Well, I waited near 6 weeks for my update. During which time my supercharger sat in the garage. I paid a tuner $500 for some tuning. I told him exactly what was on the truck and specifically told him that I wanted it safely tuned. Tune it a little rich and back down the timing to be safe. Well, after calling him twice, he assured me it was the intake system. I changed it to a factory airbox with a tube to the airdam to get fresh air. It still detonates badly. Now hopefully I wont have to wait another 6 weeks for the tune I originally asked for. Until then I guess Im parked. I couldve spent that money on a tuning program and done no worse myself. Very Dissappointed

 

that sucks, who was the tuner?

 

I dont want to slam him or his business yet, since he will hopefully rectify this situation with some 2 day shipping on a new tune. In my opinion a refund is pretty warranted, at least half. He obviously cant tune for what he said he could. It is running too much timing and too little fuel. This is 6 pounds. What is it going to take to get it tuned for 11# and alky. He said he could tune for this stuff. I now have to pay another 500 for tuning at least one more time (a local guy with dyno and wideband).

 

That sucks.... Hopefully you get the situation resolved.

 

I have a Superchip programmer for an 01 truck they sent with my SC you can have it for shipping if you want it.

 

We all know who the tuner is, but it is cool your not throwing the name out. I can see your frustration though. He's a good guy, and i'm sure he will do what it takes to give you a good tune.

 

Why would you get your money back? When you get a mail order tune, the possibility that the tune will have to shipped back for changes can happen. I don't know who the tuner is, but I don't think any tuner is going to give your money back unless the problem isn't resolved.
