The tune was done by a local tuner that is well known in sc with hpt. He pointed me to the harness as the issue and psi says they check every harness and it would not have left if it was not right and that i should buy and ecu from them. the only issue i have with that is that is $200 bucks that im not sure is going to fix the issue ( dont trust a sales person)
