The tune loaded successfully but I had 1 DTC code of V0121. Anyone know what this is? Thank you.

I don't see V but there is a P0121 throttle position sensor A circuit range problem. I had B1015 but just cleared and continued. With no apparent issues.

Try clearing the code and see if the tuner picks it up again, just like 2011taurussel suggested ... Sometimes you will get U codes/communications error codes that are a byproduct of uploading the tune, and nothing else.

Edit: it was probably a U0121 code, not a V0121 code. Easy to mistake one for the other ...

http://www.autocodes.com/u0121.html

Possible causes
- Faulty Electronic Brake Control Module (EBCM)
- EBCM harness is open or shorted
- EBCM circuit poor electrical connection
What does this mean?
Possible symptoms
- Engine Light ON (or Service Engine Soon Warning Light)
U0121 Description
Modules connected to the high speed General Motor Local Area Network (GMLAN) serial data circuits monitor for serial data communications during normal vehicle operation. Operating information and commands are exchanged among the modules. The modules have prerecorded information about what messages are needed to be exchanged on the serial data circuits, for each virtual network. The messages are supervised and also, some periodic messages are used by the receiver module as an availability indication of the transmitter module. The supervision time-out period is 250 ms. Each message contains the identification number of the transmitter module.

Here is my dyno graph and numbers from Friday. First run was V10 91, second V10 93 both using stock box. Third run was V10 93 with Airiad CAI. Run was on a Mustang AWD dyno which produces low numbers, any where from 7-12%, I added 9% to mine. The dyno operator came out and told me that the numbers where low, and not to freak out. I was looking for high 350's to 360's at the wheels and he said I got them.

Am I not understanding this right, but is the Airaid CAI showing with the lowest max? I find that ...interesting? I wonder how the Windstorm I'm about to install compares?

Wonder why the torque value is so different in the 93 tune?

So the V10 93 with stock box also has the smoothest curve, right? Just curious, did you have the pipe from the snorkel to air dam also installed during this dyno?

How is the car running? Noticeable difference from the v8 93 octane tune? I have a 2013 pp with the v8 93 octane tune on it but had to bump it down to the 91 octane due to winter gas and a sputter at high rpm...just curious how different it is from the v8 93 octane tune.

I went from V8 to V10 on my '15 about a week ago and noticed the difference immediately on daily driving. Haven't done any WOT yet.

Manu, yeah it's my modded stock box, but not snorkeled liked the '12 was. Real surprise, is that sometime before the dyno runs, the tube I ran thru the hole in air box came out and not sure where it went????? Yes big difference between V8 to V9 or 10. The big torque different between stock box and Airaid is what has me shocked, but also each car is different. Been back and forth between V10 91 and V10 93.

This V10 just might be the Holy Grail, it looks like. I hope it pans out longterm, that will make a lot of folks really, really happy!

I'm running V10 93 3 bar and so far, so good ! That said I rarely give it WOT for long because I run out of real estate or would rather not get a big ticket.

Xmas eve, I went out in the country and found a long straight through farm fields and put the spurs to it. Maybe 110 and looked up and a Mi. State cop was coming up behind me in a hurry. He was really hot but let me off because it was Xmas. Whew! I haven't had a ticket since the seventies and that one would have been a biggie. Be careful out there!
