    I’d also like to add I don’t know how they verified the timing but they said the timing was ok and that the p0345 and p0349 don’t have anything to do with being timing related. They also brought up that my newer NGK o2 sensors were throwing slow to respond codes which wasn’t there before when I...

    Here’s an update I brought the car back to the shop and they’re saying the timing is good and the cps is good. They told me the pcm isn’t reading the cps sensor and that the ecu is bad or the alternator may be bad. Does this make any sense? And could any of that affect how the cars runs/power.

    The shop just now got back to me after several emails and phone calls saying they were looking into the issue. They want me to bring it my sct x4 so they can download a different tune and want me to flash it into my car. Keep in mind this is after paying $600 for a custom dyno tune to a shop...

    I was expecting around 350, the car feels slower than it was when I dropped it off. I think they’ve timed it wrong. Probably by accident

    I just checked the sensors and wiring. Both sensors are working and the issue is isolated to the drivers side. I couldn’t see any issues with the wiring and connections either. I’m debating if I want to take the drivers side valve cover off to see if the timing marks line up. Then I can tell the...

    The car only has 78,000 miles(it’s an 07). Never had an issue with anything like that until now. I’m really starting to get frustrated, especially after paying $600 for a custom dyno tune. If I pull the valve cover off is there anyway to tell if the chain and sprocket were aligned correctly? A...

    Here’s an update…they’re telling me to drive the car for a while and see if anything else shows up. They also said the cam sensor is probably bad. Weird how it goes “bad” after they installed the cam.

    That’s good to hear, hopefully the shop fixes it and gets the tuning right. From what I understand these cams are easier to tune than the thumpers and Mutha thumpers.

    Is there anything technical that hasn’t already been mentioned I should ask the shop?

    I just got an email back from the shop saying the car drove fine when they tested it and they want me to send all the codes. I disagree with them because the codes and performance say otherwise. I’ll update here when I can.

    I’d like to add they also only gave me one dyno run, with one dyno sheet. So how could they have possibly tuned it correctly/precisely? Im contacting the shop today. The car has jlt series 3, steeda cmdp and under drive pullies, 1-3/4 inch long tube headers and offroad x, msd coils and brisk...

    I’ll be asking a lot of questions tomorrow that’s for sure. Makes me wonder if they just slopped it together and threw in a generic tune. Or worse installed the cams wrong.

    I surely hope they installed them correctly. They’re a fairly well established mustang speed shop so I hope it’s the tune.
