    Well the manual guys seem to be loving the 1.05 tune so no matter what I'm sure he's doing all he can to get us AT guys taken care of...
    I'm sure he's had it with all these idiots that seem to harass him needlessly even if there were some legit complaints but never the less he always come through in the end...
    Working on my other mods until the 1.05 magic is released...!!!

    I hope this is not the case. I'm sure Matt's smart enough to know that this is part of business. Some will love u and hate u. He have more supporters than haters.

    I wasn't following very carefully for a while, but it looks like there was rampant sharing of the tune file. If that were the case, i wouldn't want my work stolen like that. No more tunes until that problem is fixed.

    Im probably going back to tsb also. 1.04r is not what I'm looking for, shifting is not the same as 1.04. Wish i could go back.

    I might be wrong but you can only share a file with someone who has the kit or its of no use to them, so technically your giving it to someone who already paid but was too impatient to wait for Mat.

    I think he runs a Dyno service if you live near his shop.

    If 1.05 isn’t up within the next week, I’m just going to get the TSB done. Nothing against Matt, as I have no clue the complexities around a file release. I just hate this hesitation in throttle response, can’t take it anymore.

    I hope it isn't the case either and I have no doubt that Matt understands the businees part of dealing with customers but I also think that this project was much bigger than he anticipated and with the deadlines not being met cause the tune didn't meet his standard (which I respect more than releasing a half ass tune on time) then the crybabies whining about "not living up to his word" and not sending stuff out and such, I can completely understand taking a small pause to work on other platforms just to clear the mind. I'm not holding him accountable if that's the case cause I've been there before with my own business.
    As far as I know only FM was to be released this weekend and he hasn't said anything to the contrary so I'm guessing that is still on. I was referring more to 1.05.
    I don't understand this at all lol. I live 4,700 miles away from his shop though of which 2,500 miles is Pacific ocean so most likely I won't be able to visit his dyno with my truck

    That's what I did. I am happy with the decision to get the tsb.

    I did the TSP update on Monday it’s worth getting right away if you’re having issues. It cleared it up for me right away and it drives much better now

    Should I have to tune to stock to do the TSB? or just go to dealership and request for the TSB?

    What did you guys tell the dealership for them to apply the TSB? And, did they test drive your truck to prove whatever you said?

    For me, the TSB helped smooth out the shifting, but didn't fix the delay in throttle response. That said, I do recommend getting the TSB.

    Yeah, me too.

    1.04 with ECT or 1.04 with Shift Sense Pro and ECT is OK enough for me for now...
    I'll stick with that till another version comes out from OV Tune before I bail and trust Corporate to do it right.

    Once you get TSB'd you can't go back to 1.04. (?)
    As I understand it you'll then be looking for 1.04R.

    That's true, but most SW licensing doesn't work like that, "officially". I haven't been reading every post so I'm not sure what the upgrade path is between various TSB's and 1.04r. But I'm getting the impression that people shared files, bricked ECU and came knocking on Mat's door cuz they needed to go to work and their truck wouldn't start. I need take my tinfoil hat off now and go have dinner.
