Below is the promised video and dyno graph from some of our testing and development process on our XV1 tune. This shows how much power can be made on a true tune only vehicle, but for the best reliability we are going to scale it back, but if someone adds our recommended upgrades such as cai, thermostat, downpipes, and exhaust this number will be able to be achieved while retaining the reliability that we have been known for since the first days of EcoBoost tuning and performance upgrades.

As always, stay tuned for the progress of this, and all of our EcoBoost development here at Livernois Motorsports by subscribing to our YouTube Channel, and of course following this thread.

This is a true "on the fly" tune change. But you are absolutely correct, you could have a tune that was setup for meth on one position of the switch, and off on the other in case you ran out. Then you wouldn't have to limit your fun because you ran out of methanol.

400whp doesn't seem watered down at all. This is 93 vx1? I assume a 100 oct vx1 would be slightly higher. Thanks so much for your work and positive customer relations.

So with 400hp we should see many lms trucks in the mid to high12s we shall see I guess

Would be enough to make me change but I will believe it even the track times show the increase

Well good job. BUT is that really all you all got? I do think that is watered down. In house dyno number correct? Come on all that built up for 8 more HP than SoCal 91 octane tune. Really? And the SoCal run was at an independent dyno Shelby in 96 degree temp and you only got 8 more HP. What a shame. But if you all are happy and your customers are happy well good job.

Boosted you should be well over 400hp with your super high boost tune. You were gonna dyno it right? Should break any dyno record. At the track these numbers aren't going to mean a whole lot though. 10whp either way is a good or bad start away from a win.

I think with good weather a high 12 is do able for my truck. You know I will run the new tune when I get it. Also next Friday my truck will be on LMS dyno. That should help out a bit.

You should probably stop using my neighbor and good friends dyno run as proof of SoCal's so called "superior tune." Maybe you would also like to include that immediately after that dyno run that you are referencing, when he was able to see how TERRIBLE that tune was for his truck, he immediately got rid of it and took the tune off the truck for good. I haven't seen you mention that? If the tune is so watered down then stay in your SoCal thread, there is plenty of water down there!

Then yes, I'd be interested.
