    Anybody here have Stage I cams and didn't get a tune?

    I went to the dyno with my mailorder tune for mods in sig. The mailorder tune was spot on - DaSilva could not improve on it without overstepping timing advance. I know first hand, getting a mail order tune from MD.com is a safe bet. :nice:

    help cant decide which cam to get

    I saw this cam featured on powerblock they used a stock no tune 4.6 and got 11rwhp. The comp's are the highest output units i've seen on the net with the dyno sheets to back 'em up.. VT1's have been getting 30~ish rwhp.. i seen one guy get 33rwhp.

    DaSilva tune blew my head gasket

    I've addressed the possibility of faulty install. I checked the oil and no sign of glycol.. no sign of oil in the resevoir. It's blowing out between the head and deck, passenger side forward towards the valley. Minute bubbles at high idle.. like when you spray soap water on a punctured...

    DaSilva tune blew my head gasket

    I specifically asked for a stout DAILY DRIVER tune. Believe me i'm not holding back any details or laying blame where it not be. Just a heads up to others that read this, my experience might save them some unnecessary grief.
