I think you'd have to ask those that have upgraded major mods and run Tony Wildman tunes. I don't have proof, just inter-web talk. But yes, I think they get re-burns for free. As far as effort, I'd say spot on effort from what I have read.

Nope... I dont have a F-5 anymore... Traded it for a Scan gauge...

But it also cost me a HPOP and a HPO res... So I think he got the better end of the deal...

Wish we could up load a PDF here... I have a very interesting one that would fit right in here...

Lets leave it at 120hp tune and timing that goes off the graph...LOL... Errrr

Edit: Not to get off track, just asking real quick.

As soon as I have time the Dual pumps are going on, WOP QSSB turbo and bigger injectors.

Being stock is over and now its mine to play with.

You just said that the graph wasn't any of your tunes, and that what you posted must be wrong. It appears that you were running a junk engine and it broke while using DP and you're looking for a reason to point fingers. Maybe you were being sarcastic. For us newbs it seems that what you've been touting as too much timing isn't an accurate statement. Then to top it off you're complaining about live tuning and reburns but you've never were live tuned by Jody.
I don't know what to think about all that, other than one should be careful before drawing any conclusions when people start typing on the inturdweb.

You may be 100% correct. It seems there's no proof of anything really though.

I'm off to bed, I tire of this now.

Nice! I'm sure Diane will love rolling that around when you get it dialed in.

So the Adrenaline worked out and now you are going bigger? To what, Termy's?

Aside from this guy's thread being completely hijacked by uber tuner drivel, it is interesting. I'd still like to know why he quit his tuner.

Does this mean you get 90% of what the truck's got at 60% of the accelerator pedal depressed?


Do any of you running tuners haul horses? Do your horses load well?

I am trying to find her something now. While its down she needs something to drive that's big. I sold my F450 and the Mach 1 doesn't go to the ball field very well with the bags and cleats.

The graph is not from my tunes... Should I have lied? Does that make the data any less truthful?

I said it must be wrong in sarcasm...


It appears that you were running a junk engine and it broke while using DP and you're looking for a reason to point fingers.

Nothing wrong with the build... Several who have looked at it will say the same.


Maybe you were being sarcastic. For us newbs it seems that what you've been touting as too much timing isn't an accurate statement.

Maybe your right... Maybe I am lying about the whole timing thing...

Then to top it off you're complaining about live tuning and reburns but you've never were live tuned by Jody.

Your right, I should not say anything about paying $1000 for live tuning over a few years... when others can do it for half that and keep the block together.

I don't know what to think about all that, other than one should be careful before drawing any conclusions when people start typing on the inturdweb.

Your right, be careful what you believe, go ask all the tuners, all the guys that have run one tuner or another... Check out the guys who have switched tuners and ask them why...

Look at the failure data when Bill posts it up...
