You have your Evolution converted to a Gryphon by PHP and then Bill Cohran can write custom tunes for it.

Or, you could buy an X3 custom tuned by Troyer, PHP or VMP.

A Gryphon is not a tune. It is a programmer that used to be an Edge, but has been "rebranded" so that it COULD be custom tuned. If you have a Gryphon, then you do download your custom tunes, once they are written. If you have a different programmer, you get your tunes a different way, and from a different source.

Since you didn't say where you are getting your programmer from, I can't be more specific.

I had the same problem mine seemed to have a lean miss nothing terrible but annoying at 50 mph and above . I went back to level 2 no problems since I have updated the tunes and calibration but havent tried it again yet.
