That's exactly what they're gonna do, all it does it pull timing and turns
your truck into a pig, don't do it!!! I've already made it abundantly clear
to my dealer that they are not to touch my pcm, I don't care what DC tells
them. There's a few guys that had a dealer do this to their trucks without
even telling them, and left them wondering what happened to their
performance. I'd say unless you're having serious problems with it, don't
let them re-flash your truck, but that's just my opinion :)
