New iTSX overnighted and DYNO TUNE tomorrow

So I had a Gryphon but saw this beautiful piece of equipment and just had to have. Plus I'll be able to use it in the Cobra. I'm going to Piedmont Customs in Raleigh for the tune. I've already downloaed the app and, I'm sorry, but it looks so much more promising than the Gryphon ever was. Plus I get to program 2 cars, but not at the same time of course. I actually couldn't sleep Tuesday night because of this,lol. I'll keep y'all updated and post a vid of dyno.

Well, still at the dyno! My new iTSX was bad and wouldn't work. So they are sending it off to get replaced but are using the SCT handheld they had here in the shop. So far it's from a base of 215hp and 289tq to 260hp and 296tq. There still not done so we will see what the final is.

This a 5.4 3V? Yer torque should be in the ~325 ft-lb region. Rwhp is about right ...

What are yer A/F's and EGT's?

I'm thinking the 35"a and 4.56 gears aren't helping.

my only reservation with Bluetooth dongle programmers linked to a smart phone....."what happens during programming if the phone goes dead?" or you get a call and it interupts the data stream....

First of all let me say! The guys at Piedmont Custom Motorsports are TOP NOTCH. They GAVE me a brand new SCT handheld to use until my brand new iTSX is sent back to SCT to get fixed. I didn't ask them to, they offered. There gonna call me when it comes, just good good guys. Anyone in the Raleigh NC area that needs anything done give them a call!

@MGD thanks! I was hoping the tq would have been higher but with those things working against me I'm just glad I got close to 300.

@Opti let's see, k&n cai, under drive, e fans, 4.56, true duels and I think that's it. Im looking into some long tubes and cams next.

@88 if it stops for some reason you can restart it by returning to stock, then reprogramming. Best thing is to go into air plane mode maybe so nothing but wifi works if your at home or McDonalds,lol, but I'm sure you wouldn't be doing this on a dead battery.
