Another happy 5 Star customer

Great customer service and an excellent custom program for my 2008 F-350 V-10. I bought the X3 and I'm running the 87 octane program. Mike customized the program so that when the tow/haul mode is engaged the transmission won't shift into overdrive. That feature makes towing the travel trailer so much easier.

The program also fixed the issue of the torque converter clutch unlocking when going downhill.

The engine feels more powerful, the transmission shifts great. Mike was great to work with and will be there to answer any questions you may have.

Man, you guys are making me sick.

The 5 star tuner is quickly moving up my "gonna get" list. I take care of some land for my Mom so tractor parts are killing me right now. Every time I drive my truck I am thinking about the tuner.

It will happen before the end of the year. (I keep repeating this over and over)
