25th Anniversary #9772
just to follow up - moving onto interior parts now, the engine runs great! taking the car up to AED next Friday to have it dyno tuned...
just not digging the LUND tune via remote and not even remotely close to the driving style that they're suggesting to road dyno:
The process to get the log is this:
With the car at operating temp,
start logging idle for 3-5 minutes,
then rev the RPM to 1500 RPM and hold 10-15 seconds,
then do the same for 2500 RPM and 3500 RPM.
Keep the engine running and proceed to drive it.
In 2nd or 3rd gear do a couple SLOW RPM climbs from 2500-5000 RPM.
DO NOT go WOT. Stay part throttle.
THEN, do ONE 2nd or 3rd gear 2500 to 7200 RPM WOT log.
Come to a stop.
Let it idle for 1-2 minutes.
Stop the log and save it. It'll be a long log but it'll give me good info.
anyone interested in buying my HP Tuners MPVI3 ? https://www.hptuners.com/mpvi3/

To be fair, a whole bunch of us have successfully navigated the Lund tuning process and had good results. Myself three times. And no, I don't work for them or get any commissions. If you didn't have the problems with your Coyote you likely would have ended the Lund process with a good running engine like the rest of us. And a lot of forum bandwidth saved. Which BTW, I'm still not getting the root cause of why four injectors failed. All on the same bank. Hopefully the root cause has been found and corrected. What I've learned in my multiple years is that electrical problems seldom heal themselves.
You're fortunate to have AEP close as an option. Arguably an actual dyno tune is perhaps better. If not at least a little less stressful. That WOP test on the street takes the right place and the right time. But I have yet to find a local tuner that will do the Coyote crate engines. Mustangs all day long. But mention the crate motor calibration and they're not interested.

Do you think you'll be able to do those WOT pulls with traction? Please be safe.

Many of us have... definitely not for the faint of heart.
