    yes I am interested as well. Please provide any feedback so that if needed it can be further enhanced. I do plan to put another MT on the dyno.
    These settings work very well on the AT to get more power, however some slight tweaking to the throttle was necessary to make it more acceptable for the MT.

    Thanks everyone. Any issues, questions, feedback, anything just let me know.

    Identification worked fine.
    checksum corrected, passed security checks.
    "Completed Unsuccessfully" three times. that was with 04B12-1.03B_91_Octane.bin

    EDIT:
    redownloaded the .bin file, restarted pcmflash and reconnected to truck. all looks correct like above but same thing, fourth time Completed Unsuccessfully

    I ran it successfully, identified successfully and then wrote the new tune! Everything went fine but I have not had a chance to drive the truck yet. Software said everything went fine though so everything should be good

    Flashed and ready to roll. Will report back in an hour or two.

    Huge fan of the flash manager btw. Made this much quicker, easier and will hopefully eliminate a lot of peoples complaints

    Definitely super user friendly. Should relieve a lot of Mat's stress too.

    Successful flash of 87 octane tune, AS MAT RECOMMENDED. :p Have a quarter tank of 93 left, but will fill up with 87 and see how things go.

    Have to head out in a few minutes, will report back early this evening.

    @OVTune Same problems as I had before,PCM flash will not open on my laptop,antivirus and addblockers are disabled. Previously it took at least a dozen tries to get it to open then it finally did and flashed the tune.

    ETA still trying to get it open,wondering if deleting everything and starting over might be the key. I still have all the codes and answer files from the first install will they work with a fresh install?
