You don't have to do a right up for each file as we get your drift, but could you just throw a 1-10 rating for each tune. Some people may wonder what they might lose in performance while running the tow or vice versa. Don't know if you get all the tunes with the purchase.

Sorry, I was trying to put kid down to sleep while I typed that, between holding a book, typing the review, and watching despicable me I got something typed out haha.

I will state I used 87 performance when I first got the truck and have used 91 octane since (highest I can get here). I used the latest tunes LMS had at the time as far as perf in the 91 variety. The 87 perf. did not have the shifting issues (neither did v2 in 91 octane, and my 91 was a beta tune if that matters, I have only ran the 91 to tune since the final tune has came out so no clue if that part is fixed). The difference between them is about like any others I would assume, slightly less power and shifting seems a little less, but the 91 and 93 tunes are more aggressive over all. So my ratings above are pretty much the 91 tunes, I ran the 87 with no isses but not enough miles to give an honest rating, but I ran them without issue.

Yes, you do get all tunes from the company, you pick the 4 you want out of the 8+ they have available to customers as well as any adjustments you want on them. I look at it as about $75 a tune for what they offer when you purchase and the tuner is free... lol
