Default Cortex 3950

I picked up the Cortex 3950 this morning for $200. Put 87 oct tune in it because i had a full tank of 87 in it. It definatly feels and shifts alot better. I was on the road all day today and burnt most of the tank so i'm going to fill it with 93 in the morning and put the 91 tune in.

I was looking through the Louisiana Sportsman Classified and ran across it by accident. i emailed him an offer of $200 and he took it. He also has a ramhamer intake 250.00 here's a link. http://www.louisianasportsman.com/lp...erm=cortex&cat=

Good find Jerry.

Now download that transmission tune with all the money you saved and experience a shift with 10% torque management

This is only temporary until HPTuners releases support for my truck. I talked to two friends of mine that are tuners that are using SCT and HPtuners to tune with. They both said to wait for HP. They are not crazy about SCT. Said they are limited to what they can do with it compared to HP.
