Getting Trifecta tuned April 9th!!

Going down to Kansas city to get tuned, I have a couple questions though, BTW I'm running injen cai and charge pipe and a dejon catless dp, im wanting to raise my rpm a little but not sure, i was thinking 7 k would be good but i figured i would ask you guys before I did, so whatsthe best rpm to have it at? Also what kind of numbers should i be seeing at the wheels, I told vince i want the most agressive tune possible while staying safe as far as the motor goes

Thanks

i was told around 6800 is good for the stock turbo, after that it will fall on its face. and also i would assume like 310-330ish

No need to go higher then stock, with a stock turbo and valve springs. Not only has the turbo run out of steam, but you are running the risk of breaking stuff.

The power band drops off once you get passed like 6k. I have my shift lights set for 5800 so that by the time I shift it's around 6k. If you plan to drag it a lot, raise 3rd gear to 7k so you don't have to shift to 4th, other wise leave it alone.

here is my mustang dyno print out so you can see the band drop off-

I was also thinking this. Why not get a Trifecta HP combo tune from Area 57?

Also OP, might check into running a little Ethanol. Seems like it would be abundent in the great state of Iowa.

He is generally known as "the man" when it comes to tuning. I put him, BYT, and Termi on my A list. Never had the ***** to go through with it though.
