    This thread is much more peaceful than the alpha thread :) too many whiners over there that can’t read.

    Do you guys use macs for this or PC? And for mac guys, if it’s only PC they are SOL and have to invest in a new computer?

    Does anyone have experience with this tune while off roading? Using 4-hi/lo and diff lock?

    Parallels or bootcamp has been the solution reported to work.

    I have a sport so no diff lock but use 4lo quite a bit while plowing, if that counts. No issues.

    I went back to 1.03b 87. Throttle felt better on it vs 1.03c 87. I would use the 1.03b 91 tune if a majority of my drive wasn't stop and go. Damn traffic.

    I think i'm going to follow you. I drove the truck today for more than a few miles the first time since flashing 1.03C. The throttle is definitely responsive, borderline twitchy, but very predictable. If I spent more time with it I could probably get smoother, but I would also likely eat through tires. :burnrubber:


    I'm going to go back to 1.03B and evaluate. I drove it for barely 20 miles so I need to re-visit and see if I like it better.

    Dude, I thought that one guy was going to start crying. He was bitching about how even with the tune, he did not like the truck, so I simply said good luck finding something that fits your needs, and you would have thought I killed his mother lol.

    I think I might try 87 tune on 1.03b as well. Just curios to see/feel the deference. I am currently on 1.03c 91 tune.

    Looks like boot camp cost $100. Would buying a cheap refurbished laptop be an easier way for a non tech user? And if anyone knows of a cheap laptop that works for sure, post up the link please!

    I recommended this one to another person in need of a laptop a couple days ago. I have no affiliation with the seller and I have not personally bought anything from them. They do have good ratings, and clam to be "Microsoft approved". I use a T530 to flash and also have a T430. Good laptops, tough as nails.

    Has anyone lined up a my truck for Mat to fine tune the new 1.03c tune on? The surging at 2500 is reduced for me but still annoying.

    No, not that I am aware, there has not been a MT truck for Matt to use as of yet.
