Danmk1 New Member 4 Member For: 8y 26d Posted 05/01/17 06:06 AM Share Posted 05/01/17 06:06 AM Bought a fgx turbo last year,got given a x4 flash tuner recently and have taken it too a local ford performance shop. For $240 got 2 tunes loaded, 12psi and 14psi.told to go home,charge battery and load it on but after reading some reviews of this shop blowing engines and so on, im a little worried to install anything . Is 14psi safe to run on stock engine? This is my first turbo vehicle so I can really say I have no idea! Confused and need help??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like pingtune haven't changed their ways... Get a custom dyno tune put onto your x4. It's absolutely worth the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As mentioned above and in many other threads, do not load email tunes into the ecu. You are better off getting the car tuned at a respectable tuna in your area. there are threads on the forum with respectable tunas in your area.

You have come to the right place. Steer clear of pingune in regards to those email tunes. Cut your loses now, cause $240 isn't that bad. Had your engine blown, it could have been more expensive. Where are you located? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
