So I have the xcal3 with tunes from dj's economy,tow,street,looney..I would like your opinion on what to run I use my truck for work. I tow a 3500 pound texture rig with tools in the bed and after work nothing so what would be good to run all the time?....I am running economy right now but I was thinking should I run tow all the time and also how does tow run without towing anything and info would be great thanks
are you using any gauges at all? I would be careful without gauges and running your truck hard. Plus with that 03 its cool when you see your boost gauge hit 30+ pounds
I would run economy until you get your gauges, then try a street tune and see how it gets. I think you will be fine with the street towing, but gauges just make sure.
BTW I run my Wild Looney 24/7 and LOVE it!!! :sct:
Yeah I tried the street and looney tune for fun and I could see how you need guages they put some crazy power in the truck...I love it..just need guages before I really run them as a daily driver
I run my truck daily on Street Looney and love it. I switch to tow tune while towing though so I dont blow anything up. I agree with everybody, you definitely need to get gauges before you go too crazy, it is amazing how quick your EGT's go up.
..I know I tried street and looneys and did a couple burn outs around the block but then I went back to econo untill I get guages .....but ill tell you what its is fun as hell
I have no gauges (I know I should install a pyrometer but I dont want to....afraid of the install.....junking up the truck.) Wondering if it is ok to run looney on the highway with no gauges
