So the way I understand it 4.2 was a racing tune and 4.4 was for towing, what is 4.3 then. I have the 4.2.and 4.4 but have not had the time to install. I am hoping to get it done tomorrow and give feedback Saturday. Will try TNT, then 4.2 and report to you all. I am really liking my Revo sw9 tm3, tq3, rp3. I am going to try sw7 because I am reading alot about people getting better hp with sw7 over sw9.

I have been debating weather to put the 4.4 back in for towing. TNT runs real good, but doesn't have the low end of 4.4.
Did I read correct that most have been getting more power from TNT SW#7, than SW#9? I ran #7 for a few hrs, but switched to #9 & fooled with the settings. Maybe I should rey #7 again?

I've been using the 4.2 on my 07, and I'm afraid to try any newer tunes. It gets awesome mileage and flat out hauls the mail when you want to pass someone. It's fairly smoky and has some rattle at idle, but not enough to be a concern.
The 90hp SW5 4.2 on the 07 cooks my 06 truck with the Bullydog on 90hp "Extreme", especially at higher RPMs.

I am actually going to let the cat out of the bag early...
On Sept 27th, I am going to Dyno head to head...BETA 4.2 and TNT. I have both programs and going to see once and for all which one makes more power.
I know 4.2 feels stronger SOTP but only a dyno will know.
Also on Oct. 18 I will be doing a head to head match of 4.2 and TNT at the track to see which one is better for times!!!!

there's only one problem with your plan. Your test will show the differences on your truck. That doesn't mean those software's will be the same on another truck. Every little mod will make some sort of difference.
I've raced both software's 4.2 and TNT/R. I can run the same times on both software's. 4.2 fuels and launches much harder but, I believe that's because the tuning isn't as refined and the TNT

However I feel that my set-up can/might resemble someother trucks out there, so people with similar set-ups might be able to use my numbers as kind of a gauge for their rigs. More than that it really is just for my reference to see how each one works for my set-up!!

Cool thanks, that would be great to have an option when thinking about what program to run. Makes it nice to see what others run concerning SW and have that option. I hope these R-700 will get me close to 600 if not more. i think the tows were holding me back at the top. See you there.
