This will have a new Live Load Tunes button, where you can load your LL3 Files to your device.

well i loaded up my custom tunes. I tried out the ultra comp for stock heads and the hybrid race. Both seem faster than the canned performace tune. I did notice that it is a lot harder to shift with the ultra comp, it shifts really rough (w/ my manual) but im assuming thats from all the extra power. The ultra also was hard to keep the tires from spinning. The hybrid seems like a better daily driver tune, and shifted a lot easier. IMO, it didn't seem like it pulled as hard until you had the pedal to the floor, where as the ultra seemed liked it pulled more even with 50-75% throttle

I think that the true tests for me will be after I'm able to run any given tune for a least a week or so. That'll give the truck the time it needs to learn and settle into the program.
