Ok, So your using Bama and Yoyo tunes. That explains everything. There's no surprise there. Have you ever run a Lund Tune? I suggest you try one before telling people they will be slow and poor drivability without revisions.

I datalogged my tune. It is spot on first try. No need for a 3 week relationship over a car with 2 mods. They give you a weak base tune and than fine tune it to perfection. Lund just saves the games and give you a perfect tune from the gate.

Hey guy I merely stated my experience.

Also its YOLO not yoyo.

No need to be a dick about people being slow, you're the one running mid 11's....

That's like doing one pull on the dyno and saying your tune is done and perfect. By the way your getting trolled hard with the yolodouchebag tune rofl.

You're going to get different opinions based on mods & experience. My experience was not positive so I won't name the tuner but it seems there are a few that tune very well. That being said, I have the JLT on my Roush s/c and quite possibly the reason my car stalls regularly. Not sure how the N/A set up is

I'm trying to ask if you really really like it.


I have just cai and exhaust. been through some shitty times with other tuners. installed lunds tune.i datalogged to see personally what was going on than ran it at the track. was very impressed compared to stock tune and other tunes I paid for. no drivability issues also... the sct is in a box somewhere.that mess I went through is over.

You have to remember,

1) The tunes are very repeatable, Just as ford doesn't datalog their tunes after you buy a car do they? If 20 people put the exact same CAI on their car, and that's it, they all should react the same.

2) The cars have built in widebands that compensate fuel and timing. the cars will add / pull timing based on fuel quality / knock.

These are the first cars that really give you good datalogging ability, but in reality, they need datalogging less than any other previous model.

That said, Lund is happy to review any logs that you want to send in to have looked at.

Your not "leaving power on that table", if the car is happy and wants to add timing it will, if it wants to pull timing due to knock, it will. And it's striving to get to the a/f ratio that you want it to get to.

So, you think, because you lucked out and your tune is "spot on" that this happens with each and every Lund tune? lol ok! I've read numerous complaints of people getting shit Lund tunes, and he won't even look at their logs, until they keep harassing him


to Mr. Beefcake, let's be honest here, if you were selling tunes from a tuner that would not tune w/o datalogs, you'd be saying the exact opposite........

Coyote guys are spoiled. They really are. You guys act like no one ever tuned a car before widebands were put in.

I'll say it again. These cars are less likely to need a datalog than any previous mustang ever. The cars correct for timing and fuel.

Unless you input something that is just wrong, and it does happen. I had a customer that forgot to tell us he had a jlt and his car ran like crap. But, we didn't need a datalog to see that, he told me the car just ran bad, I emailed him the mod list, asked him to verify, and he told us he forgot about the jlt.

Problem solved.

But again, we are happy to look at a datalog, the chances of a change being necessary on an n/a combo is very unlikely though.

Isn't that why most people here have a aftermarket tune.. because the stock tune is horrible. Laggy throttle response etc...

I'm not trying to start anything here.

but its the same crappy tune on each car, lol.

so, if you change the throttle response in the tune to react 30% sooner, or add 2 degrees of base timing, etc... it is going to do, what you told it to do, and if we do that on 10 cars, it's going to do it on all 10 cars the same way.

people need to learn to tune their own crap if its such a big deal.

All these threads about tuners make me laugh.

The amount of blind allegiance in this community is shocking.

Building a tune is not as complex or magical as everyone seems to think.

too funny

If you have a bone stock car, with no mods and we tune it
and the next guy has a bone stock car with no mods on it, and we tune it, both will have the same custom tune.

If you have a bone stock car with a jlt and we tune it, and the next guy has a bone stock car and we tune it, both will have the same custom tune.

If we have a great custom calibration we have developed for a particular combo, why would someone get something different?

now, where the difference will come into play would be a special request, for example, you want your car to shift sooner, later, etc. something along those lines.

I think you are blinded by what you have been told and see on the forums, terry is correct.

Simple bolt on's car to car there should be no real difference. With lund you can datalog and send it in and if there is something wrong or needs tweaking it will be corrected. Very simple process. When you have a tuner that tunes 20 cars to every 1 that another tuner does you might have to realize he see's more of these and knows them like the back of his hand.
