You don't need too...one great tuner already posted in this thread currently holds the SBE P1x and SBE H/C/I NA record.

Good tuners for the 6th gen platform are:

Ted Jenetty @ JRE
Brett Stewart @ Pray Porting
Ryan Stevens @ GPI
Rick Clarke @ Unlimited Performance

Good info but no remote tunes for me .. Not that they can't do the job because they can .. I like to be there at the dyno when the tune is done , plus the guys I use to tune come to the track with me and make any adjustments to the tune if needed...

I tune bikes and after the tune on my dyno I always go to the track with them to make adjustments if needed ..

I will keep you in mine when I'm ready for a tune ..No blower this time , just bolt on stuff this time around ..I don't want to blow my warranty until they have a real fix for the 8A TC problem .. I killed my warranty in my Mustang at 500 miles adding the blower and they would not touch my car for any warranty .. They flagged my Vin number and no dealer would touch it .. The price you pay for a 9 second car :(

Update: Sorry, I didn't mean to hijack this thread...I just figured I had the same problem, so why not chime in. Misery loves company. Anyways..

I took your guys advice, I got a new tuner. I reached out to Rick Clarke Unlimited Performance and I'm sure glad I did. Rick responded within minutes. I gave him my list of mods and a current datalog. After looking at the datalog he said, "it's going to be so much faster". I had a tune emailed to me within 20 mins.

Loaded the tune and made a pull. Holy Hell. It's a whole new car. I can actually feel the supercharger now. As an added bonus..his tune fixed my transmission shifting issues I had where the car would surge/slip/buck/not engage when shifting at part throttle above 4000 RPMS.. unless WOT.

I sent a datalog as requested. Some tweaks were made and had a new tune emailed back to me within 30 mins. Loaded tune, car flat out screams. Sent another datalog back and he said we're good to go...everything looks good.

Six months of headaches solved in under under a day with a good tuner.

Rick was professional, courteous and prompt and lets not forget his tune simply rocks. I highly recommend Rick Clarke for your tuning needs.

Good deal...now ya know I am not BS'ing ya because we have exchanged a few pm's over different topics. I have had a few guys pm me logs and one quick look shows the tuner is a hack. This is far more common then you would think. It's pretty sad guys out there charging big money for tuning and don't know what they are doing with Gen5 stuff. Glad it's dialed in now!!

Yes we have. I've always been grateful and trusted your feedback. I'm extremely glad you said what you said about my tune. It's what I was waiting for. I needed someone else to look at it besides my tuner. I wish I would've acted sooner.

Update, it went back to the tuner and it had a cracked intake manifold, no telling how much power I was losing, I couldn't even hear it over the procharger, but it makes sense now, it was so bad it felt like the transmission was slipping in the upper gears, glad it was a easy fix, can't wait to get it back to the track
