Yes right now on mine I have the 87oct tow 91oct tow and 93oct tow , when you order your tuner form Mike He will need lots of info about your truck and what you do with it he will then write costume tunes for your truck based on what you do with it.

I have a SCT tuner with tunes from 5 Star tuning. The difference is amazing. I highly recommend contacting Mike at 5 Star.
