P0172 and P0175 codes are for a rich condition in both banks. Are you sure you have E85 in the tank and not gasoline?

P061A/B are torque discrepancy codes.

Who is your tuner?

Well bama isnt highly regarded, but what are all your mods? The tuner knows of every mod and all information about your car right? 2018+ have port and direct injection, not sure if the tuner could have sent you a file made for 2015-2017 or what but overall this isnt a good sign for the tuner, especially if its some simple setup.

Not sure if being in colorado could have anything to do with it but the air is pretty thin there.

Was the tank completely empty when you filled it with E85?

I wouldn't recommend Bama for anything.

Yea it was completely empty
Just call your tuner, they will make it right.

The majority of the base files have been established. Bama is probably using the same base file as say Lund, PBD, etc. You have money into Bama then just continue unless things really hit the fan.

You have just a couple of mods, shouldn't be that difficult to revise. Even though remote tuning is normal for all tuners, they will admit its not ideal. They would rather have it on a dyno and get their eyes on everything.

+1 for calling Wengerd. The money you spend with him will be 10x better than that Bama crap. Count it as a loss and get your car right before you are paying for another engine.
