This is hard to believe. I went to a local well known shop for tuning today on Mr. Gibbs we put the truck on the dyno with the mail order tune and the truck put down 324 HP and 345 TQ.
:hail We then installed a new computer and having the truck retuned it picked up 52HP over the mail tune. The truck Dynoed at 376HP and 395 TQ, on a MUSTANG Dyno is that unreal or what?
Well I am now a firm believer that the local shop tuning is the way to go with tuning, I have no more ABS lights flashing and the speedo is dead on perfect. I just can not tell you what a different truck Mr. Gibbs has become after this new tune. I just had to share my exciement and oh the 6 speed with the 410 gears in it now is just a blast to drive.
I just had to share my excitement with you all.

Man that is so true. It is unreal how much power was found above the factory tune and that it was done in real time on a DYNO.
I must say I am not too happy that I had to pay again BUT after that improvement it was well worth it and now I am going to have my other truck done. It a 5.3 with a 6 speed as well But it is not super charged.
It is so nice to cruise and not see that damn ABS Brake light on and the truck dinging at you becasue it is not happy.
CUDOS to the tuner.

It does feel good actually being there and watching your truck being tuned into a tire fring monster. I just can not tell you guys enough how long I have been waiting for this satisfaction from a tune. BRETT is a tuning GURO and made my truck run the best it has ever ran since I have owned it, all of this done in 1.5 hours.

Congrats man, I was in the same boat a while ago. A dyno tune is truely the best way to go for the best possible tune for your truck.
I can't imagine how much fun a manual 376 hp truck with 4.10 gears must be. Need track numbers now!
