Just wanted to know if any of the TBSS's on Camp Pendleton have hp tuners for a 2007 TBSS and willing to tune mine for me. Willing to throw down some cash for it.

Every tune is different, there are so many variances. His could have been running lean in the first place, I would email a good tuner and let them know the conditions your having and see if is in need of a tune. Hopefully it does need a tune cause tunes are awesome! Best bang for the buck.

I will keep everyone posted

I got a friend that just left a school probably 6 months ago and got there probly 4-5 months ago, his name is Byrd. Look out for him hes an O level avionics technician on the ch-46. I am an I level tech for f/a 18's here on MCAS beaufort.

I'm a little late to the party, but you've gotten some good advice. Each one these trucks is different. I haven't had a screen in my MAF since I first got it tuned, but I've run it for several weeks w/o a tune w/ my Jetttstream CAI still installed and never had a problem. You might try some spray MAF cleaner. It could have gotten dirty or oily.

A local tuner is obviously the most convenience choice, but don't be afraid of the mail order tunes from the reputable vendors here and on other sites: PCM4less & Vector have a lot of happy customers.
