Custom PHP tunes just in!!

WOOHOO!!!! My Tunes are in! Thanks BILL! I don't know where you find the time man, especially between taking your wife in for surgery and all the other stuff, pretty amazing...

I have uploaded the custom calibrations to the gryphon, and it all went successfully, but now the gryphon screen says :


Connecting to Bridge.
Please wait...

It has been on this screen for about 5 minutes now. Do I need to do anything?

For anyone else waiting, I ordered mine on 2/20 and got my HEX to them on 3/1 and received my custom tunes this morning 5/27.

I got the 87 Performance tune, and an 87 Tow tune, and kept the canned trans tune... The truck is a 2000 F150 5.4L Lariat.

Still trying to get a response about the Bridge message I have currently on the screen.

This was answered on the PHP forum. It's basically just an artifact of the pre-2004 truck programmers. Bill explained once that, "The "Bridge" is the communications circuit built into the OBD-II cable for the older vehicles (up to 2003)." Once you get this message, the tunes are loaded and you can take the programmer to your truck and plug it in.

Thanks, Yep, I just plugged it into the truck and everything programmed perfectly. No problems what-so-ever, couldn't be happier. A review of the tunes to come here in a few hours after I drive out to school and back. Stay tuned.

Wow... that is really all I can say. I drive through a lot of hills to get to class, and the truck had a lot more power all throughout the RPM's and at times I had to set the cruise control because when I looked down I was flyin! The truck moves so much more effortlessly and even sounds better. The canned tunes were fun, but the custom tune is all out awesome! I cant wait to try out my tow tune with my trailer! Thanks PHP!!!

After I saw when onefitty ordered his I was hoping mine were in my home email too and sure enough they were. I have not had time to load mine in yet but I will be doing this Friday afternoon.

The tunes make the truck fun to drive. Not only that, the engine just sounds "happy". You have to experience it to know what I mean.

One thing I have noticed right away is that I am not digging into the floor boards as much to get it to go or even to pass. I think that is pretty good!
