    The fun cops were out again complaining about off-topic stuff, hence my post. It's all in fun until Mat shows up with some news.

    Heavy clutch? The stage 2 clutch operated much better.

    The Torque-U flywheel was double the weight of the stock flywheel and made crawling super nice.

    So, what’re you wearing? Might consider something a bit looser down there, it’s keeping stuff lodged. LOLOMGBBQ

    Just reporting in. 2nd tank of gas (been driving a lot) my MPG is pretty much unchanged that I can or cannot detect. To me this is a win imho. All this seat of the pants improvement and unchanged MPG = great! 1.05 FOB 92 Tune.

    PS This tank running a bottle of Amsoil UCL.

    Can somebody explain the value of dump tubes? Like, what gains we are seeing? Serious question, but have at it with your humor, if you chose.

    they are super pretty and my never installed set can be yours if you pm me. that's all i got. low confidence for getting support nowadays so I'm averse to getting into any need for OV support.

    next step is possibly to return these. but I'm trying to give @OVTune another chance. again.

    I will have to get more info on it before I pm you :) What kind of support you are looking into? Aren't they set-install and forget items?

    no, why would you think that? they have thrown CEL's on some trucks and require a tune to clear it. some have had leaks or rattles, at least a few users have pm'd me to ask and get info which is how i know about those reports.

    i have the 2.0 dump tube tune from the catless dump tube set i had originally and am keeping it, runs excellent. those tubes leaked though and threw CELs so i removed them and got this catted set. but if i need support such as a file from him, what do i do? send a ticket and wait 2 hours to never to get a reply? this is my DD. i have to keep it running and can't get held up by poor planning and inconsistent support if i need it.

    There is only 1 person I know of who has had any CEL with the catted tubes and from speaking with him there is clearly some other issue involved.

    The only difference with the dump tube tune and non is VVT above 6000 rpm.

    I have been working on the files to prepare a release tonight, but it's never quick enough anyway.
