Received our 5* tunes today and loaded them in both of our 2014 Raptors. My son and I could not be happier with our choice! Great job 5*!
Over the past week I had several conversations with Jacob at 5*. He is a very nice person to talk with. I also talked with another shop before making my decision. i own a motorcycle dyno shop and have been tuning for 10 years now. I tune 2 wheel bikes, 4 wheelers, side by sides, trikes and carts. Jacob and I had discussed what we both do before proceeding. Since I have very good knowledge of tuning and performance I told Jacob exactly what kind of performance I was looking for and my son and I got exactly what we wanted from 5*.
I told Jacob that I wanted 87,89 and 91 performance tunes. I did not want any harsh shifting but want to get the most performance from each tune. I like the way both our trucks shift stock since we have no lag and smooth shifting. So we decided to get 87 and 89 performance with stock shifting and Jacob recommended we also do 87, 89 and 91 with their enhanced daily street shifting.
Since we had a half tank of 87 in each truck we decided to load 87 tunes in each. I loaded the 87 with stock shifting and my son loaded 87 with the daily street shifting. That way we could easily compare the shifting of both stock and enhanced street. We both immediately noticed that each truck accelerates quicker and smoother than stock tune. My sons truck with 87 performance daily street shifts quickly and so smooth. No hard shifts. Nice difference over my 87 performance with stock shifting. While mine shifts nice, my sons doesn't get into 6th gear as quickly where mine probably should be in 5th and his holds 5th gear at lower speeds on hills where my truck would be in 6th gear lugging along. I'm so impressed with the way my sons truck shifts so quickly and extremely smooth that I'm going to the Daily Street Shifting tune. We will now load 89 performance tunes with the daily street shifting tomorrow as soon as we can get our 87 run out of tank.
Jacob gave me a great package deal for buying both tuners and for what we got nobody could come close for the value. I highly recommend the 5* performance tunes with the Daily Street shifting if you want quick, ultra smooth shifts. Again, with just 87, very noticeable difference over stock. Thanks Jacob!
Will report back after loading the 89 tunes.
