Keeps dyno speed down.

How does the car actually drive? Looking at graphs are one thing, but that's only a look at WOT.

Losing power from 4500rpm!!!!! Don't they usually keep making power up until 5500-6000! Well mine does anyways. Maybe a boost issue or just a chit tune either way you got ripped! Why not visit a reputable tuner who knows there chit!!!!

Well, took it back to the tuners today and had them take a look at it. Picked it up this afternoon and after talking to the tuner he completely agreed that the tune was all over the shop and said he jumped on the phone with Herrod to get an idea of what was going on. From the way he explained it to me, when tuning a Falcon you don't simply pull the stock tune out, modify it and then pump it back into the car you use something called a tear tag number printed on the sticker on the inside of the drivers side door to get a copy of what the stock map should look like and then go from there. He said that it was a combination of his software being out of date and my tear tag not correctly identifying the stock image in my ECU which meant the computer had no idea wtf to think when the tune was loaded in. So long story short is that after all the software issues were sorted the tune is a million times better and the graphs look exactly like I imagine they should with a smooth power curve pulling strongly all the way to redline.

For those who made constructive comments a big thank you.
