Have you had a chance to drive it after the tune? It makes the truck much more fun to drive.

What does your shop estimate for drivetrain loss? If 25-30% then your numbers are decent

30% would put my baseline pull at 414hp. Factory stock is 411. I think that's a Volant and Roush. I also think 30% is high loss factor. I'm thinking dyno calibration and heat/bad air flow.

Was this before/after just for the 5 star tuner or was this also including the gains from your intake and such?

This was just a before and after for the 5star 93 perf tune. Roush exhaust and Volant intake were already installed.

I have driven it. It's mean and fast. I'm loving it. I'm convinced those numbers are low, especially after driving around last night when the temps had dropped into the 60's. Cool air, lots of it moving, and the truck was running great. I assume it has also has some time to adapt. Will be driving it back across the country to AZ soon and using an 87 economy tune. Will be exciting to see the difference in power and how good it will be on gas.
