Weird, maybe your firmware was more modern or something. Mine stayed on the stock setting even after the "diablo tune". lilcrate I changed my other post u were right, it's still weird because my tuner didn't have a "1" just stock, 50, and 100 for off.

Hmmmm...now I will have to check mine again. It has been a long time but I remember reading the manual and going by it, leaving me making no changes. I will check it when I leave work.

^alright, when u check it let me know what u find. Maybe my tuner is just weird, or maybe it was off from the factory on the later year new edges.

no the stock cars wouldnt have come with it already turned off...

and as for the tuner it wont get turned off by the stock diablo tune. you must edit the diablo tune in order to turn it off so dont think installing the tune will automatically take it off.

No, you are definitely right. I guess that passage from the manual that makes no sense is what made me not make any changes. I turned it off, but really cant tell any difference, but my shift pressure was already at 160.

OP, sorry for the hijack. Not sure what a tuner job is, unless you are referring to a dyno tune. That is if you buy a tuner, which allows you to manipulate the cars computer (a/f levels, timing, shifting firmness, disable MIL, speed calibrate, much, much, more) then take it to a shop that has a dyno, and they will use your tuner and the dyno together to dial in your car. You can just attempt to tune yourself, but if no experience best to use a dyno tune.

What are you trying to accomplish with your car?

Auto X? Lower you ET's? How much money you looking to spend? What kind of hp are you looking to gain..?

We need more info.
