Gearhead tunes with a manual?

b.knight0926 · Apr 13, 2015

I have a six speed and am currently using innovative tunes. I am not too happy with them, way to smokey and seems to de-fuel when I want to run out gears. I assume it's wanting me to shift. Anyway, I've heard great things about gearhead and was wondering if anyone has heard or had any experience with gearhead tunes on a manual as opposed to and auto. Thanks in advance

I have gearhead tunes and a ZF, I'm happy with them.

I've run both Innovative and Gearhead on my 6 speed 6.0 and I prefer the Gearhead. The Gearhead tunes are noticeably cleaner...

I run gearhead tunes(extreme srl) with my 05 manual and it runs good and clean

good to hear! Heard of anyone running them on a 6.4?

I ran GH tunes on my truck twice. First time was great. Second time he couldn't get my truck to run. So I went to RCD and I've been happy since. But my truck is far from stock by any means.

Were the GH tunes smokey? and any reason it wouldn't start? What tuner are you using?

Not bad. But a big single and 60% injectors wasn't that clean regardless lol. And no. Sct livewire

I had a friend with a 6 gear 6.4 with gearhead tuning and he really liked it as well, we traded trucks for a few days and I liked the way it drove, very minimal smoke but it had an elite drop in.

Time for turbos Ben. Start saving we can take care of excess fuel. Lol

I just got Gearhead tunes on my truck and like them so far, nice and smooth feeling to them how the power comes on.

I'm running gearhead with mini maxx in my manual 6.4. Been a couple weeks now and I love it.. Along with my new south bend clutch and 5inch exhaust I can't keep my foot out of the fun pedal.

Tunes are insanely clean.. Only time I see smoke is when my tires blow off and my boost and rpms spike. And even then it's not nearly as much smoke as the HD tunes

Thanks for the input guys! I'll be getting the tunes soon. Jordan, I think we're going to have to hold up on the turbos for a bit, especially if I want to get the tunes before scheid lol
