Problems with steeda tune.

[Oxwhite5.0]

Anyone have probelms with their tunes or other vendors?

My car is behaving odd when in 4th or higher around 2k to 3.5k, when you go wot or even put slight load the car bogs and does not want to accelerate. I have pulled a few logs and sent to steeda but I have never come across this when tuning other vehicles.

Pedal position shows high 90s but timing stays around 45 and knock sensor is detecting nothing. Rpms slowly rise as in a crawl, absolutely no power. Also there is a hesitation in 3rd gear when accelerating for about half second and it doesn't pull very hard. Only mods are steeda intake without restrictor and mbrp catback.

Dunno if I should order another tune from another vendor or wait the 3-5 days for a revision and run the restrictor for now lol.

Have attached a few logs from livelink also, you can see where it bogs completely at wot

Just got off the phone with beefcake, the fact that he called me at 7pm speaks alot to their customer service. Needless to say placing an order for a Lund tune through them.

Lund makes a great tune with the unrestricted Steeda intake.

When this occurs what is the oil temp at? Low? Normal? Just wondering.

I have a Lund tune and I noticed that if I attempted to accelerate too quickly after turning the car on it would buckle during the acceleration. With obvious reasons of course. But this may just be a case of not giving the car enough time to warm up. After the initial warm up period the car performs excellent. Any thoughts OP?

Mine did the same thing but it went away with the SCT preloaded 93 octane tune. When I went flashed the Lund tune, it ran like it did stock when cold (not very good). I havent sent the data logs for fine tuning to Lund yet so perhaps that will be addressed. For whatever reason, the SCT tune runs great.

As much as I like my Lund tunes, at least give Steeda a chance to update your tune if you haven't already.

Yes there is already a revised tune being worked on by the guys at Steeda. And I have a Lund tune coming also. This was just a brainstorming thread for the most part as I'm not familiar with tuning fords yet, my last car used uprev so I am still learning. Its not a Steeda issue persay its just a tune issue, could happen to anyone was just checking to see if others had had the same issue. Not knocking anyone or any company.

Car was at operating temp, regardless it did not matter the temp it just doesn't open the tb fully for some reason is my guess.
