How do i get a custom tune???

I have had my truck for a wile, i have so far put headers high flow cats with a flowmaster out duels. I also put a plane old intake not a cold air or K&N...its just a stainless high flow intake...i also put a throttle body spacer on... about a month ago i put my edge evo on...i have just been running stage 2 with it....im just wondering if i should be worried with tho's add on's with the edge....it runs great but i just want to be sure....how do i get a custom tune....i'v heard of bill being good but how do i get it done??? do i have to take the hole truck to him or what??? i'm just confused....

thanks

matt

Yeah, just say your having "driveability" problems due to your other mods.

First off ditch that throttle body spacer, it's only making weird noises. Any performance gains are being canceled out because of its weight.

VMP doesn't tune the EDGE, so he would have to get a SCT. Bill can still "fix" driveability problems, so why get rid of what he's got?

ultimately he needs a custom tune ,thumper and racing 2 fast will agree to hit vmp for a custom tune. since bill can't custom tune edges anymore per their agreement with epa/carb-don't ask bill to jeopardize his livelihood- that, or go with a gryphon which he can take on trade-in and fully custom tune

Because from what I have heard Bill isnt doing CustomTunes anymore. Not until his stuff comes out.

From what I understand in the begining post, he has a lot of mods with just the Edge... If it's not custom tuned by Bill already he's leaving a lot on the table with the mod's he has. So unless it's a Custom Tune for the Edge he's already got. Bill cant help him, ( or maybe he can)

X-Cal 2/3 with some work by VMP or TP
X-Cal 2/3 with some work by TP or VMP

Can pull a lot of HP out of those mods.... Again only if Bill is unable to help him at this time.

He is not doing "custom tunes" but he said he could fix "driveability"(thats a codeword for customizing your tunes to match your supporting mods)problems.

Way to GO!! Not code anymore!!

lol, if that's the case then keep your edge, and get those darn drivability issues worked out. That would be the best bet!
