    I pretty much only do DSP2 tunes for that reason, really no need for 5 tunes, I do usually 100hp and a tow tune if they pull big trailers. I find most get best economy with my 100hp tune so no need for economy tune.

    That's what I have, about a 125-150HP tune in the base and a 40HP tow tune on the DSP side. I switch to the DSP side for towing more than 4K or so or when driving in snow or heavy rain to keep traction.

    And how might you make it quieter? Mess with pilot injections? Not really sure how to do that with a straight pipe lol....

    His truck has a 5" turbo back straight pipe. My buddy has a "stealth" tune on his 7.3 powerstroke. Can this be done with the pilot injection?

    I can't take the credit but I asked a friend and he said "Go to pilot injection qty and increase it from. 9 to 2.5 from 600-1000 rpm 5mm3-20mm3"

    I've played around with quieter idle tunes, and it always ended up with a hazing idle after about 30 seconds.
