NGAUGE TUNER ORDERED! Who do I go to for my custom? MPT? JDM? Goose? Does nGauge support all these, OR do they all support nGauge?

I like an AGGRESSIVE tune. I'm in UT and we have 91oct. I'll be adding more bolt-on mods as the months click by, so I need a tune to which I can have changes added....

HELP!

I run JDM and love it, switched over from 5star, but they dont use the Ngauge, they use the SCT.

Most bolt on modifications to gen 2 Raptors do not require retuning, really only Intercoolers that remove shutters or catch cans that throw codes.

I cannot speak for the ngauge, but the SCT device we offer does allow for tire size, gear ratio changes, and TPMS changes and functions as a gauge pod as well if youd like.

The most common feedback I am getting from most customers so far seems to be our tune makes the truck feel like a bipolar Lincoln.

Its honestly tame crusing around town, but if you mash the throttle it drops gears fast to light the turbos and hold the powerband. You can hear in a few videos from customers flooring the truck from a stop chirping the tires on a 1-2 shift and sometimes a 2-3.

91 isnt an issue for us to tune as well.

Go w/ a tune that addresses engine/air/fuel mapping AND tranny programming- I wouldn’t waste a dime on a tune that doesn’t touch the tranny....& a number of companies fall into the category so do your research- as far as I know MPT, 5star, Gearhead, MPT & JDM do alter tranny programming.

@xrocket21 - in your vid's from the track, that looks like an NGauge tuner stuck to your windshield?!?!?

I had it for a 5 Star Tune previously. Now I just use it for the gauges and datalogging.

I have considered using on my wifes explorer sport to tune it since it has the ecoboost.
