Nope, just starting on them we mostly have been in imports with the exception of some turbo domestics. My brother is a pretty knowledgeable tuner.

He may very well be....but unless he has worked on these ecoboost he may get pissed off at times lol...ive tuned before but these were very different.

Its torque based tuning...never really seen anything like it

Be warned the tuning will torment you if you are a perfectionist which im sure you will say you are...but good fof you if you are doing it for customers they wont know the difference...a few may

I was on the dyno in the fall...ive made some substantial improvements and discoveries lately so i plan on going back to see what they yield ...im hoping for 410-420hp and 480-500 tq with no meth..and maybe low 12's in the 1/4 but i may be dreaming i dunno
I'd say we are...we have one of four dsm's in the world in the 7's. The new ford's are a pita which more recently we found out on the 2013 ford Mustang gt we built....

I'm looking forward to seeing what we can do on this platform.

Only single turbo on that rustang?...boring....bad designed turbo kit....so you have the primary 02's preturbo which is a no no or you have them after the turbo and so far away and downstream which complicates the 02 transport delay.....shouldve went hellion twin turbo like i did lol

I never said that...either way I can tell you have some knowledge ;) we stay pretty busy with the imports especially the dsms and evo's but these will prove to be a good challenge as well as the st we have coming into the shop.

I just can't stand the fact that I can't get even boost. This thing is all over the place.

Not keeping this thing for long because of this.

I'm certainly open to a suggestion. I'm not buying a new tuner so they'll have to be able to use this SCT. Lund was trash, and I guess the company I'm using now isn't so great either.

I'm afraid to shell out another 100-200 bucks to get another half-bad tune.

Lund is garbage.....I had a crappy dyno tune on a s'charged mustang even though he is a self proclaimed god....I think a lot of tuners rely on people being clueless, it's ashame and they never offer refunds

If I was a dealer I'd consider giving you a tune...contemplating it lol

I can vouch for Matt at gearhead automotive performance and I'm a tough critic...Give him a call or email him

Thanks,

I might just do that.

I called my bank and opened a case against Lund. Won it pretty easily. They had a dyno graph posted, i sent in my dyno graph-- they weren't even close.

EDIT: His website looks like he's all turbo D trucks.

He does specialize in diesel trucks

But he owns a sho and is smarter than me...him and I have been working on a tune for months now and have gone back and forth with data and ideas...we share a similar tuning philosophy that ive found difficult to find in people as far as doing things the "right" way as opposed to bandaids and forced results

We have tweaked our own cars to our own tatses at this point but he has a solid understanding of this platform that quite honestly i think few people do...ive seen his work in action and it doesnt disappoint....his tune is better than what ive seen on the message boards so far
