Matty Tac I would definitely go with the street tune in my opinion. If not then get up with TruckSourceDiesel and they can build a tune specifically to how you want it! Thanks for watching!

I installed this a year ago on my 2004 F250 6.0 with 87,000 miles. I had a new FICM installed 6 months ago. Started having water in fuel light coming on about month ago. This would kick the turner back to stock mode until throttle returned to idle. Drained water separator (No Water) changed filter. Problem still there. Cleaned connectors. Problem still there and now started having glow plug indicator lighting up. Decided to reinstall SCT program to see if that would help. Returned to stock settings and checked for updates on SCT website. There were many. Updated SCT Turner and before installing new program decide to test drive in Stock Mode. None of the problems I had were present but it was a dog. Tried to install new updated program. I kept getting Error code and it stated return to stock mode but it would not give you options to return to stock. It should already be there since the update never took. I contacted SCT and found out that during their update the program assumes that your factory FICM, TCU and ECU had the VIN number loaded into those components. 2004 did not have them which caused the error during loading the updated program. SCT took my info (VIN#) from my truck and my Tuner and wrote a program to load the VIN number to factory equipment. They programed my turner that day over the computer and I uploaded it. That was week ago and since then I have had no problems with codes, water in fuel, or glow plug lighting up. Great job by the support team at SCT. My transmission shifts like factory.

I haven’t had any issues. Truck still runs great. Shift points , timing , and a few other things. The tunes from TSD vs. the canned tunes on the tuner are night and day difference. I’m currently running a custom tune from a company called gear head. I like it as well.

OUCH! Earlier this morning, I returned my 2006 6.0 truck to stock and then updated my tuner... like SCT instructions say to do. I guess the next time I flash my tow tune, I won't be able to eliminate the check engine light! SCT should provide a user warning prompt to their tuner updates... or did I miss it?

Duramax_Nation modder if you’re studded man I really recommend personally the SPD Studded tune from Truck Source Diesel out of Texas. The most smoothest shifting powerful tune I’ve ever ran personally. Even Compared to other popular ones like inovative, gear head, etc. SPD Studded from TSD is Definitley my favorite.

Duramax_Nation modder and not to mention fuel economy I had on that tune. Had a 4door LBCCDRW (long bed crew cab dual rear wheel) and got 18.9 MPG on interstate. Loved the throttle response as well. Definitley could be amazing especially paired with a Atlas 40 ficm tune or more.
