Do you need a turbo or sc for a tune, or can a normally aspirated motor get a tune?

I have seen these Taruses run quick as heck w/a few mods!!! Nothing to take lightly.
Just look at scrmngs brick......embarasses V8's all day long. DI motors keep surprising all. |

60's really? I hope I'm still into this sport when I get that age! My wife would probably shake her head just like she does now. She may not understand why I like cars, but she supports me no matter what.

Everyone and their mother can beat a Snailblazer SuperS*$&....
You can get a tune but it won't do much on a stock motor nowadays, power wise at least. Really woke up my Auto SS though, shifts with very little lag, still there obviously but it's a huge improvement over stock. |

Any n/a motor that uses an ECM to control timing, afr, etc can benefit from a "tune".

OP Camaro is modded too. Stock for Stock i think it will be close for the SHO vs a L99. The LS3 if the driver can launch then the SHO should lose easily stock

Raced a friend of a friends blacked out Taurus AWD from a roll. Supposedly he was running only a tune. Ran him in the G8 close for a bit, pulled him pretty good up top.
The G8 was tuned only, by SCT. Stock everything including original paper filter. Here's a graph of the power my G8 was putting down. That's the power with the "regular" tune. This day I was running the 93 hard tune. Torque management dialed way down, shift points changed and rev limiter raised. I dunno. I think getting that kind of speed, which I don't doubt you can, you might be running something else. Last edited by Sweet Zness; 02-26-2013 at 01:14 AM. |

MYDLIFECRISIS Me and Dertyboi laugh at this hole Thread yesterday at work. but some time you have Toads go to other car forum just to cause trouble. I like having fun with my car and friends cars. Plus Ford & Chev have worked together some much the last 5-10yr most of their cars have 20-40% tech that was design together. So us FANS of one car or the other should not fight with each other.

No fighting here my friend. Like I said, no hurt feelings. I welcome the comradery. I'm enlightened to know that guys are out there modding their "family" cruisers. It'll make you think twice about who you stage up against!!
