Everybody keeps talking about keeping the tuner turned down while towing. I don't understand. I keep my six-gun on 6 at all times, and now my boat is only about 4500 lbs, but I only see egts at about 800 degrees at 65 and peak at 950 when going up hill or picking up speed. Banks claims 155 hp and 350 lb/ft at level 6 on the lb7 engine. Of course, I don't pin it all the time, and drive conservatively. So what benefit do you get with a lower tune setting? For me, I see better numbers on the higher tunes.
