Good choice with the tuner. They do a lot more on auto 3.9,5.2,5.9 engines than any other. I had a tuner, but they don't do a whole lot for manual 4.7's, so I sold it.

Yeah, I got the tracking number I cant wait!! Can someone answer this I wanna keep my 190 stat and just use the sct and see what I get from that first then ill switch over to the 180, will I be fine doing that like computer adjusting for the tuner and stat? I know its kinda a silly question but im thinking like ok day 1 the sct will get added and tested then day 2 ill switch to the 180 stat would the computer be able to handle the adjustments. maybe im just over thinking this lol

YESSSSS, just know that you wont get full potential untill that 180tstat is in there. i run 89 octane on my 91 tune. my 87 tune is just terrible.

Those 4.7's are just too picky we will see how the ole 5.2 puts up with it.

Loaded up the 91 tune(running on 89 gas). Def way faster throttle response! Exhaust seems louder(maybe its just me lol) Looking at 0-60 times seems about the same tho maybe a 1 sec different. Shifts hard at 5100 rpm seems to pull really good after about 40-50mph. I think will be better once I do 180 stat and get to a better flat surface. I need a set of gears the 32's dont help. I did notice a huge difference in O/D it doesnt lug like it used too. Im downloading a new video editing program so ill have it up in 2 hrs or so. When I find my good flat road ill load up the 93 tune and see how it does. So far no pinging Im thinking ill be alight with 87 as long as I mix some 89 or 91 into it(cause im too cheap to fill my tank on 89 haha)
