Sounds like the tunes are backwards. Still, you should get more then 13#.

yeah I felt sick last night after finding out that's all it was but I'm happy now my truck feels like it's back to normal now I'm going to the race track this weekend so we will see if the injectors and turbo stuff help out

Glad you got it. Just didn't make since one tune had higher boost then the other. With the race tune lowest.
