That's bad ass Matt! I love watching my tuner work on the files and sit there and watch it change
Yeah, it should be more drivable 1500-1900rpm than it was before. Up top it should be a little quicker too. The tuning I did is definitely stock trans safe though.
If you want we can turn it up a bit more but I'm not responsible for your trans build :corny:
and no problem, glad it worked out that Brandon could pull the tune off. I ended up not being able to do what I wanted to do today and did that instead for about an hour and a half.
also did serpentine belt
and windshield wipers
and oil change
and fuel filter
and egr blocked and tune tomorrow
epper: truck should be good to go for a little while
Before/after of one of the tables.

black magic stuff. love reading about it/learning.
I need to do some research, never seen something like that before but I've always tuned stock trucks or pulled the tuner off before i read the tune.
edit:
you sure you don't have a dsp2 or dsp5 switch hidden somewhere? Check the grommet on the drivers side firewall for an extra wire that runs to the ECM.
The only time that message comes up is when the truck has been tuned with a dsp tune so when you try to read it with EFILive is has those incorrect checksum values.
I can get a stock tune with the correct OS and CALS but when you do that it doesn't always guarantee you won't have little gremlins or hiccups which is what happens when you use another stock file. It happens sometimes not always.
I need your 17 digit VIN to get the correct stock file. PM me as soon as you can and I will redo the tune. Brandon will have to do a full flash on it though.

truck could have been tuned with a superchips or PPE as well. When Brandon pulled the tune off did you guys pull the radio fuse, have the heater off and have all the doors closed? Some trucks are more picky than others.

It usually doesn't matter, if I read the tune then that's most likely not the problem so don't freak. If you can't get EFIlive to connect there are little tricks like pulling the radio fuse, heater or a/c off and having the doors closed and lights off.
I think the previous tune is just giving us grief.... sorry man. I'll get it figured out.
i was afraid about the tune that was in there...but don't be sorry i hope its fixable if not i will eventually get a new stock ecm and get it tuned

Do you know if Brandon locked your the license you bought to that tune? Or did it not let you get that far? Ask him and get back to me. We might run a different OS because your's is rare and I can't find and stock tunes with your OS anywhere. I'll look a bit longer but ask Brandon that if you could.
Well I started from scratch.
I just sent the tune to Brandon... this one doesn't have any checksum inconsistencies but is still your stock OS so there shouldn't be any little gremlins.
I would do a full flash (10-12 minutes vs. 2-3min flash)
