    Flashed back to 87 base from 87 performance last night. I loved that I didn't have to stick my foot all the way in it to make it move, but I was unable to navigate at super low speeds without a lot of jerk (pulling out of a parking spot).

    As I've posted before a couple times there will be a different version for people who do not like the current tip - in / throttle response on the performance / gearlock.
    It just takes some time to build these and we're doing some other fixes in the back ground.

    Stock tires but 4.88's. No armor or additional items of significant weight. Altitude has a lot to do with the mpg. Pretty sure mpg would be less if I ran 70 + mph.

    I am getting my check engine light back on today. Might be an issue with my truck. Maybe a sensor.

    I’ll recheck codes tonight to see if they’re the same ones.

    Truck drives great though.

    So it’s just letting me know it’s trimming the fuel tables?
    Should I just ignore it for now?

    Enhancement ask: what about slightly more tip in for the base tunes too?

    As others have stated, I think tip in somewhere between the current base and current performance would be perfect.

    I'm no expert, but I highly doubt a CEL and set codes are letting you know it's just trimming. The ECM thinks something is out of whack. If it were me, I'd clear the codes and see if they return.

    BTW, did you recently run out of gas?

    Do you install an aftermarket cold air intake?

    I've run the tune pretty much since it came out and I've never thrown codes like that..

    with our flash software select "Clear DTC" and see if they come back.
    Sometimes, and especially if someone tries to start the truck without shutting if off after a flash, you can get all sorts of crazy CELs when actually nothing at all is wrong.

    I shut it off after tuning.

    I started getting these codes yesterday. I had been on the base tube for a few months with no problems.

    I’ll send you what the dtc codes are when I get home.

    No cold air intake, but your comment made me pop the hood.

    Found the problem. Thanks, guys.

    Rubber pipes off the intake.

    Wow 4.88’s with stock tires, and it drives ok?Probably going to the 4.56 gears in the long run.

    Given how high the auto transmission is geared, I don't think 4.88's would be that terrible. I think theres a few people that run them with 265/75/16, especially if you do any towing.
