I don't remember if there was an explicit confirmation on screen, but the form went away, and I received a confirmation e-mail within moments.

I got off the phone with SCT this morning. They were very helpful. My tuner is in the process of being formatted and then reinstalled. They told me if I had loaded a tune to the truck already I would have to send it back for recovery.
I really want to get a tune loaded but I have a pending appointment, for whenever the tech's bay opens up after an engine rebuild, to have my engine inspected for a piston knock. I don't want to risk not being able to return to stock before that. So i will probably be holding of on my tune for a while.
My form disappeared when I hit submit and I got a confirmation email immediately. Check you spam folder. The emails come from Stage3.

Good call on the Junk folder. Found the confirmation email but still haven’t seen the tunes. I’ll call today if they don’t show up by lunch. I’m beyond the 36hr window and into the 48+ now.

Called Stage 3 just now and they said the email went out yesterday, but I haven't seen it yet.
He informed me that my strategy code was not up to date. So now I have to find time to locate a dealer and pay 100 bucks to have them flash it to the most recent strategy code. PITA
I wonder if MPT can use my current strategy code....

Took the truck by a dealer Tuesday morning and paid $98 for the update and sent the new strategy code shortly after having the update completed. No tunes yet. Hoping it comes tomorrow.
Anyone get their tunes uploaded to their truck yet? If so, how do you like it?

I have the 87 Octane Economy tune loaded, but I haven't driven it enough to really evaluate it yet (my poor truck spent most of the week parked while I was out of town). It seems to be fine so far.

I was just glad they did it without a fuss, have heard lots of dealers not wanting to do it.
After I sent them my new strategy code on a Friday night I got my tunes mid day on a Tuesday. Running the 93 performance, it's fantastic, just have to get used to the tires breaking loose when merging onto the interstate every morning

I got my tuner back from SCT today. SCT paid for shipping to them, received it Friday and overnighted it to me yesterday. Very good customer service.
I Loaded the 87 Performance/Tow. Right away I can tell a difference in the power in the take off, the shifts are quicker instead of being drawn out and the truck is much more willing to stay in 5th gear longer and to shift down to 5th gear sooner.
That was as much as I got out of my quick ride to Ace Hardware. I'll drive it for the week but I may throw the economy tune on for this weekend with as much driving as I will be doing visiting family.
