[QUOTE="ExTurbo, post: 13528147, member: 53275"] So i ordered an intake/tuner combo which included the SCT x3 tuner and an airaid intake. First off the intake was engineered very well, looks and sounds great on the car. My issue comes in after i uploaded the new Tune from what i thought was a reputable company ( i wont share the name as it doesnt really matter, from what i understand after doing some reading and talking to some people in the area, is that i never should have bought anything from them in the first place...) Anyway long story short, i did and now im a little unhappy with the way the car is behaving. there seems to be a "dead spot" in the throttle now, which is driving me crazy. Also when i blip the throttle for a downshift it doesnt seem to be as responsive. I'm thinking someone messed with the throttle mapping and screwed something up along the way. I could be wrong, maybe its just a characteristic of the intake, but ive been around the block a few times and have a feeling its the tune. What are my options here? can i take the SCT tuner to someone who knows what they are doing or do i have to purchase a new tuner. I dont know mustangs i come from the HP tuners world of LS engines...are these SCT tuners locked or can a new program be overwritten? do i need to buy a new SCT tuner? Thanks in advance [/QUOTE]
