He is right up there--has the throttle tip in perfect for my taste, have virtually no lag, increase in power is impressive and it gets significantly better mileage now too. Not sure what else one could want...

I think customers can all have different experiences with companies. USUALLY the customer determines the outcome of the level of service they receive past a certain point. I'll be as nice as possible to a customer, up until a certain point. Once they cross that threshold, I'm not going to go out of my way to help them as I would to a customer that is respectful and nice from start to finish.

*Now I'm not saying OP was or wasn't, I wasn't there. I'm just putting that out there as it seems to be the case with most that have issues with SSI.

That's some Harry potter wizard skills. I can't believe that level of tuning exist and I personally know scott Clark the guy who tuned Larry Larson pickup(the world fastest street car/truck )I can't understand how people still fall for this crap. What did he unlock 2 times this month other then his bank account? Again his tunes are good but people cant be this stupid????? To keep updating is stupidity at its finest. With that said i will come back at gen 25 or what ever stupid name it is at that point.

Omg gen 8 makes virgins throw themselves at your feet. Mthe Give me a break. Wow sheepeople

Every tuner has updates, hasn't LMS had like 12 different versions of their lame *** tune.


I may be a 'fanboy', but I'm laughing at you jerks in my rearview mirror.

That's when misfires being read was turned off. Trex had issues, so he put everyone on raptor and I think some guy blew his motor and the tune revisions came out again as a result.

So, no. Free tune revisons were only from widespread problems with tunes, otherwise, $$$

I didn't even know there was a GEN8 until I saw it mentioned in this thread. I asked about it on SSI's forum about purchasing it and Shawn sent it to me for free.

So, that's not entirely true about no free updates I hardly ever post there on SSI's forums so I'm not one of the regulars (same screenname as F150forums) and none of the upgrades I got for free were due to my truck having problems.

I had to chime in on this not just because I'm a "SSI fanboy" just a regular joe stating my experience and so far it's been positive
