    No im saying that running VM wouldn't allow me to tune and wasn't seeing certain things and throwing obscure errors. Zero issues with bootcamp on same machine

    As I previously mentioned, we aren't talking about using a VM to flash the truck, we're talking about using it to download tune FILES and then load them onto the new handheld that Mat is making available as part of the kit. You then flash the truck with the handheld device.

    So um, what's a reasonable time to wait until Mat has a chance to digest said feedback before you share it with us??

    If it's positive feedback, well.....

    You don’t need fancy suspension, 1.05 will allow you to run 35s :thumbsup:

    I was thinking more of internal hardware failure. Of course it can be broken if it’s dropped or abused.

    I think the chance of the dongle breaking is far less than a catastrophic failure of a laptop tied to a dongle-less subscription.

    Do you know if I will be able to use 90 octane with the 91 tune(all I can get) or will I need a custom tune for that? I know in hotter weather it will make a bigger difference, but I live in Alaska which has cool weather year round which also raises cylinder pressure.
