I can't tell you what YOU SHOULD run, but I'll tell you what I run:

Defuel:
Boost: 32
EGT 1: 1350
Low Coolant: 140
Hot coolant: 220

I only use pyro 1... I think Pyro 2 on the unit is if you get the optional pyro sensor and install it.

be carefull on like the boost defuel, it will go over that setting. found that out when i had it set at around 36psi defuel and i was pushing low 40's psi. also alot of guys say when towing select the no power setting on whichever tune your running and select the tow/haul and that will run the stock trans settings which is best, BUT dont run the tow haul in the higher power settings. my question is which trans setting is best if you do not want to run the tow/ haul?. also with tow/haul selected will it allow the trans to go into overdrive?

S1 is best for towing and yes the OD is used in tow haul mode.

been doing some reading... just want to make sure... I don't need a pyrometer to monitor EGT's correct? to my understanding the 6.4's have them built in and the mini maxx is able to read them... this is correct, right? also.. whats the big price differences about? I see the tuner for around 900, and then on a different site I see the same tuner, just the tuner by it's self for 1500?? whats the deal with that? whats the difference?

I suspect that the difference is how quickly vendors update their prices, or those who still have stock are prepared to sell it at the original price and not jacked up due to no more supply and an increase in demand.
