The reason I went with a PBD tune was I had a corrupted Roush tune installed at the dealer.

How did you know it was corrupt?

Wow, that sucks. Scary too.
Did they tell you it was a corrupt tune and updated it with the same tune or an updated tune?

Lose the throttle?

I had a run on the strip and after I got my slip the throttle wouldn’t work. Tapped the gas several times and it wouldn’t move. Thought I was going to have to turn it off when it started working again.

That seems like an indication that something was awry with the drive-by-wire throttle system....presumably caused by what the tune was commanding.

I would think if it’s a corrupted tune file the car wouldn’t even run. Now if it’s a bad tune it would run but have bad behavior. In my mind a bad tune is something that has incorrect settings and/or values in the tables and a corrupt tune is something wrong with the file not associated with the settings a tuner enters in the file.

Maybe "corrupt" is the wrong word. Maybe the Calibrator who created the tune or the Ford dealer who flashed the car missed something?

According to comments the F150 in this video is just a 10R80 Roush SC and runs like a train in back to back pulls...seems not suffering heatsoak to me...
What's the trick? Just tuned right?
