I have called him several times and he was always working on a car at the time and usually doesn't stop. You always have to leave him a mwssage but he always got back to me within a day.
Just make sure you give him a number he can always reach and will be able to talk.
My shifts are smooth at low RPM's just like nothing was tuned on the car if I want by feathering the gas. When I go WOT look out it is a hard and agressive shift. You can also adjust the WOT shift points and sharpness on your own with the tuner if requested.

Do you currently own a predator? If so just load the C&L 93 octane as I have and tweak it. You can move the shift points around and make all the other required adjustments yourself. You can make your auto kick hiney. However I am unable to do anything with the torque management. This may be due to my lack of knowledge or just not possible with the Predator. If you do not currently own a tuner the direction is clear. X-2 with Lidio's tune from AA for the auto. He may have more experience in the auto area than the other TOP two. This issue has possibly more words written about it than any other subject on this forum. Everyone should be up to speed by now. Even slow me.

alrighty then...
back to the topic at hand...
made the call to lidio on monday, got a call back yesterday (tuesday)... lidio was great to talk to and had very in-depth answers to all my questions... including my question regarding getting a tune for the k&n... he offered to buy one and make tunes for it...
so it looks like i'm going to be able to kill two birds with one stone on this one.... going to get that auto trans part of my tune shaped up and get a tune for the k&n... definitely happy i made the call at this point... lidio was great to talk to, had answers to all my questions and inspired a great deal of confidence in his product....
so good news for anyone looking for a tune to go with the k&n (like i was)... lidio should have one available within the next couple weeks... i'll post a review as soon as i have it installed...

I just installed the C&L intake and SCT 2 from LIDIO at Alt Auto. I must tell you guys. It is SICK!! I'm still smiling from the test ride. This 93 tune does exactly what he claims.
No more DBW problems. Throttle response is excellent. It REALLY does chirp 2nd gear. I don't know how he programmed a shift kit into the trans, but boy does it work!
to you LIDIO. you did it! I highly recommend this to all auto GT's. I can't say the other tuners are not as good. I'm just saying this tune kicks butt! I can't wait to see how this is with 3.73 gears

Well, I can't tell you yet how wonderful the SCT/X2 from Lidio is but I am about to find out. Sold my Predator Monday and ordered from Lidio on Tuesday. Should be here by Friday. I can't wait!!!!! I can't say anything bad about my Predator and the C&L tune but I tried to find someone to help me with the auto trans but did not have much luck. However, I spoke to Lidio for 20 minutes and all I can say is if the tune is half as good as his enthusiasm about it I should be thrilled. He spent time expaining his tune to me because he wanted too not because I kept pushing him for answers. It was simply refreshing to deal with someone that seems to care that I am happy. He explained how he turned off Ford's torque management system completely. How my auto will not go into OD until 65 mph. He feels that the tune he offers is what Ford should have provided in the first place but could not because of all of the compromises they have to make to meet all of the rules out there. It seems to have the best of everything from the posts I've read. Enough to make me find out for myself. I will post after I have installed it.

I really like hearing all this about the tunes specially for auto owners such as myself. However I really want to keep my Predator and get a good tune with it. I wish some of the guys on here would also deal with Predator.
