That would be me. FYI, my traction control was disabled as far as I know how to disable it. Push and hold the button for approximately 8-9 seconds. As you can see, it's still there. But it did leave two nice black marks on the highway. I will agree I think it might shift a little too soon. They sent me an updated tune tonight, but they didn't say what was actually altered. I was able to drive it, but no spirited driving due to rain and wet roads. These trucks tuned will get sideways extremely easy on wet roads, even just easing into the throttle at 65+ mph lol.
Awesome, Be sure to post a short review, you going with ngauage???
There is a guy running patriots "600 file" on army, just got it loaded, see his videos below

I can tell the trans is tuned, I see much less wasted power, would have liked to seen the run with traction control off. Seems to be shifting a bit early to me...but hard to tell wihtout feeling it. What do you think?
I installed my SOTF switch last weekend. I am very pleased, but I am staying out of heavy throttle until trans tuning is released, supposedly ppei will have theirs out end of this month.
Best part is having run two full tanks now, ive picked up an honest 1-1.1 mpg from my previous export tune. Last tank was 17.48, 768 miles 44.1 gallons. Included both fuel filters changed when i did my oil, idling with ac on staking a house for an hour, and sitting in 45 min gridlock at a wreck outside Birmingham on i-20, plus my normal mixed city, highway and morning/afternoon stop and go here in north atlanta.
Same conditions i was averaging 16.2-16.4 before. Very pleased for 35" at tires and a 9000lb truck
TX gold i am staying away from WOT for now so i dont have much comment on power, i will weigh in once the trans is tuned. when i changed to the below file i noticed acceleration seemed a bit smoother, Im running on position number 3, which i believe is 100 hp

Yes. Power feels just like the 2015 and '16 trucks I've tuned, but with better shifting. Running the 550 tune at the moment. Runs real nice!

Anybody get a PPEI transmission TCM file? I have not. I have only seen series updates to existing files. I am going to get a switch installed at PSE Houston soon. $55 for labor $65 for switch. Then when TCM is installed after a few weeks and no new updates, install the max SOTF file. Thats my plan today at least ha!
