S 197 Newbie

Hi glad to be here and back in action. My mustang was non-op since 2013 and she's happy to back on the road. She's an 05 Satin Silver GT with a few little extras.

The mechanic blamed the tuner.
The tuner blamed the mechanic.
Got frustrated and tried of the back and forth plus at that time my daughter was about enter college soooo... The mustang slept.
Finally went to a do it all shop and as it turned out it was a bad TUNE.

them's some nice little extras!
glad your stang is on the road again; it sounds like you found a good local shop, but if you ever want to try remote tuning, you can contact "Lito" at support@tudyno.com

welcome to TMS!

I noticed you have the Saleen SuperShaker S/C on your S197. Don't know if your aware of this or not? but JDM engineering was both a custom tuning specialist for Saleen and also as an authorized Saleen service center. Anyhow, I also have the Saleen series VI S/C on my S197 and would highly recommend to anyone who has a Saleen supercharger to consider JDM for their application and tuning needs. Needless to say, I went with JDM for their many years of experience as a Saleen custom tuner and couldn't be happier as a direct result.
