Last Friday, Black Bear Performance E-mailed me the tunes for the ECM and TCM. I had to work all weekend, so I didn't get them downloaded until Monday night. Test drive went well. Tonight, I drove to work. The shifts are crisper and more positive feeling. As for the engine, well, on the highway, this thing HAULS!!!
Noteworthy things about the tunes:
-disabled AFM
-raised idle speed in gear to 600-625RPM
-locked out TCC until 5th and 6th gears
-speed limiter raised to 120MPH

why only 120?

Because I am a chicken-sh*t. I will do 140 in my 928. I am nervous to go above 120 in my Escalade.
meh, I have had my Denali up to 140 then ran out of runway, she had a little more in her still not a lot but one of these days.....
the only thing I haven't upgraded for it is the driveshaft I have to go out of town for that also one of these days..... lol

Same. Don't think I'd want to go much faster in the land yacht. I believe my Denali speed limiter is around 111 or 114. I had to find it when I first bought it. I don't think Ive seen it since.

Glad you like the blackbear tune. He did my 2006 Denali XL in 2017 and it was the best money I’ve spent on the truck! So worth the money. Tune really wakes up the 6.2!

I saw you mentioned cabin air filter replaced by the dealer. GM never installed the CAF in any of the 07-14 Escalade. It’s a common upgrade option they offer though.
Either a previous owner installed a CAF on your truck or the dealer never changed it because the add on kit wasn’t there. They do work well. Once you clean all the dust off the diffuser vents, they’ll stay clean.
