Do you have thier intakes because these trucks need a tune for the intake. Or they tune it for a intake and you dont have one give them a call .I would like to know what happened .I need to get a good tune pretty soon

Should have went with a Nelson Tune!! 
The TBSS should be running a lot better than that with a custom tune and a cat-back system.
Your tuner isn't tuning right. The tune alone should have made you grin after it was installed. The seat-of-the-pants feel should be way up there as well.
I'd either have him retune it or change tuners! How much TM did he remove??
I would have at least 80% or 100% of TM removed from the factory program.
That will definately wake it up!
I had my tuner start with removing 80% of TM when my truck had 2,500mi on it. His tune just amazed me. I didn't think there was that much actually to be had from just tuning it. The SOTP feel went way up there!
When I hit about 14,000 miles, I had him remove 100% of TM. That change even gave me a seat-of-the-pants feel and harder firmer shifts.
Sorry, but get a better tuner.

Wow, once you get the intake let us know how the tune works. Ya I heard the TBSS are a little tricky to tune. I am thinking of a Victor tune but as soon as thier Intake is ready.
