    Chevyman408, everytime I've needed help and posted a tune or log there has been help, but starting multiple threads on the same thing after they've asked for your tune multiple times is gonna wear on everybody, it's a "help me, help you" kind of a thing

    You're in the best place for help....

    Okay, here is my stock tune, is this what you're looking for or would you like the current tune that is loaded in the truck? Please forgive me I'm new to all of this, but I certainly appreciate the help guys. My main concern is of course being able to get some more push right off the line, the high end is great with the current tune. Again, I appreciate the help guys

    The current tune would be better... Reason being is because some of the adjustments you made could not be correct (no offense), we are all learning here so, no need to worry about anyone bashing your tune or anything like that..

    Cool, in the mean time you might want to post up some mods/specs on your truck, for example: gears, tire size, headers, intake, etc....
