Howdy ya'll! I've wanted to share my first tune that I have been working on for some months now. I'm still a beginner, but am working with a '12 F-150 with a 1st gen Coyote and 6R80. Let me know what ya'll think! I'd love to hear back from others of their thoughts, critiques, and overall opinions of the tune. I have 2 variants of this tune. One with VCT (the daily tune) and the other without VCT (track tune) using cam lockouts. This tune has the VCT enabled. Unfortunately a dyno in my area is hard to come by, so this has all been done using VCM scanner.
A good amount of the engines tune has been assisted with the help of Evans Performance Academy Gen 1 training modules (SUPER helpful by the way!!)
The trans tune has been based off of the Magnuson supercharger tune (as far as the shift pressures, oncoming / offcoming elements go)
The shift schedule / tcc apply release has been reworked by me for the high stall converter / turbo application.
Overall, the tune feels pretty refined. The truck responds really well to it.
Here is a lists of mods that have been done to the engine / trans:
Engine:
- Forged bottom end (11:1 CR)
- King main / rod bearings
- Comp Cams 191160 camshafts
- ARP studs (heads/main)
- Billet oil pump (housing/gear)
- Billet timing gear
- Billet chain guides
- Billet rear main housing
- Boss 302 manifold
- Ford perf valve covers
- K&N PCV breathers
- 62lb GT500 injectors
- 440lph DW pump
- Twin GT3076 billet turbochargers @ 7psi
- MAF curve rescaled to fit 3" charge pipe
- E85 fueling
- A/C delete cause if you're going fast enough, its not needed
Transmission:
- CircleD 3800 billet 5 disc coverter
- Stage 3 clutches
- Billet intermediate shaft
Side notes: VCT scheduling is lock in optimum power
I've had a really pleasant experience tuning with HPtuners. The forum has been extremely helpful with a good community.
