Default Replace Roush S/C Tune??

I have a roush S/C on my 06. Sent pcm in for install. came back great, 6,200 rpm shift points chrisp shifting. Had 3:73s put in pcm back to roush my expense
with overnight shipping& recal. about 200.00. came back lousy....shift points sloppy. 2nd to 3rd gear at 3,400rpm. lost about .4 om my 1/4 mile time. I expected to gain .4 or .5 with other suspension mods. Called Roush they will recal. but My expense!!
Anyway to dump Roush tune?? Should I get a Dyno Tune??

Not sure why you'd pay for a bad PCM flash. Anyway if you want more out of the car and have a good local tuner and you don't have issues with voiding a warranty(if you have one) then I go with a custom tune. Get a smaller pulley, maybe LT's and throw it on the Dyno. Roush tunes are fine but conservative due to the 'warranty' stuff.

Talk to VMP Tuning he does mailorder for Roush Kits.

Dynotune would be better but only if you have a really good tuner that knows these cars.
