The speedo is a little fast when I'm going 49 on speedo its actually 45 and its and no quite as fast as the other tune I sent you (I even tried changing the MAF curve, spark advance, and F/A I don't know if its because im changing a tune that was already changed or what. I tried running it a few different ways). The shift is a little firm but I think that because when I sent you the tune the firmness was at like 20 and there no way for me to change it to being lower (on tune it shows firmness at 0). Could you please work on an update for the tuner so that I can change all of this stuff on the tuner and now have to bother you anytime I change my tune? and so that I can set the speed limiter lower when I let someone else drive my truck? thank you for all the support you've given me so far!

By any chance did you miss this part... a quote from Mike in #2 of this thread "be sure to reset parameters when loading this tune"

yes I tried that and all other kinds of things. I think the intune for ford rangers needs an update all together because there are options in the specs that it should have that mine doesn't and yes I have checked several time to make sure my programmer is up to date

oh no... ... just got mine yesterday and I am having a hard time just registering my product. I will give it 2 hours of my time and if I don't (a) get an accurate speedo and (b) actually notice a 'seat of the pants' performance difference ( I know I won't get 50 hp ... .. ...) then what recourse do I have? 2011 ranger 4.0

Just give them a little time to fix the Speedo. These guys are being great at helping fix the problem but rewriting a program for your ECU doesn't happen overnight. The 93 octane tune is fast just the Speedo and speed limiter can't be adjusted give them a little time

I dont know what to say.
Thats the exact same tune you posted as LTW, with JUST the tire size changed....no reason it would run any differently.

Can y'all work on an update so that the Speedo calibration, speed limit, neutral rev limit, and all that stuff working on the tuner and I don't have to get y'all to make a custom tune anytime I change my tune?

Can you let me know when it's done? And how long do you think it will take to make?

I'll post it here when done sure. Might be a week or so. I already made the change just need to get it built and implemented. So we're all on the same page the gear ratio adjustment was incorrect. Was there something else?

On the tuner you can change the gear ratio and tire rev per mile but they do not change the Speedo. There is no option to change speed limit and neutral rev limit on the programmer but y'all advertise that it can change them

I'm not sure why I had such a hard time with update/registration but Garrett bailed me out. MY SPEEDO IS FINALLY RIGHT!!! YAY!!! I put on taller tires last year. intune said my stock gears were 4.10 but it's wrong, my stock gears are 3.73... changed that and my taller tire rpm and got it all fixed up - don't know why I waited so long to order the tuner. now to see if I get better than 11 (12.1 if you manually figure in the tires) mpg with a tuner. thanks guys

I installed the new update on Friday and it did not change a single thing. I'm tired of not being able to change the parameters that y'all advertise as being change able. If this is not resolved by Thursday I will be returning my intune and making sure that everyone with a ranger know that they do not work.

I am in the same situation.
Diablosport folks, it is time for me to challenge you to a dual!
1. I will fill my tank with 93 octane and have it dyno'd (need to find dyno in my area)
2. I will load the diablotune and have it dyno'd again.
3. if there is not a 10+hp difference then Diablosport company pays me for:
a. the tuner @ $389
b. whatever it cost for two dynos
c. my aggrevation ($100 .. ... yeah I'm cheap)
accept the challenge?
