Cross would you modify the tune after receiving it?

Roughing in fields is a great way but think about this, are you familiar with how using boost works? You have a 12.5:1 compression motor way above the factory level of compression for adding boost and for one important reason, knock when boosting destroys a motor. They stay between 8-9:1 for a reason its safer.
Now you can do it obviously but doing it with E85 is safer and gives better results anyway with its ability to cool the intake charge and resist knock.

If you set everything to 0 and boost the motor stock the factory ECU catching you before you hurt something is a BIG gamble. Jack even mentions pulling a lot of spark and then working your way back up which I am sure you heard too.

I wish you luck, definitely error on the side of caution while doing it. I hope all turns out well.

But however back to the E85 files and finding out exactly what the legality issue is preventing their release and what we can do to over come it as customers.
Only Jack can answer this for us.
