Have you tried resetting to stock?

I googled it and someone was talking about a dirty MAF? So maybe check that. Most of what I saw though said that the tune was bad, and the people who got the code just needed new tunes.

Apparently I'm not the only one to have this problem! AMChrisRose, I need help!!!! Looks like they need the actual strategy of the vehicle, rather than the computer code as stated on the form I filled out for my custom tunes! FML! Looks like I'm not going to be heading back to Mount for my Alumni event! Awesome!

Thanks for trying to help man! I appreciate it! I'm going to revert back to the stock tune so I can pull all the way into my garage and call them ASAP! I've got some drinking to do at Alumni weekend DAMM!T!

I figured I'd at least post before and after pics of the engine bay even if the car won't start (with my custom tunes that is!).

Before:


After:

Yep, if you did not give them the right strategy code your car is not going to start. Put your stock air inlet back on and flash it back to stock. Then get a hold of AM and give them your strategy code so they can write you new tunes for it.

Engine bay looks cleaner with the JLT!
