Default Sct Tuner problem

I have an 04 6.0. I got a sct x3 the other day. It ran like a scalded ape till yesterday. I was driving it and it bogged down and died. It would start if primmed for a minute but would slowly bog. I took it back to stock. So I started to track it and bleed the water seperator screw and the filter cap. Started up and ran great till I reloaded the tunes, it died again. So has anyone had these problems. I am thinking it might have a pump not being able to keep up. Or maybe some type of vapor lock?

Yes the canned tunes arnt so great. You should have waited for the custom tunes. When you get the custom tunes it should be fine.

I just got Eric's street performance today. All solved except the dribble of pee I lost when I dropped the hammer. There was almost more white smoke than black. It is unreal. Those guys really know what they are doing. If you are looking for some serious hp call them.
