Bully Dog GT Install (Gas)

[@inkZzClan]

What is brake torque management

[@thoroughbreddiesel]

Basically, disabling BTM gives you the ability to hit the accelerator while holding the brakes without the motor reducing power. If you catch my drift.

[@jeissir]

Thoroughbred Diesel So basically what you are saying kinda like launch control?

[@langer101mytube2]

@@jeissir no. More like traction control

[@darrelsmith4549]

It's so you can brake torque burnout 🤷🏼‍♂️💯💪💪🤘😁😂

[@aldee3018]

just got the bullydog tuner 40417 and was having a bit of an issue getting it started but watching you video worked very nicely, thank you.

[@thoroughbreddiesel]

Great to hear!

[@aldee3018]

I'll be checking in from time to time on what you got going on,again thank you.

[@BanginCB7]

Great video! Thanks. I'll be installing one of these tomorrow on my 09 Suburban LTZ 5.3L flex fuel. Bully Dog says it's compatible. I hope so. Can't wait to try it out.

[@shanemiller4108]

How did it work out I'm thinking for my 2008 tahoe

[@fatboy6154]

Omg all thise icons are killing me lol

[@troyblanchard-cilia8820]

Man I feel ripped off haha I just ordered mine and got a small square box and no fancy sticker like that🤣

[@TheBigdoggg33]

Excellent video. Very easy to follow. God bless.

[@thoroughbreddiesel]

Thanks!

[@ryanpalmer1367]

I have a 03 Yukon 5.3l and I was wondering what’s the difference between the 40417 and the 40410?

[@thoroughbreddiesel]

The 40410 is 50 state legal.

[@burtreynolds3231]

I don't think you have to install the programmer to the fuse box. Just upload your tune and you should be good to take the programmer out. I have a dash cam set up in the passenger side, with an oversized tint bar across the top and just don't want the extra screen dotting up the windshield.

[@Jaydogg2001]

Do you recommend one of these for the 2015 hd2500 6.0. Right now it’s a dog pulling a fifth wheel. Can’t maintain highway speed. Any incline it kicks down and sounds like it’s gonna blow. Forget accelerateing to pass on highway. Will one of these give me more power to pull at highway speed?

[@thoroughbreddiesel]

Yes sir. The GT does really well on gas engines. We have had especially good luck on the 6.0. It really wakes the truck up.

[@sambuvca22]

I have a cherry of a 2010 GMC Sierra 2500 HD WT that I use for towing. It’s only got 100k but it’s a sled. 6.0 liter gas. Would you recommend this for my application on installed one in a truck like mine? Main reason is it downshifts hard in tow haul and it also needs more in the top end of the rpm range. I’d order it from you if so. Thanks for your time. Sam

[@4JOESPH]

Did you install a tuner? I'm having a hard time finding info about results, especially for people that use their trucks for work and towing.

[@DaytonaJim78]

@@4JOESPH any luck

[@33asm18]

When you done with the bully tuner is it ok to disconnect and turn off the switch?

[@rickyfennecken]

Will this disable active fuel Management this on a 4.3?

[@williamgoebel4256]

i have a brand new sd card and when i put it in the tuner it says i dont have one and says error code 12. well it wont show up on the bully dog update agent either. i need help

[@nathanweikle9224]

I bought my tuner used and it didn't come with the thing you put the sims card in and plug into computer. Will a regular sims card adapter work to download the tune?

[@thoroughbreddiesel]

Yes, any SIM card adapter will work.

[@dougmcguire101]

What was the problem with the internet not Hooking up to tuner

[@thoroughbreddiesel]

Our WIFI connection.

[@fluffy9545]

Is there a direct link to the update agent because i cant find the one your running

[@thoroughbreddiesel]

It is a Bullydog 40417, we don’t offer them on the site but give us a call and we can get you setup. 859-737-4966

[@turbocateyeS475]

Why wont mine let me switch to battery mode? My 08 silverado came with an unregistered but installed GT on it and i registered it and am updating it. But if i switch from key to battery it wont turn on.

[@thoroughbreddiesel]

Is the power wire installed?

[@darrelsmith4549]

So,I know I'm doing something wrong,I'm also not tech savvy and using an older laptop,but for some reason,my card isn't showing up to the update agent 🤔🤔🤔

[@darrelsmith4549]

And I've already had it programmed to another vehicle but done what was required,or so I think,to uninstall from the other vehicle 😢

[@thoroughbreddiesel]

Yep, try that.

[@darrelsmith4549]

Figured it out,I didn't complete uninstalling from other vehicle, didn't do my homework 🤷🏼‍♂️😔😂 thanks TBD 💪

[@johnsinclair8008]

Mr. David, how long does it take to get rolling? I want to do this same thing basically however, I was thinking that drop shipping would be easier considering I am not tech savvy at all. Could you explain the difference?

[@im_a_ukie8951]

Roll tide😋!!!!!

[@davidbohner7213]

I tried this but it never picked up the chip I unplugged it and plugged it back and still nothing idk what to do now or how I can even get it done if I can’t do it on my computer

[@kirkbiro7912]

Don’t know if you will see this or read this but I have my tuner power level set to premium but I’m running regular fuel does that make the truck more “gutless or increase it?

[@The.Fatman]

No transmission shift point settings

[@thoroughbreddiesel]

Depends on the platform, some have shift point change capability.

[@oneman723]

Does it do custom tuning for performance and towing

[@paramvirsinghsandhu9]

Can I install one on my 2013 cadillac xts4 platinum awd? I'm in canada.

[@strongsounds1]

I have one in my 2004 Chevy Silverado and i use 87 since gas prices are high do i change the level from premium to regular

[@LandonClimbs]

Yeah if you were running a premium tune and were running 91, then you should detune it to the stock or original whatever the middle option is.

[@davesbest1580]

Does it have throttle sensitivity modes also with this

[@paulbyndyu9629]

Does it remove speed limiter for a 2008 Silverado 5.3 ?

[@austinblakney939]

Yes

[@chasetaylor8233]

How did you fix the error with the internet or server?

[@wallymarshall7422]

How do you use the traction control function

[@emanuelleon3279]

I bought a used programer for my 14 silverado its been runnin on a 2012 silverado my question is do i need an upgrade to make it Work properly

[@rickytaylor547]

About a use yet also in like a moon to download it in tells me it is a downloading GT diesel device which I have a 2000 live in yes. Can last you make this work

[@Danxotix]

So I can use the tunes I made corrections to without doing the fuse process?

[@thoroughbreddiesel]

The initial download will require the fuses to be pulled.

[@darrelsmith4549]

So,I'm still fuzzy on the answer...when adjusting the tuner, after the initial load process,do I have to pull the fuse's again later in time once I've decided to alter the tune? Pretty scared I will mess up my truck,but trust your opinion..

[@darrelsmith4549]

Also,what is USB mode?

[@jesusalbertoveliz6107]

Me puedes ayudar a instalarlo en una lobo 2016 5.0?

[@Kcknbck99]

Hey I know this is for a gas car. I have 2005 6.0 power joke. The screen on my bully dog gt won’t turn on. Any help would be appreciated

[@melissaporter1380]

Did you get assistance with this? We have one vut is is 'stuck' on the bulldog screen

[@inkZzClan]

How do I remove the torque management with the bully dog please help

[@thoroughbreddiesel]

On the gas tuner, you will have to go through the menu screen to see if turning BTM off is applicable for your vehicle.

[@Gman256.]

Will it cancel my factory remote start? I saw this on a couple forums.

[@thoroughbreddiesel]

We haven’t heard reports of that in the field. Check to make sure that the vehicle doesn’t have any codes.

[@vicr360]

Thanks boss

[@stevenemery8729]

These work on the flexfule 5.3 also?

[@BanginCB7]

I hope! I'll be installing this tomorrow on my 09 Suburban LTZ 5.3L Flex fuel.

[@garlandtxcuh9497]

Do it work for a tundra

[@WTxHavoc]

Will this give the option to disable AFM (DOD) on a 2012 5.3 Silverado?

[@thoroughbreddiesel]

This will disable AFM.

[@dustinyeargain2525]

This will NOT disable afm

[@dustinyeargain2525]

Has to pop up and give u that option to shut off.. it worked on my 05 and 08 but does NOT work on 2014 through 2016 for sure

[@oldblue101rf]

@@dustinyeargain2525 I can confirm this I tried it on my wife's 2014 suburban 5.3

[@jerryrod83]

Can you run it out the box or do you have to update it?

[@thoroughbreddiesel]

Updating before install is always recommended.

[@jeffcassielangley259]

Will this work on cars and with other tunes.

[@warclub2175]

Yes you can delete the other tuner and costume your own

Hi how to set it up on 2014 ram 1500 I'm getting error code thanks

[@ernestoalicea4594]

Sounds like your installing on a Chevy? Of so theres fuses that need to be removed befor linking to vehicle than replace them after installation

[@DadsDriveway]

This thing must be the most overpriced piece of crap I have seen in a long time. Note the SD card is 2GB and that is the max size. They forgot to send me one. Next I finally found one and the software doesn't recognize the darn thing so it won't update anything. It's a brick to me. HP Tuners is modern about the same price and it works!

[@gaggagill]

Error code 203 Not reading vin Everything else ok just showing vin different then my truck I updated the unit everything

[@ernestoalicea4594]

Not reading your VIN because the unit is locked to another vehicle,,you have a nice paperweight until you spend another 250 to have it unlocked .. programer is married to another tuck
