Detuned is a losely based term on how GM as well as other car makers have introduced software programs to lower the HP and TQ of the motors when they are driven. It is done to increase the longevity of the driveline components of the vehicles. If you have ever driven a "old style cable" actuated throttle body truck vs the newer drive by wire system it is very easy to feel the different way the similar trucks drove. Overall getting a tune by a reputable "tuner" will really wake up these trucks. Hope this clears things up.

Do you have a tune? Without one even the 6.2 get bogged down with how GM detunes the motors. Bottom line you need to get a tube to really get all the HP out of these trucks.

how do you know they are "detuned" ? why would they do that ?

 

Two words... "Torque Management" :D
