The Saga continues. Has anyone here had any success when the programmer refuses to install a custom tune. I worked with SCT for a total of 6hrs trying to get a tune on my car. The tech informed me that the programmer was a 2018 model yet i bought the kit in october 2019,not sure of the relevance but he seemed surprised at its age. The tune always fails right at the end with a Error # 110D8 which seems to be a really common problem and i tried every suggestion that has been made . The tech logged in with teamviewer and did a full format and reload of the device and now it wont even read the vehicle data like battery voltage and temperature . Originally it read 1839 degrees for temp then another time it read exactly what it should now nothing. I am beyond frustrated at this point and going with an nguage and remote tune is another 1400 canadian so i would like to get this to put a simple tune on,not going to be messing with it once its on.


I am open to all and any suggestions.
Curious: Did SCT send you a replacement tuner to try ? I installed the stage 2 Edelbrock last spring and it came with a BDX version of the tuner no problems with it

Really glad you got resolved, but sorry for your frustration. So strange, as i have had good service from my Edelbrock contact to resolve a couple of initial issues.

I hope the rest of my experience is a good one and that

Thanks for the kind words. This is just the universe trying to teach me not to lose my shit when things dont go the way i think they should. I tend to really put my back into these kinds of problems and it takes a bit before i relent. As my dad says, you slide farther on BS than you do on gravel.

As an aside i do have some belt noise but i have yet to run it more than 30 seconds so we will see after a full heat cycle.

Funny thing is, I much prefer the SCT BDX to the ngauge I had on my previous mustang. The sensitivity on the touch screen was always spotty but then it got to point of uselessness. For the price it should have a glass screen. I reported the problem to Lund who then directed me to emotion who tried to direct me back to Lund. At that point I gave up on it. No issues so far with the BDX. I thing both could use a step up in quality though.

I didnt know that the bdx existed i will look at it . The replacement unit seems to feel heavier than the first one . I cant be sure since i already had the first one boxed up.The screen also seemed nicer, but then again the first one was from 2017. I am just glad it worked and i can move on. I filled the coolant and ran the car up to temp and all is good, just a few things left but spring looks to be a ways off yet so no hurry. Already planning next winters upgrades lol. Your so lucky to live in Texas, if i was in the states thats where i would live for sure.

I truly wish i could tell you how it drives but sadly its still snowing where i live. Since the car has been sitting all winter i put the 91 tune on and will put in boostane. I am going to start out slow and do some logging before anything. soon as i know you will know . :)
