Go over to Tillman and he will help you out, my tunes from Doug are running WAY on the lean side and i think i might have hurt my engine already, but it is still good. I am going to use CR's tune till i can get ahold of Doug. CR opens at 8 AM our time so i recommend giving him a call first thing in the morning and your tune should be in your e-mail by the afternoon

yeah doug turns off the O2 sensors on all his tunes, but i know he has been busy and it might be showing, i am still loyal to his tuning but i am going to bring it to his attention that the tunes are off.
I do not know what could be causing these problems but it could be your O2 sensors. What are the exact codes that are showing up, PM your e-mail and i will send all the OBDII codes for our cars

Save yourself alot of headache and call Brenspeed; they will know and can fix you up right away. Plus you'll probably get right through on the call, instead of having to wait.

Hey Ira, if your car was running too lean, the wrench light would have came on or it would have thrown an error code saying "too lean". I believe it happened to someone else on here. The computers can read when the program is running too lean and will go to default mode so no damage has happened to your motor. If you haven't had this happen yet, your still in good shape.

Dude all i can say is awesome, for having an auto, I chirpped the wheels in 2nd and 3rd, i have never done that before. Plus with your tune i could feel the low-end torque (even from a stop sign, it wanted to take off hardcore on me) plus it felt like my car WANTS to go past 100 and sometimes i have to make sure to look down before i get a ticket

Well regardless I'm glad you're satisfied. Remember tune updates are free. Hit me up if you ever change your setup.

This seems to happen ALL the time. When some of these "tuners" first start out they are on the forums, chiming in, helping out. You can get ahold of them easily. Then all of a sudden they get popular, business picks up and they forget who got them there.......US, THE CUSTOMERS.
A good example is James at Runnin With the Devil. I originally purchased my tunes for my cobra from him when he was still small and growing. Then all of a sudden, I had to wait for weeks to get anything from him. So I took my business somewhere else.
The best message you can send these vendors is to take your business away from them and QUIT recommending them. When the money starts to dry up it WILL get their attention.
TillmanSpeed seems to be on the boards ALL the time and is quick to respond to issues and concerns. I have never purchased anything from them but it's just an observation. Time will tell.

I have a problem finding people who are responsive who will work with a Diablesport/Predator tuner. I should have bought an SCT but impulsively went with the Diablo.....does anyone have someone they could recommend for me?

I hear this time and time again about Doug. Not being able to get a hold of him and it is what has prevented me from ordering a SCT with tunes from him. I understand he is one guy but when people have issue like the OP and he has repeatedly sent Doug and email and still no reply that is down right unacceptable. Maybe send him and Email with "URGENT CAR IS JACKED UP HELP!!!" as the Title might get his attention.
I have a question did your problem start after the installation of the O/R pipe and did you get a tune for that? Also why would Doug turn the upstream oxygen sensors off? This make szero sense.
