I get what the OP is talking about. Based on the advertised performance numbers I gather that the FP tune and canned (off-the-shelf) tunes that come with tuners like my SCT BDX are very similar in gains. Shift strategies are a little better than stock with canned tune as well. When I was having...

I had to look up that avgas lol. The widespread use of highly leaded gas like that was definitely before my time. I was surprised to read that so many post WWII piston engine aircraft still cannot run on unleaded fuels. Though I see that globally there are phase-out plans in progress to replace...

Hi, Simple, follow the user manual. 87 is recommended for general daily driving, if that's you, then 87 is fine. However, the manual also says that for best performance, when towing, or in very hot conditions, 91+ octane rating is better. Generally the more important factor is the quality of...

I have heard a few other people say something very similar to this in the past and I don't really understand what they are are talking about. Perhaps you could elaborate on what type of "aircraft fuel" was used, in what type of engine, and what the benefits were that made it so fun? During my...

BassRanger, same thing I was thinking. Those tests must have been on pretty old vehicles because e85 tunes/conversions have been around for a good many years now, specifically because of the higher performance potential out of e85. As you mentioned though, it is definitely a subset of...

I think "all the time" is a bit much but I think I get your point. Yeah, they do blow gaskets, but with just a tune and no other mods, I have never had a single engine issue on any of my turbo subaru's and I put a LOT of miles on them. I was not trying to say that subaru engines are...

This is very disappointing. I ran my Subaru's with aggressive tunes their entire lives, over 220k miles on the 2.0 turbo forester suv and never had a single engine issue and I drive super! aggressively, like constantly. If the gasket failure is indeed due to the tune then I am already regretting...

Based on those specs you are totally fine. 45w is 45w, regardless of voltage. So if you plug that into the Ranger's 110VAC outlet it'll only draw 45/110 Amps, though that will not be as efficient as running it directly on 12VDC. The reason is that your vehicle has a native nominal 13.8VDC system...

Finally had communication from 5star, well sort of... so after radio silence I get an email with instructions to download and load my tune, the same type of email I initially got from them. No explanation of what was adjusted, no requests for logs, nothing at all. I also asked them why they had...

Following. Please let me know how this goes for you because I would like to upgrade the inverter as well. 150W at 110V is almost useless. That's far to little current for any of my laptops or almost anything else I'd plug into it. Maybe useful for ac phone charger but then I'd much more likely...

I seriously doubt they could link a tune to an issue with the TC system and they had to look at the system because if it was faulty it'd be a show stopper safety issue. Now, if I blow the engine they may deny warranty coverage.

Update. Haven't had time to do the logs for Unleashed so I've been driving on the tow tune a last flashed. Yesterday I had the TC light flash while merging onto the highway, then again later while accelerating WOT to pass, going from about 55 to 70mph. Flashed back to stock at my next stop then...

Stock fx4 tires, I didn't change them. No part mods at all, just a tune.

I observed the same behavior, pushing the button once prevents the issue but for me personally is not a good solution. Have you reached out to Livernois again? Perhaps they will analyze some logs for you? It'd be really great if we have multiple tuners trying to resolve the issue on multiple...

Update, First, anyone want me to move this 2021 ranger tuning and TC activation issue to a separate thread? I tested the 87 tow tune from Unleashed and the TC issue does not happen as far as I can tell. I actually really like how the tow tune shifts. Anyway, Unleashed got back to me with a...

Update, I have reached out to Unleashed and they said Torrie is looking into the TC light issue for me and I the meantime asked me if the issue happens in the tow tune. I didn't have time to test the two tune today but should tomorrow so I'll let them know my finding with the tow tune. I...

Sure. That must be it....

No one is saying that the transmission doesn't "learn" it is well known that the 10r80 tcm is adaptive. Heck, I've had vehicles from other manufacturers as far back as 2005 that the manufacturer stated the transmission was adaptive. What we are saying is that the transmission is not learning my...

He keeps talking about used vehicle owners having the shifting issues and mentions folks with new vehicles never having an issue but I got my 2021 ranger new and drove it stock for about 1300miles before tuning it and it did all the things he mentioned. Shuddering, hesitation on downshift or...

Hi, So after having the TC light issue with 5star tune (among other things I disliked about the tune) I got an Unleashed tune which generally I like a lot more than the 5star. However, after more testing with the Unleashed tune I am having the TC light issue as well. Since you also have a 2021...
