hey guys got a tune from brenspeed and i am getting pinging on 91 and 93 octane tunes.
Did any of u guys have the same problem,if so did u have to go to sct website for new tunes or did brent send u a new tune some other way.
The site is kinda of confusing on what to do so if u guys could help i would appreciate it.

if you are sure you have no air
leaks in the air intake system, then
ask brenspeed to email you a
new tune.....i believe there is
no charge for that

They will send you a new tune. Are you pinging with the 91 tune and a full tank of 93 octane? If so, I would definitely take the CAI off (if you have one).. and revert back to stock. Burn through that tank of gas and add 93 octane from a good gas station. And for the love of god.. don't use "octane booster"...

I would just give them a call in the morning and ask questions and have them send a new tune if needed. Their customer service is top notch and they will take care of you.

+1

If you are running good 93 octane a 91 octane tune should not ping. They should send you a different tune.

He is telling you to go to the SCT website so that you can download the program that lets you take tunes from your computer and transfer them to your tuner. He is probably writing you a new tune now. Just go to the SCT website and download what he told you to so that you can actually put the tune on your tuner when you get the new tune via email from brenspeed.
