Was he isolating automatic trannies? I read "them" and thought 'mustangs'.

Just wanted to post an update. Got dyno'd on the Bama tune and made 393whp and 368wtq. Check the video for the run and the dyno graph with both the bama and lund tunes overlayed on each other.

I await all the comments about the narration. This should be good.

Lololol was thinking the same thing but oh well. Gives people sometime to listen to while they look at the graph. For people who don't want to hear me sound retarded, they can hit "mute" hahaha.

LMAO, my only comment is, is that all that matters is your happy. I still think you should have given the Lund tune a chance. A few datalogs and it would be screaming. I know mine is.

Lol yeah. But to be honest, I sent datalogs. Got a revised tune almost a week later than I was told I would. Then sent datalogs on that tune and didn't get a response... It's not I didn't give them a chance... Either way like you said, I'm happy now so it's all good. Just sucks to be out $200 but oh well.

I agree with this, but it's also odd to me that BAMA can hit 15 HP higher w/out having to keep revising and datalogging. My point is, it seems like BAMA is better out of the box so to speak. Lund is better if you want to spend more time fine tuning. I don't know. I've never run a LUND tune, but I've always read good things. Honestly I've read good things about both companies so to me it's a good comparison.

Keep in mind, iceguy bought that tune the first week SCT had support for the 2013 cars. The file he's testing there is not what we are currently sending out. We've made some changes since then. Other than that, I don't really want to debate dyno numbers or comment on anyone elses tuning.

And this is not to offend iceguy, but as you can tell from his posts....I'll just say he moves quickly. I'm sure if he would have stuck by us we would have gotten him straightened out. But he decided to try someone else and I won't fault him for that.

jewc75 waited well over a week for a revision. Part of that is we are a 2 man team and you are dealing directly with us. We don't have customer service people etc. Most people prefer to deal directly with us.

But we are just getting way too big for that I suppose. Jon added me in February. That was big news.

But if you think that was big news, wait till you see what we have in store for you guys.

I move fast? Unfortunately I was having the opposite issue.... Lol. But seriously waiting a few days for a reply to datalogs is one thing, waiting more than a week is unacceptable in my opinion for even a reply, and it was over 2 weeks since I sent the datalogs that I made this post. I'm sorry I was kind of used to the customer service offered by Bama and when my updated tune was almost a week after you said it would be, that's when I was on the fence. Then no reply to the datalogs for over a week is why I switched. In all honesty, maybe you guys shouldn't take on so much or send out tunes that aren't as they should be... Not trying to be a dick. Just sayin...

Did AM write the script for the narration?

 

[ZmanM3]

If AM had anything to do with him other then sending a tune I'd never deal with AM again on principle alone.

Lol no they just did the tunes. I made this post without even telling them I was going to. Don't worry id never compromise my integrity for a paid endorsement. The facts just kind of speak for themselves lol.

You were skipped over. If you would have wrote back and asked for an update, you would have been taken care of. At that point, it wasn't a matter of time, your ticket was mis-filed and you would never have gotten a reply.

Should you have to ask for updates if you don't get a response? No. But if you would have, I would have gotten back to you.

Take too much on?

If you haven't noticed, Lund Racing doesn't have an online store. Lund Racing pays for ZERO advertising anywhere except for here on S197. And that's because this is the only place I hang out. So we are trying to take on as little as we can and we are still this busy.

But we are making plans for major expansion soon to meet the demand. Stay Tuned...
