Proof that 87 Octane fuel is limiting your 3.6

I'm a proponent of tuning.
That included my 66 Fastback Mustang, yes it has a carb. Different carb, different cams, headers etc. That's all tuning.
The 16 F-150 I had was tuned through the OBD II port, I went mild and it only gained 20hp and 15tq, But the drivability was where it was at.
The 22 Ranger I sold to get my Gladiator had to be tuned. The transmission tuning sucked. When driving normal it skipped every other gear so when you tried to accelerate it had to think about it before it could figure out what it was doing. After the tune (it was a 2.3L turbo) My mileage slightly increased, I picked up 30 hp and it used every gear. I could chirp the tires going from second to third.
One of the big differences is the Fords can be tuned by downloading a tune and plugging a tuner in to the OBD port. Livernois 5 Star
If you don't like modifying a vehicle and think the engineers that designed it were perfect...well don't. The engineers are limited, by budget, design parameters and the good old EPA.

That Ford 10 speed is actually the whole reason I learned how to tune 7 years ago

I believe it!

@bmpcamry09 Curious here, if im already unlocked through livernois, are there different methods of unlock that would possibly not work with HPtuners?

If i only need to buy credits to brush up the livernois tune or even see if theres anything to gain, i wouldnt mind doing that for the sake of knowing. Just dont want to send everything out again and have the jeep down.

Im really happy with my current tune but hey, you never know what you might find in there.
