    Any chance to create a tune for the Magnuson Supercharger? Cause their tune blows donkey.

    Oh man…
    Running 87 the entire trip. 95% of the fuel the truck has seen before this trip has been 91 non ethanol. Ripping through premium over 6,000 miles would just hit the wallet too hard!

    Im scheduled to get the tune done this afternoon. I want to stay on 87 and want improvement for gear hunting and throttle response to get better. I dont really need more power I just want to it drive a little better. Which version should I get? I live in the PNW so we have very wet climate and ranging elevations from sea level to about 5000 ft.

    My truck is 2021 sr5 v6 4wd longbed. 265/75/16 tires with 1.5'' lift. Will do RTT but no plans of loading the truck down with tons of weight.

    Hay bud I'm here in Washington state . I recommend getting the normal kdmax pro . The sport tune is perfect if you have a heavy truck like mine . My truck is at 5,250 lbs

    Go with the KDMAX-Pro Normal Throttle. It will good now and still good when you add weight. Best all around tune.

    Was tuned first week in November. KDMAX 87 with LT. Worth getting the new tune? What are the differences? Thanks!

    Definitely worth getting the new tune!

    - More usable and noticeable low end torque
    - Improved gas mileage. Best MPGs so far! (As always, NOT Guaranteed.)
    - Octane learning from 85-95 octane--no more Regular and Premium versions.
    - Improved/smoother shifting.
    - Works with CAI's, Custom Exhausts, and Dumptubes with no weird affects.
    - 4Lo tested- smooth and strong at low speeds.
    - More user friendly throttle settings/names and just three choices:
    1. Sport throttle- Aggressive, linear (much like our Regular/aggressive now but optimized for less jerky low speed)
    2. Normal throttle- Used for Daily Driving but aggressive and linear (much like the old SLT but optimized and linear)
    3. Lite throttle- Like the Stock/WifeTip throttle but optimized to be linear and smooth

    Sounds great! So if I have LT now I should probably go with normal? Also, how does ECT button work now? Thank you for the info and amazing work!

    Yes if you are happy on LT then Normal throttle will work great for you.

    I had SLT with 6 and went with normal on Pro. Very smooth, very linear. For my purposes I only need ECT for the tow mode. However, If I ever need more of a performance experience I can also get that with ECT on.

    Went from Durango to Denver today on the pro tune. 350 mile drive started at 4am and the temp was from 5 to about 32 degrees throughout the drive. Managed to get 20.7 mpg calculated at the pump and speedometer is calibrated for larger tires. Pretty impressed given I spent a good 2 hrs sitting at 75 and the cold temps/winter gas. For reference I’m on 33s and 5.29 gears. The rest of the time was going about the speed limit to 5 mph over.
