From what I've read here so far, no start - stock - 60T - 80E - now here is where I'm stuck ..... 100 or 120? TIA

How much does the decel tune run? Is it the regular price or custom? As soon as Jody gets back from his week off, I'm placing my order for a new tuner. I currently only have the flashed 80e PCM. I planned on getting no start, stock, 80 tow, 80e, J Brake, 140 Smoke. I very rarely tow anything with my truck.. maybe a 6x12 trailer for hauling my atvs around in but thats it. Is there any difference between the 80 tow and 80e? I can't see myself ever towing over 3,500 pound at the max. Mostly 1500 or less.
I do like the Jake Brake for the sound... reminds me of my manual tranny days.
