Beefcake,
Thanks for your response! =]
There's an authorized Lund tuning dealer 30~ish miles from my area (GT Performance @ Stanton). Due to my unpleasant email-tune experiences, my next step, if no person in the forums can help with alleviating my issue, will be to have my car tuned by a rep...
Instead of explaining, I will copy/paste an email I sent to Justin @ BAMA performance of my problem:
***************************************************************
Hello Justin,
You and I spoke a few days ago with the issue I was having with my vehicle, and you were VERY quick to respond...
Thanks Alex,
Cleared a few things up for me. I think I'll feel most comfortable and at peace of mind if I take it to a Mustang tuning shop and speak to a professional in person - possibly get a tune there as well.
***UPDATE***
Received new tune.
Rides the same under 3000 RPM (just like the first tune from bama). Slower and poorer response than bone stock. I'm done with this. Don't mind it. Whatever. Will take it to a shop in Anaheim.
Regarding the Ford tune overriding, hopefully Beauxxl1200 can get...

Charles,
When you have your car in Sport mode, and you toggle back to normal mode it will revert back to our Bama Performance tune in normal mode. You do not have to reload the tune in...
Dabears 2322, that's mind-boggling!
I receieved an email from Andrew saying otherwise (view 1st page of thread).* I also contacted Bama via phone and Justin (I THINK that was his name) also said otherwise. Also, via phone, the rep said SCT is working on it - not Bama. Wtheck?
I hope you're right.
Thanks Jewishthunder for your experience and take on the tune.
I agree with everything you're saying in your second paragraph.
Regarding the sluggishness, my guess is that in the initial "what mods do you have" form (prerequisite to receiving the complete tune) the Bama team overlooked my...
I should be getting the revised tune tomorrow (which was recommended to me, and is exactly the same as what I previous ordered, by the way lol). Tomorrow marks the 5th business day since I received confirmation of mail-order-tune.
Hopefully that fixes atleast the sluggish, squishy, slow...
Still waiting for Bama to answer this question i replied back with:
Since toggling the car from normal to sport mode makes Ford's tune override Bama's, what happens when i switch back to normal drive? Do i have to upload the tune everytime i accidentally toggle the car to sport mode, then back...
Would love some more feedback from you guys. Especially those with the following mods:
-3inch exhaust
-jlt cai
-bama tune with sct tuner
I mean, this is ridiculous. 8-10mpg street. Poor acceleration. Just sheer confusion. Anyone else experiencing this?
Thanks in advance guys.

Charles,
Thanks for emailing in. Our tunes only effect the car when the car is in normal mode. When you switch to Sport mode, the Ford factory tune overrides our tunes, and you will be in the Ford factory sport mode tune. SCT is working on this...
***Important update for those unaware***
If in fact there are a dozen posts on this like you said, and you still believe the tune works on all drive modes, i have some bad newz.
Contacted Bama.
Ford's tune WILL override JLT/Bama tune once car is toggled to sport mode. Was advised that JLT...
Couple questions that's been really bugging me...
Relevant-to-post mods:
-Stainless works 3inch catback
-JLT CAI
-BAMA Tune
1. Installed tune. Car runs VERY slow under 3000 RPM, and seems like no gains have been made past 3000 RPM. Very hard to get in to 1st gear (after mods) - What...
Got my pin for x-plan.
Thanks all for the feedback. I got what I needed from this thread - ballpark range for buyout price.
Can't tell you guys how helpful you all were, esp. the guy that provided screenshot.
:clap2::headbang::ford::hail:
Hmm.
I read somewhere that you have to have been a member of the Mustang Club of America for at least 60 days for you to receive the x-plan.
Is this true?
:help:
Hello all. I just made a $500 deposit to ordering my new mustang, and will review the price, etc. with the dealer 2 days from today!
