Also if you look at my dyno I posted originally from gearheads the graph is set on max(5) for smoothing out the lines and they are really rough in the higher RPM's thats not norm...Sux that GH doesnt give you the A/F ratio but I know some ppl doing the dyno dont always do AF on the charts. Just sux cause maybe I could have gotten a heads up sooner but it is what it is.

You were running a canned SCT tune with LTs and an O/R X pipe?
There is your problem. That canned SCT tune isn't meant for much more than a CAI to be run on. You should've gotten a custom tune as soon as you put that X pipe on.

It's not an issue with #8, per say. Get a tune from a legitimate tuner, a custom tune, that has been datalogged to ensure accuracy, and you won't have problems.

Sean said last night it wasnt the SCT tune because I asked him specifically was it me putting on the tune? and he said no. Acted like it was more of a manufacture defect that tended to happen on 2011-2012's at random.

I know it's buyer beware but i personally wouldn't be on a forum talking about trading a car in that you know has issues that were caused by modding it.
