What are my options for a AFM disabler? Range Technology? DiabloSport? What else? Will this aid in the transmission shudder? The shifting confusion? Hesitation? Etc?

You’re saying there’s no power to be gained from a handheld tuner and the only performance gains will come from tuning the transmission? I thought the transmission shifted smooth and fast.

I’m happy with the way the car shifts, unless there’s something I’m missing that could be improved about the transmission.

I know I’ve been out of the “game” for a while, but SCT was like the go-to brand for Fords, particularly diesels. Anytime I hear that name, that’s the first thing that pops in my head.

Oh yeah no doubt. I used to have a Duramax with a tuner that had like 7 levels. Between that and the handful of other mods, it was no joke. I’ve also had other fast cars that had full dyno tunes and...

I know a custom dyno tune or street tuning with HPTuners is the best way to go, but I’m not necessarily looking to squeeze every last hp/tq out of the car on tuning. I just wanna be able to have that...

I’ll keep it in mind, but that’s solely for disabling the AFM/DOD and plays no part in minor performance gains.

Best handheld tuner for disabling AFM/DOD & minor performance gains?

I don’t drive my car much (1900 miles), but when I do, I’m annoyed by the active fuel management/displacement on demand. The vibration, the slight hesitation/delay, the sound, the usual complaints. I...

Specifically, the red, dual intensity.

If so, can you post pics please? Is there a hole behind the factory emblem or does a hole have to be drilled? In your opinion, does it flow well with the...

I purchased the kit off from a reputable GM parts/accessory dealer that advertises on eBay, so I don’t feel as if I got a knock off or anything. It appeared to be a factory sealed OEM unit.
