I hooked my JLU up to my HPTuners RTD module just for some baseline numbers before I look to tuning options, and found something interesting. I am only seeing 76% throttle allowance on a full throttle pull. I DO have the manual but just upgraded to the ACT performance kit.
Questions for techs :
  1. Reckon they pulled throttle when they did the ECU update to control torque load for the exploding pressure plates?
  2. Would a piggyback or throttle controller open up full allowance, or will the ECM override the controller output, and I just need to go on and unlock/ tune?

for anyone that is curious, she got a 8.37 to 60mph with a lazy foot and traction control & 2WD only. I'd imagine the worst 60ft you have ever seen on paper. lol

I don't know but we could use reviews on the ACT clutch if you feel like writing one. (Regular or heavy flywheel?)

I think I could manage that once I’m back to my laptop.
