If you order between now and Dec. 24th you automatically get the codes tunes at no extra charge.

Cool, but already knew that. Maybe I worded the question wrong. Why would I need them? I couldn't find an explanation on your website, pm's and no feedback on the thread ...yet.

With some hot tunes, you will throw a CEL under heavy throttle. Someone can fill you in on the specific circumstances in which a CEL will trip. I assume that the non-CEL tunes that Jody had come up with will take care of the codes being thrown simply because you mash the peddle.

It's one of the simpliest things, but the hardest thing to explain.

The only thing I can think of why you would need/want them is why they were created in the first place. Simply, you would want them if you don't want the pesky SES light coming on and going off constantly for no real dire reason. The SES light will be triggered if there is a potential problem with the sensor. It's how Jody has it set up in the program that keeps the SES light from coming on. If you don't want your SES light to be triggered constantly then I would get the codes tunes. If you don't care, then don't get them.

I had received your pm, but I only respond to pm's as I have time daily. Sorry about that. I read this post and decided to post here so everyone would know the answer if they were looking for the same question in search.

I am appreciate your help. So of the specific codes will they ever come through if needed or will they be permanently off? I don't want the ses light on but I don't want any damage either

The SES light will be triggered if there is a potential problem with the sensor.

You're welcome, it is a tough one to explain. True that!

When work picks back up I really need to send my F5 down to get Jody's new code tunes and just to get it updated.

He can also fool the MAP sensor instead of putting an OBA on isn't that right Diane?

Overboost annilator that replaces the map line lets the turbo go over 25PSI of boost where the computer will always defuel the truck.

Dang-it, I ordered a little to soon. If I'd of waited for this offer I could have afforded 1 more tune.
