tuner or no tuner

[crazychris]

I have a 16' 1000-5d I put 30" cyrptids on it just recently. It has no issues pulling forward but in reverse well.....not so great. I have read that replacing the stock tune will help wake the sxs up and help with the clutch engagement. question is....getting a tuner is it worth the money? I don't plan on going no bigger than 30's, and I do alot of variety riding. from riding at wolfpen gap (going there 4th of July) to swampy bottoms in Southern Arkansas.

Tuners can help with the low end, clutch engagement, and make it run cooler but don't expect a ton. I have a tune, but I know that there are better ones out there now, just be carful if you get one, and make sure it is reputable.

COPS tune! hahahahaha....just kidding. I wouldn't do that to someone I didn't like let alone someone I've never interacted with to have an opinion of.

yeah no cops tune for me. I joined several Facebook groups and they were in every post about tunes. my thoughts are let the product do the talking. and compition should drive the owners to make a better, affordable, product. trash talking is a major deternt to me.

Look up Florida Cracker tuning, great guy and I really like his tune. I have 30’s on mine and so far only issue reversing was up a concrete drive where I broke the tires lose and left black marks.

I have looked him up. seems like a good dude from gator country. what tune are u running? if it helps with the backing out of holes that's a big deal. thats my biggest issue. I have been stuck twice thanks to the weak reverse. n my son's can am 570 outlander went thru both places like nothing.

Stage 1 I’m pretty sure, it also lets you go through all the gears in reverse if you really need to spin the tires vs stock that is just 1st.

how do u like stage one so far. I was looking at stage 2 or 3? since it's more mud tuned. our hunting ground are river bottoms. I do go looking for the deepest hole but....sometimes it happens. lol

I like it but I also don’t do much mud riding which is why I went with it. Each stage holds the clutch more from what I understand.

I just bought S1 and S2 from Florida Cracker.
I'll let yall know what i think after i get a chance to test it out. probably will be a few weeks from now.
there isnt really any mud where i ride, just rocky hill climbs. so it may not be too relevant for you.

I bought the PV3 extension (6ft) from the club store and got the PV3 mounted on the dash. the 6ft worked out great, the plug ends up under the hood.

I am interested in hearing about your findings and review.
