Hello,

I'm the proud owner of a '14 MKS Ecoboost that I've owned for 2 years now. I owned a '17 SHO for several years that I had bought new but had tons of problems with. I decided to cut my losses with that car when it spent 3 months at the dealer for to an undiagnosable issue that took the engineer to come out and determine the style of fuel line they used had somehow started collapsing causing the car to run out of fuel under load. That in conjunction with 2 broken cv axles in the first 2k miles of the cars life made my decide to get an '03 Terminator to play with for a few years. I love the SHO platform though and decided to pick up the '14 MKS I have now which I got for a steal due to a failed PTU. I ran A LMS 440 package until a month ago. I gave up on LMS because of issues with their tune and responsiveness. The main issue I had with their tune was the 1-2 shift at WOT felt like it was going to shatter my drivetrain and would also cause the engine to pull timing regardless of TCS being on or off. It would also not want to shift from 2-3 in the low range occasionally. Nothing against LMS just after hassling for a couple months I decided to switch the car over to Torrie at Unleashed for tuning. The car is much more drivable now but there is an issue with the bypass valve opening when it shouldn't be. I'll quit rambling in the intro though and cover that on a tech section post. Oh yeah and pics.

Welcome! Love you gave some history. Run from LMS! A few guy's know how to turn the sho into a tune fun zone. Look at sign lines for more information.
