Steve Cole has had this program in his truck since Jan. I have driven his truck many times when we traded off. The program is as smooth as silk and Steve controls the turbo where no one else has been able to. The guys at Transgo know the truck well and say it is the best program they have seen. I have driven LLYs with all the new programs and none of them come close to giving you the truck owner what you deserve and what GM should have done. Am I biased? You bet. For those of you guys that know me, I am picky, and second best won't do. " It is what it is" - Guy Trip. Love that phrase.

The TTS Tow tune works fine on the LB7. I was having No-Start issues with the Edge Juice/Attitude. Decided to go a different direction. I purchased my TTS 3-way program after email exchanges with Desert Diesel and DMAX_Doug. They convinced me it was the way to go for my situation at the time and I agree with them. The following are my observations. The LB7 TTS Tow tune is a cross between the Juice Level 1 and Level 3/4. The lowend of the TTS Tow tune feels very close to the Juice Level 1 (it is not as strong as the Juice Level 2 in my opinion - TTS programmed it this way to keep EGT's under control). Around 2200 RPM, there is a real kick that feels more like the Juice Level 3/4 (somewhere in between) and this continues to around 3000 rpm. These observations were substantiated at the LA Dyno event that Mike_L put together in February. I have had no issues with the programming. It works as advertised. Imagine that!http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/HiHi.gif

Thanks OC


Will be using it for towing mode only. Is it a programmer with speed and tire corrections.http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Hug.gif

You have no idea how many TTS programs I have had. My PCM is a whore. http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/HiHi.gif Sometimes we tickle her, sometimes, well you know. http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Rock On.gif

Any idea when the handheld TTS programmer for the LLY is going to hit the streets? Last word I got was around September. Here we are? JJ http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Big Smile.gif
