And you and technical faqs.not everything works how "the books" say they will. We aren't on the same setup by any means so what mine does and what yours does is going to be completely different.

Pushing 14PSI, with the stock airbox mod since the raw 3" one piece intake we thought screwed with my idle. But the idle is still poop and will get fixed one day...

Getting a 3" DP and gonna shop for a mad-mab header during tax season. Plus a new muffler, thinking borla.

Did you cut your intake gasket where the PCV is so it has a passage?

Prefer hpt, I'm just more familiar with it. No other reason though so I may do more research on trifecta. Most of what I've read recently is just in response times as opposed to engines blowing up and what not.

Damn, we used to have a ton of guys tuning around here. Well, at least 3 or 4 anyway.

I'm not really against trifecta - not even looking for a *****-out tune. 1st priority is just passing emissions.

If the books were wrong they wouldn't be books lol. I would think that target AFRs on E47/E85 would be the same for non-DI motors regardless of setup

No idea, I doubt it but I don't even know who runs that site these days. Probably forgot to pay their hosting bill

Yea mustangs are going to kick the crap out of it,not to mention The encryption on the ecm for this car which is changing at every moment.tunes will be difficult. Gm only did a smart thing by making it into a Ferrari because now every mid life crisis will be a c-ferrariviper 7 instead of a miata or mustang.I hop they at least make zo6 versions with more power.

z06 is supposed to be 600HP

Doesn't the 5.0 only produce 412 HP and 390 TRQ?
When the base model C7 is 450/450
