Update!
Another 280 miles on the tune before i decided to top off. This tank I had 30 miles with around 400-500 pounds in the bed. And another ~100 with my 7x12 enclosed v nose with 7’ ceiling at around 3000 pounds. Driving with the trailer is pretty aggressive as people like to ride beside me...
To me the opportunity to have a touchscreen that flashes the darn truck in my driveway is much more convenient than swapping ecm. Money is penny’s when you sit down and crunch numbers. I spent around 1100 with sofa for 1&2 engine tune and trans tune and 400 on my egr delete kit and the exhaust...
I got to it too quick lol check out my last post. I also use mine to connect to my laptop and use Alfaobd to see what dealers see and allows for a variety of procedures and tests to be run as the dealer can do.
I use this one on my ram. It’s iPhone version but they have one that will do android also.

I use obd fusion as my app to read codes to my phone and it doubles as a...
Harbor freight sells a scanner under 30$. Without a means of a scanner you could be chasing a ghost. You find the code you can 99.8% pinpoint the cause of the issue.
UPDATE.
hand calculated mileage with 51 miles towing and 348 of semi aggressive combination highway/ city driving hand calculated 19 mpg! Better than 17-18 I averaged before! Plus no fire bomb tube attached anymore!
UPDATE.
Took the car to work. Got home and decided to take the truck to my service call. 28 outside so I remote started the rig. Let it idle 5 minutes. Turned onto my road and got 500ft from driveway going down the road and all the sudden motor stumbled for a second, diesel preheat in process...
I’m sorry to hear about this! Mine appears to drop the idle a bit when I press the brake and it returns to normal when I change gears. My idle is around 5-6mph on my semi flat driveway. My surge was egr related
500 MILE UPDATE
Hello to everyone!
it’s been a little over 500 miles on my SFK tuned eco, just hit 134k on the odometer. Truck is more of a beast than what it was new! I can’t believe the difference clicking a few buttons on a touch screen did!! I don’t know why I waited so long to invest into...
All good. I didn’t know If I missed something in the process of reading about tunes and turning stuff on and off. I’ve opted to only block the egr tube until this egr recall is handled. Once I have a new egr installed I plan to undo all the cluster fca has installed on the motor.
If I sell you a handgun and tell you it’s illegal to shoot it but you can own it, and you say okay, then a day later you shoot it, should the gun, the manufacturer, or the possessor be held accountable? Tannerite is perfectly legal to purchase on the shelf but as soon as you mix it, it...
