Tunes

Truck is at the shop gettin "bulletproofed" so not I am looking to get a SCT tuner. Do you all have any tunes you suggest. I am not trying to do anything like race. Although, I would love a lope tune, heard it kills the injectors off though, bummer...

Cheers,

There are so many, but I love Innovative Diesel Performance tunes. I can also recommend GearHead tunes specifically the SRL. These are the only companies I've tried so I can't recommend anyone else based on experience.
Good luck.

Give me a week or two. I should be able to let you know how I like the ones I ordered from Matt at GearHead.
Because I already know what flash is in my truck they are going to load it for me and not have to wait for it.
I am going with the basic set of tunes that Matt does for a non-studed 6.0L.

I am looking forward to the FedEx/UPS driver this week I'll do a little report on it.

I have the standard Looney Tune and then a Looney Mild. Compared to the SCT canned tunes, the Looney Tune is like steroids and the Looney Mild is in-between the canned Street tune and the canned Performance tune.

OK cool! Does the Looney Tune produce a lot of smoke?

It will make a pretty good haze when WOT, it isn't a "rollin' coal" tune by any means.

Super Panty Dropper is regarded as a fun tune

I love my SRL-Lite tune (non-studded). The SRL+ is widely regarded in the 6.0 community. At some point I'll get a set of studs and try the SRL+ out

I just got my buddy hooked up with Matt and his SRL and now when you mash the pedal the truck GOES. Especially with the Powermax I helped him install.

LOL, this is what you meant a little while ago when you told me I have to "turn up the tune". Where do I get SRL tunes from...I am guessing the SRL+ is for studded trucks?

SRL is for Studded and non-studded trucks, SRL+ and SRL++ is for studded trucks.
