I have a V6 Silverado with the w4m tune. How did work out for you. I asked for 50% TM but I had to send it back because of the RPM's where to high. Did you have that problem ?

I love my tune, but i don't have to worry about my rpm's going to high b/c i'm a 5-speed. So i could ask for some TM removed from my engine?? Will it make a big difference?

im pretty sure theres torque management on the engien, i thought i read somewhere that autos have it for the engine and transmission... maybe it was abuse mode. these computer nannies dont let you have any fun anymore

Being you have a five speed I would just have all of the TM removed.
The TM is mianly there to save an auto tranny.
Haven't heard of anyone the has had all of the TM removed have any problems with the motor. Just the tranny.
These motors are designed for extra abuse. If they will handle high boost levels from forced induction, then it will surely handle removal of all TM.
