"Looks like it's just pulling timing anticipating the shift to unload the gearbox, seems pretty normal to me"
Maybe, unless he sees an increase in boost at lower rpm and decrease at higher rpm directly related to adjusting the torque and inverse tables. That is exactly what I am seeing on my 16 Expedition. My 15 Explorer Sport got results pretty easily just following the Metroplex writeup. But the Expedition is not pulling the expected numbers. My issue is probably just the restrictive muffler and cats on the Expedition but I expected more out of it. I'll pull the muffler next week and see if my desired finally start to meet up with actual. If not, I'll make a post and hope for help from the great EB tuners on here.
