    Exactly. Not only do they stress the system, they were solely and stupidly responsible for us not getting support on several occasions.

    The end is nigh though. @OVTune brought an MT Taco home to roost. A 2018, I believe? So, in the end, 2.0 will shine like the light on the top of the tree for us.

    AT peeps will still be yammering again and again about tip in, misfires, and shift points.

    Thanks for the help. Just flashed 2.0 87 beta. Coming from 1.05 91 FOB so I am excited to see the difference. Can’t wait for final product. Am I still track correct, there will only be one 2.0 tune for all octanes?

    Dunno yet. There will be a way to switch between different tunes on the fly. Personally, I'd rather the tune be octane specific instead of waiting for the ECU to decide how much timing to advance/retard based on the knock sensor.

    Done with the 3rd tank of gas. Newest 2.0 87 file with 91 gas. I have only 2 very slight observation for adjustment, personally.
    1: A VERY slight adjustment on throttle responce. Just a little too touchy IMHO.
    2: It seems that engine brakeing is not as good as I recall. Engine definitely wants to coast and hold speed and rpm more.

    I am getting ~2 mpg better then I ever have and 5th and 6th gear are out of this world better.

    I dont beat on this truck like I have past several sports cars (one of the reasons I bought this truck).

    But holy smokes... It will hit 70mph in 2nd?!? Are you at rev limit? Does beta raise the rev limiter?

    I haven't revved 87beta that high, having to much fun down low around town.

    Hahaha!

    I am caring for this thing more than other vehicles that I have had. Still, I do play around.

    I can't remember about the Base tune, but all others have a 6,800rpm limit. This last Beta (21175) might be 6,900?

    The bottom end on this tune is killer also.

    I took the chart you used to published, and accessorized it a bit.
    I know its not really a spread sheet. But it is a good for one or two quick calculations, or to help set up an excel spread sheet.

    You have to input the ratios manually.
