lests not over look AJP....

I've only ever heard good about AJP. Gearhead is a good, driveable tune but the power just isn't there. It's the mild, roadtrip tune for me with the auto octane feature which is invaluable when 93 isn't available.

My E30 tune is almost magical, drives like the stock tune in the first 1/8 of the peddle. then like it wakes up 1/4 and turns into a sleeping monster 1/3. Then turns into a mad but hungry demon after 1/2 throttle and 3500 rpm. after that all bets are off!
the trans shifts are so fast and smooth it's just fun. after my LMS tune the drive train is soooooooooooo much happier.

Fastest ecoboost sho to date.
AJPTurbo is very good, especially with the communication about what he is doing and seeing. I would say he is definitely quick to respond and I never had any issues with any of his tunes.
I would say GearHead is probably best Overall. By far the best shifting and drivability in any condition. But I've never tried Ortiz so I can't comment on them. I'm actually researching them and will probably be reaching out soon to give them a try.

Wait, you're saying the car likes to be able to shift out of first?? :burnout:

I'm still on the hunt for E85 around here

Stock HPFP and the nitrous was only used as a chemical intercooler.

Use an app called Alt Fuel. I shows me the E85 stations in a 30 mile radius

I've tried a few things, the official e85 site says the closest is 27 miles, google pointed me to three stations that used to sell it but now sell ethanol free.

That's a good call. Gearhead and Ortiz are the best in the game right now imo.

Took the car to the shop to get some extra exhaust hangars, because I was getting false knock, and it turns out I'd bent one so bad the rubber had came off and the X pipe had started to crack. Had that fixed and the car is noticably happier, the idle surge is gone and it's pulling a bit harder.


Whoa, you put a push bar on your SHO? Did you have to cut the front bumper cover?

As some of you know already, but after 6 years with Livernois, I have moved on and changed tuning vendors, after installing the new actuators and intercooler, I saw no improvement and the V10 tune didn't adapt. I went to Gearhead Tuning. I feel with what my current goals are, I think they are the ones to get me there. Loaded my intial tune file yesterday, and was VERY impressed. Ive run my V10 tune enough, that it is my new normal, so I can honestly tell you, def a difference to the good. They fixed an issue I had ever since installing Turbosmart actuators and GH intercooler. I was asked to send a log after talking with Matt since I'm running the better actuators. So I close one chapter, and open another.
