Hi Everyone, I’ve been apart of this forum for quite sometime now. Just haven’t posted or contributed anything since this is my first USDM, let alone first truck! I knew nothing at all about trucks, muscle cars or even turbos. So I was still learning about everything and going with my performance modifications as I read thread by thread.
Welp... here's to my first post, and I wanted my 1st post to show appreciation to Winfield aka
@GooseTuned for completely turning my Raptor into a complete MONSTER!!! Let me start off by saying I've done most bolt ons by reading everyone's post, from AMS turbo adapters, SPD Downpipes, intercooler, cold air intake, exhaust, turbo tubes... ect.
Doing all this, I wondered why the truck wasn't performing the way I THOUGHT it should... it sounded loud, I'll give it that but all bark and no bite... I began to become frustrated because I've spent thousands with all these performance mods, and I didn't even get the "butt dyno" effect! So then I bought a pedal commander, and atleast that made it seem like the truck was "doing something" but deep down I knew the truth LOL... I knew after a few gears, the truck would feel empty like it has nothing left and it's just making loud noises.
Well after 4 months of disappointment, just before Halloween I decided maybe I should just get a tune. I've researched a few tunes for the Raptor. Ultimately it came down to reviews. In the end, COBB - Goosetune was the most reviewed with positive feedback.
I reached out to Winfield thru DM, and he immediately responded and answered questions and concerns I had.... let me tell you the type of customer service he provided.
First off…. when I contacted him, I asked him if he had any sales or specials going on... at that time he did not BUT because I was Military/Law Enforcement, he offered me a Military discount and gave me a custom promo code he created.
Then I told him that I was worried because I was currently on vacation and didn't want the accessport to be sitting on of my doorstep.... At that time I was still in New York but was making my way down to DC then to Virginia to visit family. He told me not to worry, and shipped it with my custom tune & TCM literally 15 minutes later and gave me the tracking# and it arrived 2 days later to where I was on vacation.
By the time I came back home, I was excited to install the AP but learned that Winfield was also on vacation (first week of November) going to SEMA in Las Vegas. That didn't matter because he still followed up with me, asking datalog after datalogs to make sure it was running properly. We did 6 revisions during HIS vacation. Smh
I was so impressed by what he did to my truck, I became stingy and wanted more power! So I asked him for a secondary MAP - E50 blend.
Yeahhhhhh y'all were right! I wished I just read this thread first. If I could do all again, I definitely would've just done Goosetune instead of wasting thousands of dollars on bolt ons.
I just wanted to say THANK YOU to Winfield for everything!!! Anybody thinking about getting a tune or still on the edge like I was because of warranty... just pull the trigger and prepare to write a "thank you" post to
@GooseTuned !!!!!
