    Not yet besides a beta that isn’t available anymore I believe. The 2.0 base beta is what I’m on now and I just went on a long trip Labor Day weekend and I had a grin on my face the whole time. Truck performs a lot better and gets 2-3mpg better. Holding off now on 4.88’s/5.29’s until I get tires that call for them:D

    I’m running 4.88’s with 32’s and OVtune (4.88 tune Beta) and it’s amazing

    What rpms are you putting out when you drive 80mph? I have 32.7s and am considering 4.88s

    What am I calculating wrong? 4000rpms at 80mph is not good at all. Apparently to be running around 2000rpms I have to have a 2.73 gear ratio. WTF

    I don’t see 80 very often but I’d say it’s 2500.

    65mph is 2000

    Yep - this 4.88 beta tune with gears and 33 skinnies is awesome on my truck too. I
    You are not turning 4k at 80mph. I have that same size tire on 4.88 and truck will do 80 way easier than before. I think it was turning 2500-2600 and when it dropped to 5th it was 2700-2800 ish.

    Yep. On avg 4.88’s increases each gear by about 400 rpms relatively ..which isn’t much
