No im not saying he is a bad tuner at all loved my last tune truck ran great. The only thing that was wierd about the swap when i first started the truck it sounded like a stuck lifter for like two or three min then went away never came back is that normal? I did the swap all at once so the lifters shouldnt of bled down i thought that was strange but like i said never came back.

I talked to nelson they sent me a retune its better so far only have 30 miles on this tune think its still learning it idles better too the last tune it would surge real bad in traffic. I was still hoping for better mid range ill have to get a dyno tune and some gears when i get some extra cash. Bye the way my check engine light doesnt come on with key on engine off is that normal with his tunes? i didnt pay attention to that on my last tune.

Once you get past a certain level of modifications (I would argue anything other than a CAI), a mail-order tune not only becomes difficult, it gets downright silly, and can even be dangerous (to your engine, at least). Once a cam, headers, etc. get thrown into the mix, the term "mail-order tune" becomes inaccurate....it should really be called "mail-order guess."
