    Update on my tune problems

    I really hope this doesn't start up a thread war about who has the best tuner, etc. I am only posting my story in case others find themselves in the same spot. I bought a 13-6 Kit from Van a couple of weeks back. This of course comes with a Lund tune. I asked for two tunes: 91 octane +...

    Blinking yellow traction control icon

    So on the freeway today I was doing about 75 mph. I spun up the rpms and dropped it into 2nd gear. A flashing yellow traction control icon came on. I've never seen this before. It went away after about 1-2 seconds. Anyone know what this means?

    Quick question on tunes (summer versus winter)

    If I have my car tuned in 110 degree Phoenix weather versus having it tuned in 60 degree Phoenix winter, will the tunes be the same? I realize the horsepower will be different, but will the tunes themselves be the same? I am debating taking a "canned" tune from someone like Van and Lund, or...

    My windows sticker says "SPECIAL ORDER" on it. It is a little below the area where it lists the MSRP total. It is near the bottom of the window sticker. I don't recall seeing that on other stickers. Does anyone else have this?
