    i think the 04B13 maps may be mixed up as far as dongle vs dongle-less. The dongle 87 link has a p5f tag and the P5F 93 has a pcm tag. Is this proper?

    i know it's late, thanks for all you do Mat

    As long as you have a zendesk ticket number reference in your post, you're good.
    So for example:

    "hello world. This is my impression.
    xyz
    xyx

    zendesk # 7675 "

    Good question, don't think so but perhaps the better learned here will know.

    just my experience..
    i have never had to do that to get performance and mileage improvements. i have done it here & there, but not every tune, yet the tunes show the goods every time.

    There is no octane learning code on those files

    No need to do full RPM runs to get the tune to adapt since there is no octane learning.

    The most recent AT beta files (iirc) had octane learning enabled, and so people were encouraged to do pulls to speed up the learning, although normal driving would also accomplish the same end result.

    just like the previous tunes... give it time. i usually see a big improvement 3-4 days after flashing and driving normally. that is what some call spirited driving. it's a fun truck, what can i say?
