    GDE Purchased...Now What?

    It is actually very simple. They have great instructions and if you have any questions they responded to mine very quickly. If you can figure out how to post on this forum I think you have enough brain cells left to to a GDE tune!!

    GDE Purchased...Now What?

    The GDE tune was very easy, even for me! The biggest challenge, if you can call it that, I encountered was using a PC! I have been on a Mac or Linux computer for decades and the Windows format takes me a little longer to work through. Once I understood how to use that, easy. GDE sends you a...

    GDE Purchased...Now What?

    I was not aware that you could use the Banks with a tune. Interesting. What do you mean by "pressure boxes"? I am new to the diesel world and am slowly learning the language...kinda like when I became a Christian or when my father in law talks about his job @ the hospital. Everyone has a...

    GDE Purchased...Now What?

    I am going to sell it. I have a brand new iDash that isn't installed along with the mounting bracket that holds I have since been told by GDE that you are correct, I can keep the iDash. I will uninstall the Derringer and put it up for sale when I get around to it. I haven't installed the iDash...

    GDE Purchased...Now What?

    Hey. 2015 Laramie. Just purchased the GDE tune today. When I purchased the truck three weeks ago it had the Banks Derringer tuner installed. Obviously this will no longer be hooked up. However, can I keep the Banks iDash hooked up for recording data...

    How to avoid soot buildup and other problems 2015 Laramie 1500 4x4

    I have the same tires as well. Coming from your F150, the mpg increase is considerable and I would be pleased as well. I had not considered the cleanliness of the oil. Something to keep in mind, for sure! I will also have to pay attention to my temp. I have not done that yet. No long trips...

    How to avoid soot buildup and other problems 2015 Laramie 1500 4x4

    So, you mpg DID NOT increase after the tune? I thought it was supposed to add 2-4 mpg. I am considering all my options at this point. I waited for this truck and don't want to part with it. I tend to keep what I buy and not trade in. I love no payments!! (just got to wait a few more years not...

    How to avoid soot buildup and other problems 2015 Laramie 1500 4x4

    Hey! Brand new diesel owner. Just purchased a 2015 Laramie 4x4 Eco. 83k and has a Banks Deringer installed. It didn't come with the iBanks gauge, but I just ordered that. The recall that retards the gas mileage (forgot what it's called, AME?) has already been applied, so I am getting 23-24 mpg...
