[QUOTE="Justin@VMP, post: 14405266, member: 18468"] I would say there are a handful of good tuners out there for the supercharged 5.0L platform. I don't think a majority wins type situation on a forum will necessarily lead you to the best choice, but would certainly help give you a sampling of whats out there. Safe and reliable HP is the goal when calibrating these cars on pump fuel. I believe I have developed some very good calibrations based on my experience on the street, drag racing, road racing, and mile racing with a supercharged 5.0L, both my 12 Boss 302, and my wifes 11 GT auto. The statement that I hold the record for number of blown engines is absolute BS. As has been pointed out on this forum many times before with other tuners, simply having tuned a car that developed issues does not mean the tuner blew it up. All of the major tuners on here are professionals and do this for a living, we would not be if cars were blowing up left and right. The recent car that was brought up on this forum that I tuned was a very aggressive pump gas setups. I will advise a customer what is safe, and what is on the edge, they can choose to push further if they wish. The coyote engine is so good with its 4v head and 11:1 compression that it is capable of making awesome power, with as little as 10lbs of boost, you can get a 50% rwhp increase. We're going far beyond what Ford designed these engines to do. We've had very good success keeping them alive at sane power levels of 600rwhp, but if you push the envelope, and start to nearly double the factory RWHP, there is the potential for failure over time. LQQKOUT, I am sorry you had a problem with your tune, sometimes miss-communications in the setup can lead to an issue. These cars are closed loop all the time with wideband O2 feedback, the PCM corrects for lean conditions. This is not an excuse to let excessive short term fuel trims go, which is why we provide datalog review and adjustment with all of our supercharged tunes. This allows us to verify measured a/f, fuel trims, spark, and knock sensor activity. I am greatly sorry you had an issue with my tune, I don't know who you are, but I will contact you on here.
