No its not from a place like that. I went to the local shop.. it is called the "mustang shop" They downloaded the tune onto my SCT from the computer. and it is a 91 octane with the JLT.

Your tune is screwed up. You need to have them write you a new one or go buy one from someplace else.

Double check all your hoses on the intake.

Make sure all your hoses are attached and your intake/filter are snug.

Go back to the tuner who sold you the CAI and tune.
They will figure it out.

I had a similar problem recently....after I had been running fine on a custom tune with Roush CAI for over a year. My check engine light kept coming on and everything...code for "too rich" showed up on SCT tuner. Anyway, local shop told me over the phone that the jumping of RPMs and loss of power could be from a bad MAF sensor. Did you reinstall the MAF correctly into the new CAI tube? Did you damage the MAF sensor?
Luckily for me I found the problem before I spent $275 on a new MAF sensor....my air intake tube had come loosejustslightlyfrom the air-filter box and was screwing with the air flow and MAF readings. I tightened back down and haven't had any problems since.
