Why not just tune the dang thing and get more power than waiting for a freakin' tchotchke?

The key supposedly changes 200 engine parameters.
A bit too many to tune, and who knows what ones?

A tune voids your warranty.

There isn't much more power to be found (reliably) with a tune on these Coyotes. They're pretty optimized from the factory. Many of the tweaks in the "track key" tune are at idle using the variable valve timing just to sound like it has a big cam. If they're waiting on CARB certification, there's not a whole lot that they can do to make more power without increasing emissions beyond California limits.
