ok, so i cant just get a tuner and pull a couple degrees out of it? im guessing messing with the timing will through out the air fuel ratio?

how much boost are you making?

Only if you had the original tuner for that tune you can take a couple of degrees out of your car. And no taking a couple of degrees out will not affect your tune.

When you get a new tuner the car as to mate to it. Without the original tuner your car would have to get re-tuned.

The only real different I see between ours is I had the stage 5 Port and run an upper only but mine mad 518 502. I would get back, buy an ex cal3 and take it straight to Greg up in Downey. It will need a retune and he is the best for our cars!!!!! Congrats and hope this helped. Just a lil ole 60-70 shot made mine jump to 571 hp and 616 tq lol

Another difference is your car is a fat pig now with that 1 ton roll cage you put in:) you just want back to square 1...

400.00 + tuner and yes as long as you dont got wot that is when a stock tune cannot compensate for drastic changes.

ok thanks.

it doesnt have a stock tune, it is tuned for the way it is set up right now.

am i going to have to get the stock tune from ford before i get it retuned?

or will i be able to bring it to the tuner as is and get a hand held and let him tune from there?

Yes, and you will never make more TQ than me no matter what you do....

How will this combo make just over 500 and your combo only makes a little over 500 E?

a little over 500???? Where did you get those numbers from? Oh that before my tune video at RET... everybody knows that already
