I have the Boss intake w/ Steeda tune. But I am still running the OEM CAI. The setup runs great with nice power through out the tach range.

I keep reading about loss of power down low....but if you have the right tuner, it can be fixed.

i have been reading elsewhere that the 2013 auto tuning it is different from the 2010-2012 autos and that some have been having issues with the tunes. so since i have the 2013 i'm still worried about frying the engine.i'm almost sold on the power pak from steeda the boss im,cai and tune. but i havent seen anyone that has a 2013 run these mods from steeda yet, or i missed looking at the year of their ride.

You will not fry your engine. The problem is in the auto tranny tuning. Most are tuning it like the 11-12 but it is different. You can not tune it as aggressive as you will get dead spots when accelerating. The tune has to be almost stock like POT. Talk to Rick at Amazon tuning. He has it all figured out.

So i'm guessing you are running this auto tune on your 2013 gt?? how long have you had this tune and what mods are you running with the tune??

Amazon and VMP auto tunes are the best. They just do not use the SCT value files but create their own. I only have a tune with no mods. The Amazon tune is flawless for the '13.
