    Can someone help me out with what these options mean, also isn't there a way to select tire size?

    All the details are here:
    https://www.ovtuned.com/blogs/news/...0-manual-transmission-2020-model-year-support

    Shift + Win Key + S makes nice screenshots. :cheers:

    OL - octane learning
    SFOB - atkinson delete
    Dump - for folks with OVT headers
    Reg - ignition starts at lower octane setting and adapts
    Prem - ignition starts at higher octane setting and adapts



    Basically for throttle response:

    Base running 87 < Base running 91 / 92 / 93 / 94 << SFOB running 87 < SFOB running 91 / 92 / 93 / 94



    Tires and gearing only affect AT shifting and speedo limits. Not for MTs.

    I don’t remember seeing any of these options when I flashed my truck. Are these new options with one of the VFTuner updates, or are these options only for MT?

    No worries!

    It is a personal choice. You can't really go wrong with any tune. Flash it, Reset the DTCs and LVs, idle for 5min, and drive it for 500mi to let the tune settle. Then try something else and see if you like it better.

    I've been on 2.0 SFOB Prem for three tanks of 87 and ten tanks of 92. It suits me. :D

    2.0 Full MT versions. I believe @OVTune said that 2.0 Full / Actual AT versions would be out around next week?

    What does disabling the Atkinson cycle do? Gain power at a certain RPM? I’ve been running the premium fuel THX version for a few weeks and I’m very happy with it. The truck still just seems to really lack in power until 2500rpm or higher. Which tune has everyone found that creates the most low end torque? I could care less about peak HP numbers, I’m looking for lower end torque since torque is what gets you moving.

    I'm running the same tune. Is it even worth messing with the others? I have no interest in an atkinson cycle tunes. From my understanding it was some what maintained in the other non SFOB tunes in the tune pack right?

    ATs don't have the FOB option, yet. Previously there was Base and Perf. I do not believe there was any atkinson changes in Perf? There might have been one 2.0 Beta that was FOB for the ATs?

    @OVTune said in the past that 2.0 Actual for the ATs would have Base, Perf, and Tow with tune switching. I believe it was alluded to that Tow would be similar to FOB?

    FOB simply eliminates the faux atkinson cycle from most all running conditions. This is what gives most of the low end torque that we are feeling on 1.05 FOB and 2.0 SFOB.
