I installed the tune 2 weeks ago. The truck scoots! I still have the 1-3 shifts though? Waiting on a response from Livernois to see what is up.

Thank you for your order!
Glad to hear you've been enjoying the tune. I would be happy to help get that towing tune set up for you to download, I'll just need to get your info. So feel free to shoot us a PM or give us a call and I'll look into that for you asap. Thanks again for your business and I hope you have a great day!

I have the 1-3 shift under light acceleration as well. I've done a few launches with the turbo spooled up and the first shift is violent enough to get a good amount of wheel spin................. No complaints.....I love it!! Problem is I forgot to see if it shifts 1-3 under hard acceleration. I'll check tomorrow.I installed the tune 2 weeks ago. The truck scoots!

They still work as advertised but with more HP and more oomph!so what happens to the trailer tow button and sport mode after loading a performance tune? do they still change things or do they just not work anymore?
They're usually pretty quick but I understand there is a bit of a back log. Even still I suspect your wait will be minimal.I just ordered it.....now, the dreaded wait......
The factory drive modes will still function when tuned same as they would have stock, so no worries there. We spend a great deal of time during the tune development to ensure all drive modes play well with the tunes. However please be sure you are still switching to the towing specific custom tune when you plan to tow / haul significant loads to be safe.so what happens to the trailer tow button and sport mode after loading a performance tune? do they still change things or do they just not work anymore?
We can set up the tunes with or without the skip shift enabled, so we can always disable that if you are still seeing it during part throttle / light acceleration. Some customers feel it's a bit more abrupt of a shift than they'd like if it uses all 10 gears at 100% all times so some calibrations have that decision based off of throttle position.I have the 1-3 shift under light acceleration as well.

Any benefit to eliminating skip shifting? Under hard acceleration mine will shift to second some time. I'm used to trans with OD and maybe 4 gears. Are we gaining better acceleration and losing fuel economy or anything?We can set up the tunes with or without the skip shift enabled, so we can always disable that if you are still seeing it during part throttle / light acceleration.

For fuel mileage I can say you will increase with the Livernois tune. I am running it and I increased while having a lift and bigger tires. Just going to work and back i gaind between 1-2mpg(not much but adds up) and I gained a little more from what I lost with the lift and tires.Any benefit to eliminating skip shifting?

PS I had ordered a tune and canceled it bc I thought I was having some trans issues, after a few miles things lined out. Can definitely say customer service is amazing at Livernois. Going to get another could thousand miles on to make sure no other issues and reorder, shouldn't be hard as I put 1k on the first week I had it.
Haha, it won't be long. They're really good at responding quickly. It sure feels longer than it is though!Just uploaded stock tune to Livernois.
