Its pretty easy man....all the info is out there. I learned pretty quickly.

There are a load of things there that you can change, but likely won't. You will stick with the basics first...PE LTFT's shift pressure and TM....and you will slowly gain knowledge and play a little more.


I was so overwhelmed when I scanned my truck and seen like 300 tabs for the trans alone....but as I read and screwed around things came together.

I am still playing around, reading, and learning...as are a tonne of people on the forum...but the guys there are helpful and friendly...as are the guys here.

You might see a little mpg gain but not much. Cause in closed loop, the O2 sensors are still controlling the fuel delivery.

Main area of gain is performance.
