I gave Livernois a call today. I spoke with one of the tuners, Anthony. Very nice and informative guy. The way he explained it to me was that basically the 2013+ SHO and others that share the powerplant, is first off take the stage tuning and throw those words out the window. Though he said the '13+ was far more capable of an ECU platform for tuning, from what I could gather they had just scratched the surface. So the tune would be the equivalent of a 4+ 91 octane.
I also learned that they eliminate the fly by wire/kickdown lag that is inherent in Fords programming. I'm sold and I'm seriously considering one as my first upgrade. My only hesitancy is the fact that I don't have a laptop, so I'm curious if it will work with a galaxy tab with a usb to mini usb adapter. Anthony hadn't tried it so he didn't know. Otherwise I will pay the 130 to get the strategic code from ford and send it in with my order.
Thoughts anyone?
