a performance and tow tune together.
I just ran a full tank of fuel with the chip removed to get a baseline and reminder of stock so I can compare the 2.
If you have a pyro gauge u can use a higher hp tune towing but u need to watch the temps if u r into the throttle a lot or on a long climb. to a point the various hp tunes are all about protecting people from themselves so they don't destroy their engine inadvertently.

I actually dropped the smoke and 140hp cuz I almost never used them. That way I have more slots for other tunes.
As of yet I really haven't noticed a significant mpg difference across all tunes inc stock. Pretty much average 16mpg and 2 mpg either side of that.
