Sorry Fellas I'm a little behind with everything, right now I'm in the middle of Tuning the car with Ted, come to find out my dumbass don't know Wideband is required for WOT Tuning. Oh well I'm learning lol.
Anyway first Tune I got from him was like Damn, that's not my Car

that's how how good Ted really is.

Screw the Dyno's, if he tells me it's good that's how I leave it.
Comparing my original tune with his is like night and day.

Yes sir, a good tune on these cars makes ALL the difference in the world!! And Ted is one of the best at it.

Was your previous tune a canned one or from a local shop?

I bet it even idles better and a bit higher than it did. Last time you posted a vid of your exhaust it seemed to idle a bit too low for the cam you had. Should sound better now! Did you ever get your exhaust squared away? You said after installing the new system it was too quiet for you. lol.

Ahgghhhhhhh

I was curious as I had dynosteve do my tune but after the whole RDP fallout I lost my lifetime tune updates (what a pisser) so I'm looking at Ted and was curious if you also had a dynosteve tune originally.

My mod list is super minimal, with any amount of luck in going to smuggle some long tubes into my house this winter lol.

I just purchased FF 41's and 285 tires to go with them so I blew my annual car budget lol.

Yes it's a bit higher now especially on a cold start.
Exhaust sound a bit louder now, after I added a lill bit of water into the muffler and burned out some of the stuff in there lol.

All I can say is go with Ted 100%, you learn a lot from him too.
I was gonna go with Steve the first time around 2013 or so, but I went with Tick Performance in Mt Airy NC.
the other guy who did my second tune messed it all up.
No more Dynos for me, or at least for a while.
Throw the LTH on it get a Wideband and off to Ted you go lol
You won't regret it.

well if you are ever in or willing to travel to Rochester NY you can have my old set of speed engineering 1 7/8 headers. just need to order the off-road pipes. I think they are only $50.
