I know a while back they had issues with the CW Tunes which was remedied by closing the throttle blade at various points and open it much slower to keep from having the issue with winter blend gas,just a thought.  Z

That excuse would not fly with me...but whatever its not even worth arguing over....my throttle is open all the time regardless of cold temps

Im really getting sick and tired of hearing lms talk about the fuel system being maxxed out on pump gas at the low levels of boost they run on their 3 bar tunes

Maybe the average person will buy that bs but i know better...and when anyone suggest they run harder than lms they will just say its not safe and thats garbage too

Id have much more respect for lms if they just said the level of power that is available with our tune is the most we are comfortable releasing in a mass produced non custom tune rather than saying they are running the fuel system at max capacity which is wrong
Hello, I don't really know you but constantly see you bashing LMS. Have you been tuning ecoboosts long or have a shop? I'd love to have you tune my SHO or maybe even my Lightning.

It is what it is my good friend.  Z     :)

I suppose...guess i should get over it...it shouldnt bother me because im not even a customer but it bugs me when it looks like lms doesnt even want to give the people a chance when they say they are having issues with the tune..i would be open to ideas and suggestions rather than saying it simply cant be the tune then issue revisions
They always have done the right thing by me IMHO,thats your perogative. BTW did not even get a welcome from you.  Z   :(

Even if this is true, makes them at least a 1,000% better than most of the so-called professional tuners out there.  Oh the horror stories out there!!!

And, just to be clear, let's let go of this topic, AJ.  If you have specific instances you wish to address, from a technical point of view, that's fine.  IE, state the problem and state your proposed solution.  It may or may not be well received, and that's fine.  Obviously, you won't be stopped from having your say (not our intent on this forum), but let people decide what they want after that.  If they want to be convinced, they will let you know :)

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

I usually make fun of cut outs but I think on a turbo car like an eco-boost they might help.  I'm not going to be the lab rat though.

Cutouts already proven to work on the EB, Mike (EcoPowerParts) did that on his Flex using electronically controlled units.  But yeah, it can be annoying on the street :)

Here's what Mike's design looks like. Replaces the third cat, adjustable boost activated (set to start opening where you want and wide open at WOT), and can be set up with a manual solenoid switch to prevent opening at all.
