Default 2018 3.5L Ecoboost Tune Updates

If anyone knows of anything coming available for the 2018's please use this thread to post up your knowledge. I looked at a few places and nobody has tunes yet for 2018s.

I don't see why it would be much different then the 2017 3.5L Eco Boost.Search on here for 2017 3.5 Ecoboost Tuner it should pop up in the search function.

Not sure, it could be. When I went to a couple tuner pages it only showed through 2017's.

I'm using MPT on my '17. Give them a call. Maybe no one has updated their site.
I do know Omega tune is not offering anything for the Egoboosts, and don't plan on it per an email with Ken.

Pretty impressive. Too bad I can only get 91 octane in San Diego, CA.

So run a mixture and make 30-50 more hp than 93 does. Plenty of e85 stations around san diego.

30% man, it's night and day. I just use an ethanol tester to first get the ethanol content of the e85 (it's not always 85% almost ever) and test it once a month for 3 months in winter and once a month for 3 months in the summer and kind of average it together if there's a difference and use that for calculating my ethanol content. As long as you're within 10% or so it's no big deal.
