BD Towloc

Does anyone have any experience with a BD Towloc? How hard is it to install? Is it worth using without an exhaust brake? I do a lot of heavy towing. Thanks.

Bump...

I'm lookin @ the BD Towloc/Torqloc OR ATS Co-Pilot OR Banks TransCommand.

Thats the order I am most interested in them.

Any comments on the above items?

IMO, you will be further ahead by gettting a BTS Valve Body and a proper tune instead of the canned tunes for some unknown truck and something to splice inline with the trans and make some unknown change. After all, the canned tunes you have may or may not have those adjustments in mind. Whereas a more custom tune can take those factors into account. That is how they make a clown suit. Bits and pieces of this, that or the other and it looks funny.

The Banks TransVESTITE command was there to make him a few bucks from his overpriced 10K mod with a variable resistor since he couldn't tune the program itself and could only install something to fool the ECM.
