Hey ppls, I appoloe in advance if im in the wrong room to be talking about this but yeah. ok I bought a xr6 turbz and atm its running like a pig under load at low revs it trys to stall, I know that cooler pipes etc can contribute to this but im thinking the fool that owned it b4 me has had the flash tuner running a stupid amount of boost cos the thing screams. I had a 200sx b4 this and that ran 13 sec down the quarter and this thing would smoke it but unfortunatly I dont think it can run happily for a long time in this condtition without a proper tune anyway, but to the point here is there anyway of knowing what the values are set for on the tuner without going to ford? I understand the controller just selects what mode and that's all, prob a stupid question because I think iv got it sussed but its always good to get an oppinion on the matter or 3. Cheers!

mate the only thing I can really think of is to take it into a workshop (not dealer) and get them to look at the setup

Get it to a reputable tuner near you and have it put on the dyno
