I wouldnt let him touch another one of My PCM's with a 10ft pole.... stay away from it IMO... there are too many other badass D-max tuners out there to worry about Jesse's garbage tunes IMO....

I agree with silver-mod-o............Jesse tuned my truck and it ran better when it was stock......

Find another tuner to replace him. (like most of us have)

Do you want a custom tuned PCM or do you want a programmer?
Does Bully dog do custom tunes? I didn't think they did tunes.

Kennedy Diesel offers great tunes for the DMax. Check him out.
Guess I shouldn't post the link here since he isn't a sponsor.

Ive tuned a few of my friends Dmaxs/Allys...
Because their trucks are bone stock i just went with the 20/20 tow tune and its a great improvement!! Plus they are getting a little better fuel mileage.

One of them has a 2001 CCSB 2wd 3.73s and his mileage went from 17 to 21 on the interstate...

My other buddy has a 04 CCSB 4wd 3.73s and he cant keep his foot out of the throttle and is averaging 16.5 on the interstate..

Was that with EFI Live? Also, in your sig you have "2 bar map & SD Tuned". What does that mean?
