BEfore anyone gets ahead of themselves. No 5star has not put any tunes out. They told me that they are still in the development stage. They do not have any beta tunes out. But what this does tell us is that sct has crack the ecoboost. Im waiting for 5star to get something going so I can purchase their product be part of their beta testing

Eco boost still underdevelopment like title says. Products shown in store front will be devices to properly flash truck when avail. Plus the 3.5L motor is in Ford Edge, Flex and Fusions so thats why they are listed in store as avail since we tune these vehicles as well.

Can you post a Ecoboost base run on your dyno so we can see how it stacks up to your 5.0 base /tuned pulls?

Does that mean that the same tuner can be used on my 2011 Edge and yet to be delivered 2012 Ecoboost?

That would be nice. What would be better would be running a tuned 5.0 against a tuned EB. Dyno numbers are good but how it translates to the road would answer Loki 5.0s real question of which is faster.
