    Would you be able to tell by looking at the tune? At this point I'm willing to send you the PCM and get a second opinion. The truck takes throttle just fine when sitting in the driveway revving the engine in park, however once I put it into gear and drive, it feels as though a troll is tapping the throttle.

    Also, the "battery not charging" message still displays on the dash (I have no idea if these issues are connected). I'm wondering if the battery current sensor is bad.

    If it's from a reputable tuner it's probably ok, if it's you sure.
    If things are close, it won't tell me much, but way off i'll be able to tell.

    you should be able to disable the battery code.

    It turns out the tune I had was causing all the issues - the clowns here in south Florida don't know what they're doing. Allen, thanks for rescuing me. The truck is running really well now - one data log revealed hitting 103kpa at only 26% throttle I was able to actually drive my truck down the road this evening, I can't wait to see what this thing does after the tune is really dialed in. Thanks again, Allen, we'll be in touch.
