I have been lurking for a few days and I have noticed an unusual coincidence. Quite a few Predator tunes made by James at RWTD seem to have an repeating problem stumbling on WOT around 4500 RPMs - and no real response from RWTD to correct it. I haven't seen this much with other tuners, but may be wrong. I was thinking about getting a tune from James, but in light of all the issues there seems to be I think I will pass. It would be very annoying to me to have my car fall on it's face on a WOT pull next to an LS1 :nonono:

Any input on this, or if other tuners tunes are doing this as well?

Thanks,
Dan

never had this problem from his tunes, and i'm on my 5th. It may have something to do with KB / Whipple cars that are using a BAP though. If so trim the fuel back on the BAP to around 30% and see if it still does it.

I dont know much about mustangs, but I do know a little bit about cars w/ eaton blowers. If someone installs a new pulley (and therefore boosts PSI and charge temps) they may be getting knock retard and the car is pulling timing.

Well I just ordered a 2.93 pulley from Billetflow and tune from James at RWTD. Should have all installed by weekend. I hope everything will work fine. I talked to james last night and I felt pretty confident with him. So we will see.
