Is it OK to tow a 5000lb trailer with Hot Tunes ?

I've read about guys towing light trailers on the hot tunes, and monitoring EGT's. I haven't tried the IDP tow tune just driving around, but every tune other than "Xtreme X" is downright anemic.

Anyone tow a 5000lb trailer (car trailer + 3000lb car) on the hot tunes?

Ive towed the same weight setup (~6000lb) while running spartan 275. No problems.

Ive used a tow tune once towing and it sucks. I tow on whatever tune I have loaded now which is usually a275 to 330 tune and no problems but I do run my monitor when towing
