Default Engine spuddering.

Hello people. I have a c7 with a texas speed 416cid. Built for boost, and nitrous. The tuning has been a nightmare. It now has a spudder when I stab the fuel and has gotten worse. My tuner is searching high and low for the answer, but I was hoping that someone has experienced this and knows the remedy....
thanx

I'm sorry to hear this, but unfortunately, it is not an uncommon issue (fine-tuning modded electro-controlled engines).

I've one that my highly experienced tuner has spent quite some time on, he also being a part of a professional tuners' group for backup. It's still not perfect though much better than initially. I'm sure someone, somewhere could do better but who has the resources to find them?

Fortunately, I've other toys that work right every time. Best of luck with your issue!
