Lew does a good job at customer service.............answers questions very good
My concern with tunes are still being able to run 87/89
I do not want to rely on 91+ for performance
What octane tunes are you getting? What programmer did you choose?

You can pick which type of tune you want in the unit. I have no plans on running 91. I bought the smaller unit.
I never understood offroad tires on 20" wheels, lol. Unless you're running 40" tires I guess

I’m kind of curious as well. My 2019 has a 275/60R20 stock, which is around a 33x10.8. With the newer body style you can fit a narrow 34” tire with a leveling kit. I have the 5.3 and 8spd also.

Got the Diablo in the mail. I love it. I can't believe GM sold a trans the way they did, if it can work like this. I'm not convinced the tune actually makes more power, it just feels that way because it's now shifting the way it should. Should be interesting to see what a custom tune can do...
My truck came with, and am still running the 265/65/18s........which is roughly 31.6 x 10.40
With the 3.5" lift, I do need to upgrade a size or two
I am hoping to find some 285/65/18, 285/70/18...........or even a 295/70/18
I would rather runs a 285/65 or 285/70.........so I do not have to worry about rubbing anywhere and I also wont lose a ton of MPG
This small 26 gallon tank is hard to get used to, compared to my old F150 with a much nicer 36 gallon tank

Intake tube, Cat back.
Running 87.
It feels quicker, But it could honestly have been the torque management and shift points.

I know Lew does a good job with custom Diablew tunes........but its also $515
A used Hypertech max energy is $200-$250
I liked the Pedal Commander on my old F150........being able to adjust on the fly was a great feature
The AFM is also very annoying to me.........and I am not 100% pleased with the Range device

I'm still playing with the canned tunes. Hoping to get some custom tunes soon.
What model programmer did you go with?
The tuner turns off the AFM right?
Does it also adjust the pedal sensitivity?

I have the smaller of the two. AFM, yes. Not sure about the throttle. Although it does seem more touchy now. Like the V8s of old.
