the SS box controls the fuel pump and must be used if you use the FMU, now wonder they were having fuel delivery problems....
i would never have someone reflash a computer for a tune, this makes it a must if you want to add another pulley or change anything that you have to go back to them, anyone else would use the SS box or another form of engine management so if you brought it any where else you would have to flash it back to stock then do a piggyback...

My experience with AAM is both good and bad. I guess I worded my above post to sound a lil harsh towards AAM which wasnt my intentions. But lately Ive been trying to get a hold of Mike at AAM with a reflash issue on my car and for the past 3 weeks not I cannot get a hold of him. Everytime I call hes out on a test drive and they take my number and I never get a call back. I guess Im more or less frustrated with the lack of customer service really. Ive also tried talking with them about tuning a vortech as well and theyve sighted the same as Muzzy had done. I called function tuned then and was able to get a hold of dave right away and we talked for a while about the best way to go to atain my 400whp goal and a reliable setup for overtime. They just seemed more willing to want to help and do things my way then telling me what they want to do and how to do it. But sry if I sounded really harsh towards them. AAM still is a good shop and Ive seen what they can do, theyre customer service sometimes just really isnt the best, and for me thats what makes or breaks it for me. Anyway good luck man with the car. Great numbers already.
