I have a 2013, live in Cali, and have a 44030. After some VIN drama that I was able to work out with help from members here, I was able to load the tune. With a full tank of 89 fuel I loaded the standard tune. Didn't feel much difference at all in performance. Finally today I was able to fill her up with 91, loaded up the premium tune and I got a trouble code that won't erase. So I called BD knowing that they hate the Cali issue. They told me sorry can't help, they want me to uninstall and exchange it with the vendor for a 44010. Apparently they are combining a bunch of rigs into that because it has the California EO number. Anyway, took all my info slowly through the call and now it's all recorded and logged under a case number. Any advise?

I'd have to agree with you california, I really don't feel any difference in power on any setting. The main thing I'm using my bully dog for now is to disable the MDS. I will definitely be selling the BD and buy another tuner when they come out. I had a Superchips on my 2010 ram and it was night and day difference when installed.
