not that I know of, but usually if you call Sean he will get you one out in a few hours if he can:rock:
And personally for the longevity of our engines I wouldnt trust anyone else for a mail order tune:rock:

Would you happen to know if Roe can send me a tune even though I did not purchase the SCT from him?

supercar, thats what the sct is good about, a tune can come from anyone witht eh software to write it, just get it in you e-mail and download it to the programmer

There is certain things you can do with that SCT and can not. I know this.

someone tell me this. How exactlly do they write the tunes for YOUR truck? say i have exhaust and then i add a CAI and a Trottle body. how do they know what to change? also currently not every gas station carries 93 octane so should you go with a 91 octane tune and then just run 93 when possible?

That's what happened to me. I have the 93 tune and get spark rattle under WOT.
I have been waiting on a new tune.

You are supposed to be able to give you specs and send them to the tuner who then sends you a revised tune.

i got my SCT from ROE racing(only took 3days to arrive) and when i ordered it they asked what all i had done to my truck and loaded it with 3 tunes
a 91 tune, 93 tune, and a 94 plus tune i've used all 3 and have had no problems. but when i ran the 94+ i had mixed teh 93 with some E85ethonal to raise teh octane rating. so i would say just buy it from roe they are a viper specialty place and know our trucks very well and you should be happy with your tunes

there is your best answer supercar, and yes no matter where you get your SCT from, Roe can send you a tune.

Have to agree I bought my tuner somewhere else didn't like the tune talked with sean told what i had, only bad thing is he tunes it so damn good you want more there was a big differance in tunes and fast at getting em to you also dyno it and send him the results he can tweak it even more. When he came out here we dynoed my truck then with those results he wrote me a tune for the s/c and again wow.

I really think you need to take into account, is the tuner busy with others as well. I am all about customer service and getting what I want when I pay my hard earn money for it. But if you got a big build like Smoke or Ram from Hell, than you need to take into consideration it is not just a CAI and Exhaust tune. But, there is also the flip side, if the tuner is just taking his time and putting your crap on the back self well, than we got a problem houston. I would rather wait on a Tuner ROE, DC or KRC for the best possible tune vice hurry up. Trust me when you get that TUNE you will be smiling your butt off

It's just a re-tune to turn off the CEL for the cats which it was supposed to have in the first place.

To give everyone an idea, it's not just a weekend I've been waiting. I emailed on 10/1, finally got an answer on 10/9 and then I replied immediately to give him the info he needed and haven't heard back since then.

I sent another followup email on the 17th and still no word.

This is what I was afraid of when I ordered the SCT as it was promised for a very long time and kept getting delayed for one reason or another with no contact unless I initiated it after being promised over and over that it was going out "tomorrow" or "first thing Monday"

I suppose I'll just suck it up and pay Sean for a tune.....really sucks that you pay for something and supposedly the support that comes with it and you get shafted on the support.

I went thru a very similiar ordeal when I ordered my SCT KRC....The tuner left me sitting on a dyno right in the middle of the tuning....a dyno I was paying for by the hour.....I learned to stay with Sean Roe after this....

yea you are right that is not right at all.

wesman · Oct 22, 2008

Well, he finally got back to me this morning and said that I couldn't get a tune that turns off the rear 02's(would have been nice to know this 8 months ago when I asked for it to do that), that they all have to be turned off together. Does this seem accurate? If so, how do others run the cat deletes ? I have the 02 sims but I still get the code.

Also, I have it done exactly like this on my Lightning and no issues at all.......is it a SCT thing for the Dodge or what ?

I used the spark plug extenders, which did the trick.:rock:

My tuner turned my rear O2s off...I was getting a CEL about every 600 miles before the tune (I had the electric sims)....since he turned the O2s off no CELs in several thousand miles...

At least he got back to you. Still nothing for me.

you can make your own mechanical sims for very little cost:

Ditto I was not at the dyno just waited forever and a day and then went to sean. Sean is the shit the differance between the tunes are unreal. Its worth the duckies believe me because he will write his own tune and you will feel a big differance.:burnout: :burnout:

I've had on my 02 sims for about 20k miles now and never had cel...I bought them from x-metal way back then...
