sweet man good deal. I use my agressive tow (80hp) with turbo brake and it does very well.. my original looney i could also pull the trailer with and did a few times, i just like the turbobrake with my tow tune. Im currently running a hybrid looney/wild file with worked shifting and i wouldn't tow with it, but it hauls major ***.

If you leave the Looney File in overnight, I'd like to know how your truck starts in the morning?

I'm having an issue with this tune. I will have to contact Vivian to look at the starting tables. Starts really rough, too much smoke, and carryin on...

any hot, race, aggressive tune is going to start harder, needs more fuel and timing.. I've never cold started my truck in the winter with my tow tune, ill load it up before i start it tomorrow and see if it changes at all.

Yah, I realize that there is additional, timing, ICP pressure, fuel etc..but still should be able to start decent if the starting tables are set correctly. I have no starting issues with other high HP tunes and there is nothing wrong with my truck. I run ID's Street tune daily and starts and drives like a dream! But everytime I try the Looney it starts like a tractor.

theres a big difference between Erics Street and Vivians looney, apples to oranges. Vivian can tone it down to make cold starts easier for sure, just ask her to mess with it she'll get it running just right, thats the beauty to custom tunes. All of my other race tunes start the same way.

I run Eric's Studded Xrace everyday and have zero starting issues related to the tune. Sounds like there is a problem with the tune to me.
