Has anybody used the engine brake program? If so, how does it work?

Thanks, Chad

A couple of guys from rr west had it and they loved it. Duck fan said he was very impressed by it.

Someone should chime in.

Good luck

What he said. One of the hardest things fo rme about switching to the van turbo is losing that tune.

I have the decel tune and just returned from a 300+ mile drive through the cascades with my camper (12,500#) and used this frequently. For me, if I had to chose between the decel or the van turbo I will keep the decel. (unless I change my mind)
