HPP does good work tuning the Coyotes, as does True Street. That's about the only two I'd trust in the area.
I decided on the TVS because of the torque curve. KB has a lot more room to grow. Why did you pull the KB...did you build the block?

Stock engine. It's amazing what these things can do, compared to the 2V and 3V's, in bone stock form. I know there are plenty of people living with 700+ hp on the stocker, but I'm not particularly easy on mine. I was going to sell the car too, so I put it all back to stock and was about to start work on my coupe, then the new KB deal fell into my lap. A deal I couldn't refuse, so to speak. We're starting off smaller this time, likely in the 11-12 psi range. Should deliver the car on the 2nd or 3rd so they can get started.

Ken@LundRacing. Is there anyone in the DFW area that has tuning experience with a coyote with FI?

Welcome, I like what you have done with her so far. Anything else in the works besides the custom tune?

I have a Spec clutch, ss line, and 1 piece DS sitting in the garage. A new short block and return fuel system sometime next year, I hope. Then a 4.0 whipple to make some real power...
