I'm new here but why does this C7Jake guy feel the need to post a picture of his truck every time he posts?

I was told that a 6 month window is not uncommon for new engines/transmissions. If that's the case then we could be getting close. I do know that I'm well broken in and I'm ready for a tune.

Yikes, I hope it doesn't take this long to develop a new tune for the new 2018 5.0.

I spoke with JDM engineering about 5-6 weeks ago and they were still trying to crack the code. He had no timeline but guessed mid summer. I asked for an email when they were ready with the 17 3.5 tunes. Stock tune definitely has a few hiccups. I've noticed a few things with the transmission as well that need improvement. I've only put about 1200 miles on mine since February but I have noticed the throttle response is pretty bad at times. Mines staying in the garage mostly till then....��

a lot less to gain on a n.a. engine so less excitement over 15 rwhp more.

I have no experience with EcoBoost tunes. If my truck was totally stock, what gains in hp and torque could I expect?
