Get a hold of the company your tune is from and see what they say.

You don't yell at it like you are yelling at us do you? Lose the caps lock. But yeah. I'd contact the company your tune is from.

Try turning your traction control system off and run it like that for awhile and see if you get the same result.

My 2012 Auto does it under hard acceleration (especially when I floor it). The car doesn't shut off but but it stops accelerating like it ran out of gas, then after a second or two gets going again. I thought it was a bad tune but I have heard of stock Coyotes doing it too. The car runs fine all other times. Getting gears put in a few weeks and I am going to have it retuned. Hopefully it will be fixed then.

Have you had the tunes installed a while? I had a similar issue and went right to ford. They said the computer was still in the learning process...it was a couple weeks after I had installed the tune. Haven't had it happen again.
