Ok, let me know if I have any of this wrong. With the Roush tune all is good. With an aftermarket tune the car stumbles at a repeatable rpm range and throws codes. Is that right?

yes had new tunes written and re-written ...throughs code that say ecu is bad then codes of mifires then coil pack trouble ..none of it makes sense.....the car at around 3000 rpm some times when you punch it will hold back stumble break up for like 3 seconds then boom clear to 6500 then other times you punch it from 2000rpm and its fine to redline ...really frustrating the car is an 05 roush stg 1 with an m90 on it ...

Sounds like a corrupted tune, not the PCM.

+1, this happened on my 08 SGT. Tillman and Lund told me it was a bad wiring harness, then a bad pcm. after months of :handjob: from them I had the SGT piggy backed to JPC. Kevin and Justin had it running with in 24hrs with the same wiring harness and pcm :thumb:

These guys..know their shit. My car is worked on by me only, but I get tuned by JPC and Kevin MacDonald, period. They are the 3 valve professionals.
