I dont understand why this turned into an argument or a “call out session”. Why is it relevant what the tune is called? How it achieves its octane flexibility is the same as OEM, possibly even more sensitive - whats the harm done here?
As someone WHO ACTUALLY HAS THIS TUNE INSTALLED and paid out of pocket for it - it’s fantastic! I exclusively run 93 octane as well but what if i loan my truck to a friend?? Or im way out in the woods and only 87 is available? Will it bump the knock sensor like it would on the OEM tune and pull timing? Sure it will! Will i be dogging it when it does? No!!! To be clear, I hope to never use 87 octane, but if i have to, im likely somewhere where i dont want to reflash, and I welcome the OEM knock retard.
Names aside, the truck is way faster, shifts better and has no issues post-flash…. It’s a great product and I’m extremely satisfied - it amazes me that people get so upset over things like a name.
As I’ve said above - the tune is great, the service, delivery and follow through were great. My ECU never left my truck and im making big power over OEM. I liked it so much I even purchased the stage 2 variant for when I upgrade to a full size FMIC vs the stock loc whipple I have currently…
Ignore these griefers - and carry on the good work, Gearhead and HammerBuilt.. I appreciate you providing a product that made my truck accelerate faster and shift better.
I’m sure the other competitors tunes are great too - I don’t know which one is better, I don’t care - I know which one gave me the ability to install with the ECU remaining in the truck and also allows me to flash back to stock on a whim.
Keep selling these for new vehicle releases please, I’ll buy another one for my next truck… You can call that one auto octane too…
