What do you mean you keep getting the run around?
Who have you contacted about this issue?

What I gather from this is that you installed a tune, and the car did not run well?
We cant burn out a MAF, that sounds like the car has electrical problems...
Also, I would guess that the car was a bit lean with all of those airflow mods, the tune is designed around a bone stock/slightly modified car. I do not understand how it could be rich at all.
Was A/F verified with a wideband?

I do not understand this post.
I am simply trying to help.

Are you simply stating that you have lost the cars info?

Please provide me with some info to go on and we'll look into this.

Thanks

after your responce yesterday I pm'd you to explain that I have no idea how to "post up" you web site site is not the easiest to figure out.
then I explained the car has no electrical problems and was running perfectly with the hurricane and fast intake.when we put the lg headers on we moved the rear 02 sensors to the front as per instructions in there kit.at this point we did not use the high flow cats so we turned off the 02 sensors as per your forum.
when we delivered the car to the customer the check engine light came on with 6 02 codes.we found the rear 02 sensors were not reponding properly and due to the age of the car we replaced them with new gm ones.at this time the customer wanted the cats installed so we put them in and turned the 02 sensors back on and we got 2 codes for rear 02 sensors so we put in simulators and that corrected the problem.
then about three weeks later the customer noticed the car running rich and rough.upon inspection the plugs were black the fresh oil was black ,and the maf was burned out.no codes.
we inspected the 02 sensors and noticed that gm packaged them wrong and we got regular 02 sensors and not the z06 ones.
now we have 4 new 02 sensors a new maf new plugs fresh oil and were ready to start the car and tune it.we dont want to wreck any new parts so were trying to get info on a tune applicable to this car with its mods.
thats where I got the run around between diablo teck support and our cmr.fusterated at the excuses I posted on the forum.

Well, the tune in the Predator is not going to cause any of the issues you have experienced.
The Predator tune is certainly not optimized for use with longtubes or the FAST intake, so I would suggest that you have it tuned with CMR on the dyno.

You keep saying the MAF was burned up...what do you mean by this?
Was the car reporting a P0101 code?
There is nothing we can do in a tune to cause a MAF to fail.

If you do not have a local CMR dealer in your area, post the original backup file here and we will make you a new tune for the mods, but it should still be verified with a wideband.

Thanks
Mike

I appreciate the help.the p0101 came up it could have been a coincidence.
We could definetly use the tune as our area makes it next to impossible.
I tried to download the factory tune and the update for our tuner but cant get it to connect.xmodem time out problem.
I ll check the forum for help until I hear from you.
Thank you.

Thank you.It worked perfectly.I will e-mail the backup file.I talked to our customer last night and he cant wait to get his car back and on the road tuned.
