    SFT Tuning Vs. Box Tunes.

    Great! Good to know. Apparently I misunderstood your, "we all know the answer". After reading you GDE reputation I assumed you meant the answer to be GDE. There goes that "assumed" getting me in trouble again. However, I still don't get how your reply answered Parity's question of why do...

    SFT Tuning Vs. Box Tunes.

    John, We all know the fine reputation of GDE, what is the purpose of your post? When you say, "How many in CA would have it if they could? I think we all know the answer.", you might be surprised. Not only does SFT cost less, but SFT also has features that GDE does not have and some for...

    SFT Tuning Vs. Box Tunes.

    They just can't accept that there's a tune besides GDE that is as good, maybe better. I had the GDE hot tune and it was great. That said, the longer I use my SFT tunes the more satisfied I am and their service is outstanding.

    SFT Tuning Vs. Box Tunes.

    fxclm5 I thought I read where an owner (because of your posts?) did say his GDE tuned truck caught fire. The caveat was the fire was not caused by the tune, however, I don't think he said what caused the fire. And if I remember right, his post came up shortly after GDE said no GDE tuned trucks...

    How to engage “ESC & TCS Off" with SFT tune

    Didn't like the above layout and this site doesn't allow for pp, indents, etc so have att a Word doc that will make it easier to read. Same info as above but maybe easier to read. Oops, site doesn't allow a word doc attachment. So, converted to a PDF doc

    How to engage “ESC & TCS Off" with SFT tune

    Here's another great feature of the SFT ECM tune not available in the other tunes. How to engage “TCS Off” or “ESC & TCS Off" with a Stock tune or the SFT tune: STOCK TUNE: 2WD, 4WD AUTO & 4WD LOCK ------ “TCS Off” - Press “Traction Control” switch whenever needed...

    ECM BOLT

    What John said plus: My dealer has removed and reinstalled my stock and GDE tuned ECMs several times. The first time it was removed the bolts were "factory" tight, very hard to loosen. Those bolts have marks on them from the factory and the dealer - if you are really anal about it, install...

    EcoDiesel OBD II Flashing now available.

    cds13ca, Sorry if I misinterpreted your comment, "SKT slipping in ads to promote their product all the time" sounded like bashing to me. The other forum IMHO has gone way too far with their negative SFT comments and I assumed you were bringing more of the same to this forum. I assumed...

    EcoDiesel OBD II Flashing now available.

    This thread started about and discussed PPEI for 7 pages with no input from SFT. In the last 2 pages, I counted 4 "comments from people using SKT's" and zero "SKT slipping in ads". All of SFT's comments were responding to questions and merely extending their 20% discount for the posting...

    Unhappy with Performance after Emissions Recall Update

    Ram for Life asked, "How is the tune working for you now ? " I thought he answered that, I know I saw his answer somewhere. Basically, his issues were all self-inflicted. That is, he forgot to install the TCM tune. Once he got it all corrected he was very satisfied with the SFT tunes and...

    Engine sound foam removal

    Wow! If that was due to the cover being removed (only 4 hours) mine should've melted the hood by now. Hard to believe but can't refute the photo. Cover & foam removal has been discussed extensively on another forum and there were no mentions of hood or paint damage due to the cover being...

    Engine sound foam removal

    I've had it off traveling the length of CA to OR in October heat at 80 mph and not seen any heat damage to the hood. If the engine could produce that much heat I would think it would melt the plastic engine cover.

    Engine sound foam removal

    I removed all my foam and the plastic engine cover. Did not cut the driver side, loosened the stuff holding it down. Took extra effort but worth saving it intact if ever sell or trade-in, can put back to stock condition.

    I feel like I'm talking to the wall, GDE also got caught in a lie, called hin a clown - so unprofessional. I guess you believe "BS" is also not a negative comment? I'm done - Cheers!
