So I guess I have to spell the important missing part out; I need a price quote on a TW tuner... I lost the one I recently received.. I recall a price but not the vendor.

You can just go on his website, fill in the information he needs, fill out the positions you want and it will tell you how much it costs....

And yes, his tow and heavy tow will be different no matter the mods you have...

So what tow tune should I get?! Regular tow or heavy tow???

Also, a price quote I got from a vendor appeared to be a good bit cheaper than the price TW himself was offering, thats why I was asking.

Gotcha. Well, the tow tune depends on what you want to tow...

I think mine is just the regular tow tune. Depending on how soon you are looking to order this chip, you might want to shoot Tony an Email and just infer about some of his tunes you are interested in. It can't hurt.

I believe t.w.'s heavy tow alters the shift parameters even more than tow. It also has more power which is the opposite of most tuners. In my opinion, as much as I cannot recommend t.w because of his terrible service, He is the only one to get this right. I recommend only getting the heavy tow and wach the e.g.t.'s yourself. If you only tow light and don't want to watch, get the regular tow.
