Default 5star ecoboost tune in development

i just saw their web store and it shows available.... as we know that the custom tunes are in development. Im tempted to purchase the itsx as long if it comes out with canned tunes at the moment. heres the link. Please get to us 5star. Im hoping christmas comes early.

Thanks for the post.

As much as I've been itching to buy the Bully Dog, I'm trying to be patient until there is more than just one player. I'm anxious to see a few comparisons before I pull the trigger.

same here. I'd like to see the difference in curves between competitors too. Spark,stfts,ltfts , boost and final a/fs would be nice to see as well so we can determine who is tuning safely and correctly. I'm also interested to see what they do about the tq mngmnt and trans stuff.

Tq management and trans tuning alone would make the truck more enjoyable. Not much longer after custom tuning is available we'll see broken parts. First person with a reliable 60whp tune with trans tuning gets my money.

I agree a calibration should be more than wot tuning on a dyno and be safe.
Our Ecoboost truck has the tow package rated to tow 11,300 lbs.. We will be dragging this around and a few other areo brick type trailers developing trans mapping.

Here is pic with our F350 6.2 yanking it..

Can't wait to see what y'all can pull off? The last vehicle I had tuned (truckwise) was a 98 S-10 with V6. Believe I used Hypertech back then? I can only imagine how the technology in vehicle computer systems have changed from just 1998 to now!!
