I have both too, Phil going to find someone who can tune with it soon.
See VP Im not the only bad ACE around here lol Emilio let me know.. I am going to try to either talk or write to SCT to give them a list of my mods to change the tuner over. Do you know if SCT has same option as Diablo to choose betwen Automatic and Man that was GT400's only concern but I think it should somewhere. I just need the tune for my mods

I haven't installed it yet. I emailed a friend of mine at Whipple and told him what I wanted to do. He told me NOT to do it because the Ford Racing Tune that came with the SC won't handle the additional airflow without a custom tune (at MY expense) and I don't have the money for that. Even if I did, it might void my supercharger warranty since I'm not using the supplied tune.
Secondly, even if you COULD get someone to retune, the aluminum housing the STOCK throttle body mounts to has smaller diameter openings and people who have tried this combination had interference with the butterflies hitting the smaller holes and the divider in the Whipple housing. It's not the same as the opening in the stock plastic manifold.
It sucks but I traded for something I can't even use!

Bad enough to trade it back?
See how the housing has two bores in it? With the butterflies from the BBK rubbing, you run the risk of jamming the throttle open unable to close it and well....we all know what that means!
Compare those openings with the WIDEMOUTH opening of the stock manifold.

Hmmmm........And just to show how honorable I am, I will STILL help you fix the fiberglass cracks in your hood at NO CHARGE!
I was willing to trade because you said the cars that benefit best from the BBK TB were the supercharged and turbocharged cars.

They are but I guess it is the K.B. that the guys are running. I didnt realize that the S/C you have has smaller air inlet

Actually I'm not kidding.
For the help I'm willing to give you repairing your hood at no cost, except for a couple of beers (That alone you said saves you $300 in repairs) I would think that you'd trade it back since you already have another tuner and just chalk this up something that didn't work out.
I know I would.
