Default Best tune ever?

moved to C7 section.

Buddy got a tune for his Mustang, "Ghost Cam" from Lund Racing. Must say it really does make the car sound amazing, at idle of course. Anyone done this on a C7? Possible? Saw a video of someone manually doing so with HP tuner on a C5, but his results did not really compare to the downloaded Lund tune.


Was told - Intake Cams are retarded 20 degrees, Exhaust stays open at zero degrees. Creates overlap and duration for that large Cam sound!

This is only possible on the coyote (mustang) because of the VVT and DOHC. You have an intake cam and exhaust cam and you can adjust the cam phasers via tuning to create overlap at certain mapped points. It also (sadly) prevents you from running flex fuel due to how the coyote pcm interprets ethanol content.

In short - for single cam pushrod corvettes, you gotta throw a real cam in there if you want the chop.

Lund has been doing custom tuning for a while now and he has worked with and learned from the best.
