Same here. It's not much of a power boost (no surprise, that only happens with turbos) but the transmission remapping actually lets it rev out some.

That’s good to hear. I just put 33s on mine and at altitude… it struggles. Been looking pretty hard at OTT.
Went with standard plus, so it’s mild and throttle response is not overly sensitive.
YotaWerx most aggressive here. Running 33s and living in the hills. The tune made hill and mountain driving livable. The GX transmission could still use some work, but the tune made it so I no longer want to wreck the truck every time I have to go uphill.

Yay winch! 90 lbs is heavy.
I have the medium OTT tune with 33s (285/70/17s) plus the extra weight of front/rear bumpers, skids, sliders, etc.
I think with my setup, its dealers choice between the mild or medium throttle response . I'm enjoying the medium and think it feels like a good sports car throttle. It is responsive, but not snappy and allows for pretty precise modulation with my ballerina-esque size 13s.
should be 60-70 once synthetic line is on

You DO have the synthetic, right?
I've had both, currently mounted is a SmittyBilt X2O-10K (waterproof), and I'll NEVER have wire cable line again on a winch! Between the weight, wire splinters, not floating (when the line is in the water), and dangers when it snaps, don't know why anyone would ever get a winch with wire cable.

With all due respect, how much was your winch? It is a 10k lb winch, right? I couldn't get all the winch info off your photo.
My winch on Amazon was less than the current price of $576.19, since I purchased it seven years ago.
But still, it's waterproof AND comes with synthetic line! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00K150VAI?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_1
Unless you have money to burn, really love Warn, or it came with a no return policy, if it were me, I'd return it for the SmittyBilt.

Smittybilt compressors are definitely problematic. My experience with the compressor was so bad I also have a bad taste in my mouth for their products.
Being an Inside Track Club member at HF, I'll likely just snag a Badlands 12,000 for ~$400-500 when they have a mega-sale and it's close to winch time. The Bandlands seems to get rave reviews and I'm not sure there is a cheaper winch out there which is also so lauded.

Almost everyone in my club uses some variety of Warn. When I realized the VR 10s were so inexpensive, it was an easy decision.
I'm running 31.6" (265/70R17). I went with the mildest throttle remap OTT has. It's still a little touchy right off idle in some circumstances. If I had access to tuning software I'd fix it, but it's not terrible. I hated the Throttle Commander even in the mildest mode. I like a progressive throttle, especially on a vehicle that's supposed to be operated on low traction surfaces. Other people may have different ideas.
when I bought my winch last year, the 90 day warranty for HF deterred me. I understand you can get extended warranty, but once that cost was added, it was the same cost as the Superwinch 10k winch with synthetic rope, which is what I ultimately choose.
