Default 5 star 93 perf tune vs livernois 93 perf tune

Hi I dont want to start a argument about which tuning company is best, or tow tunes , but which 93 perf tune has better performance, shifting, economy? I currently have 5 star tunes as well as SCT 93 tune in my programmer, in my 12 f150 eco, I'm impressed with my 5 star tunes but like others always looking for more, I'm also using a snow perf stg 3 boost cooler but not tuned for it

Look at the numbers on the fastest 1/4 list. Unless 5star makes a strictly performance or race tune the livernois is clearly the winner between the two.

Maybe, or maybe the 5Star just hasn't been run in the best of conditions. Hard to say without running them on the same truck, on the same dyno. Ordinary Joe's (no pun intended) Livernois times seem to be around the same as 5Star.

This Should not even be a question.... Livernois is #1 period..... Unleashed and SoCal are battling for #2 spot.

Fastest tune isn't the best tune

Lol at average joes. I'm just going by fastest times list. I'm not saying 5 star isn't fast. Just saying that more people with the Livernois tune hit the track. I reported about a 3-4 shifting issue with the v10. It reminds me of when I had my diesel. It feels like the converter is getting locked in 3rd or earlier rpm than v2. I feel confident that when someone runs this v10 down the track it will be faster than v2 from the shifting or lock up differences alone.
