    If everybody chips in $5 he can buy stock tires on stock rims.... I know, we've already paid $700+...

    Majority of our customers actually have larger than stock tires...

    Idle RPM is now within +/- 5 rpm.
    Will confirm with trucks that have the issue.
    I appreciate everyone being patient.

    The 1.05 updated tune does seem to be a bit better. I think it’s perfect now. Having the power to slowly build to speed seems better now. If you step on it, it flies thru the gears to 3rd pretty quick and seeing this truck’s tach hit 6000rpms is a thing of beauty and butt puckering

    After several, 10 plus, 1st gear full throttle pulls, in D, it seems that the the time it takes to shift to 2nd gears takes forever. This is at rev limit of around 5600. Can anything be done to shorten the shift, as noted below shifts are very smooth. I think I’ll be a fan of a higher rev limit too, 6600 or 6700rpm.

    ALL SHIFTS ARE REDICULOUSLY SMOOTH. Every shift in all modes has been smooth.

    Speaking of rev limits,Mat mentioned that he was able to get the redline up to 7k. @OVTune is this rev limit applied to the 1.05 tune or is it optional?

    God I don’t want the hate but here’s what I noticed.

    Under light throttle low load the truck is too aggressive to upshift.

    1st raps out at 2500 no matter what for me. Then each shift thereafter is aggressively short and the truck races to 5th at 1200 rpm if not lower at 30mph. Then I have to get into the throttle and it downshifts back to 4th if not 3rd. Kind goes back and forth like this.

    However, shifts seem smooth and highway is awesome.

    No idle issues I’ve seen.

    I have not done any full throttle pulls. Was going to wait a few hundred miles.

    Caveats: 4.88 w/ 265/70/17 tires.

    Again just what I’m seeing. Don’t want to be lynched.

    My lady asked me why I’ve been sitting in the truck anxiously waiting for the new flash manager to be released.... I told her because of an orange virus. That’s why. #patientlywaiting

    Sorry, really hating the 1st gear actual shift. whether it's 2000rpm or 6000rpm it takes so long to shift to 2nd then isn't smooth when the power comes back.

    I also had a large clunk on stop, up to temp.

    The TSB had 1st>2nd perfect.

    Optional, options will come at a later date.

    Note, regarding shift points. All shift points are at a higher axle speed than the TSB. However the accel demand to axlespeed has also been modified. So the transmission shifting directly (to a degree) depends on what you are doing with the gas pedal.

    The shift point isn't the issue, the actual act of the shift itself is

    Completely stock, about 125 miles on 1.o5. I'm experiencing the same. Shifts are smoother and the power band has dropped to lower rpm's. No clunking when downshifting 2 - 1st. 1st - 2nd shift seems to hang and take to long. Upshifts from 2 - 6 seem to occur much to soon so you have to press harder on the pedal which causes a downshift and so on. 1.04 seemed to have higher shift points. I'm still feeling the "dead zone" in the pedal when you slow down from 45 say to 30 and try to accelerate again. Press on the pedal, no response, press more, nothing, etc. until it finally kicks in. Very similar to stock.

    Also, is anyone feeling a "kick" or boost around the 2k rpm range when shifting between 1 and 2nd? It's very noticeable and abrupt on mine. It feels like the VVT is kicking in at that point. Not saying it does, but that's how it feels.
