I understand your frustration. I purchased a Roush TVS system a couple years ago (not from AM). I had tons of problems on initial startup, but eventually worked with Roush, and a few friends here on this forum to figure things out.
I get why you started these threads, and I support you doing that. If you don't feel that the people at the company are helping you, this is a good place to "escalate" the problem quickly.
However, I do not support you jumping on OTHER people's threads to bad mouth AM. You used this forum as a tool, Will responded to you on a Sunday. You can't use the forum to get their attention and then not give them the opportunity to do anything.
You joined this forum just to call out a sponsor...

Not too concerned with offending someone right now.

Hey Bill,
I am truly sorry to hear about the issues you are having with the tune supplied by Bama for their supercharger package - this is an unusual circumstance as they have tuned a ton of these kits with great results, on the street and track. I would love to take a look into this further and get you all squared away. At your earliest convenience, can you please shoot me over a PM me your contact info and order info and I will have Bama's lead calibrator reach out to you first thing tomorrow morning as unfortunately the office is closed today (Sunday). If you need anything at all, I'm just a PM away and although I know this entire ordeal is frustrating, I'm sure we can get you smiling again- no matter what it takes.
Thanks a lot and looking forward to hearing from you.
-Will

My first thought when I see these kind of posts is... why the hell dont people take a supercharged car to get dyno-tuned???? Find a reputable shop in your area and get it tuned by someone who has their hands on the car.

If Ford can program thousands of cars with the same factory tune - why cant a tune from someone like (Bama, SVE, Steeda, etc) work on the same year, model car if the mods are the same? The only thing that could affect it really is elevation...but the stock tune still has no issues so I don't get it.

All cars are built the same but once the owner takes over things start changing. Then we start adding mods and the parts aren't necessarily exactly the same and the installers might have things a little different. The driver might drive like an old lady or they might treat each stop light like a drag race. so on and so forth.
So an off the shelf tune for a car that has actually been driven and modified won't necessarily give you the best results. In some cases the results can be disastrous.
