Pls help review tune 2018 Gt

[norcalracer]

I bought a 2018 GT 10r80 with Pypes catless headers stock active exhaust and a AiRaid intake. The car has a tune and I was hoping some of the experienced members could take a look and just point out any issues. Particularly the MBT tables and the knock threshold tables. Also if anyone can confirm the trans tune is stock. At this point, Im wondering if I should continue and optimize this tune or would i be better off with just a stock tune since these are basic mods. Thanks all. Happy holidays.2018 10r80 catless headers.hpt

Here is your stock file

Knock stuff looks pretty normal. Your MBT tables have an extremely high value in 1 cell, in the same cell, for every mapped point. This is completely wrong. SOME of your borderline tables also have high timing in the same exact cell for only some of the mapped points. Either way I would start with a stock file. Im not sure who or why they would make these changes but its very strange and makes zero sense to me,

Thanks. Really appreciate the input. Ill change to stock files.

This isn’t the first time I’ve seen really wacky values in tunes. I’d love to know what the tuner was thinking.

I bought a used Roush nitemare with a nameless custom tune in it. The shifting did some wacky stuff. I found the tuner had set the shift points to where it would never shift out of first between 5 and 15% pedal. Why would anyone do that?

🤣 I have no idea. I could just imagine the kind of drivability that would cause

I was able to put most of the stock timing back in the tune back in January. Now I'm ready to start tuning. My goal is to maximize the power and make a 96octane tune. For NA bolton with catless longtubes, this is what I read:
1) adjust Borderline tables 2-3 degrees
2) bring in PE sooner
3) disable or adjust all the exhaust related fuel protection

Is there anything else i can adjust? Do I have to touch anything in the torque management table?

In Tuning Mustang always No1 do MAF or verify it's correct, then if you would like to adjust spark I suggest 1-2? and not to all RPM, hit power area and monitor it.
Your No3 point is a bit scary, know what you are doing lol. And Yes there is a lot to do but it's all based on what you have done mechanically first then what you would like to achieve.

[Pistol_91]

Don't touch any torque tables if you're N/A.

Thanks. For the 10r80, I noticed the stock tunes are different when comparing between years. Is a particular year a better base tune for the 10r80? For example, is the 2023 10r80 tune beter than my 2018 and can I use it?
