New to Ford tuning. I know tuning a stock GM vehicle can add some HP. Is it the same for Ford or are they tuned aggressively form the factory?

Yes of course. The WOT lamda is fairly rich, and the timing table isn't aggressive at all. If you're running 91/93 octane instead of 87 you can pickup a fair amount of power. I ran E85 on both of my N/A 3v's with very good luck. I'd stick a tank of good fuel in it, and throw some timing at it. the knock sensors in those cars are very accurate.
A tune for 93 octane will generally gain 15 rwhp or so, but there are great improvements to throttle response, and transmission shifting.
Thanks for the reply's! So it's the same as stock LS vehicles. Add a little timing and clean up the rich PE tables from the factory.
Eric, I found your "How to tune you Mustang guide". Can I follow the steps from ETC Max throttle angle and on down? This is a daily driven car that I run 93 octane in and was just looking for a little more power.

I have it on my to-do list near the top.
In transmission topic i posted i have dump from firm shifting tune and same parameters entered to hpt, so you have exact compare so you can easy find missing tables. If it will help, let me know, i will send them to You

Eric already has the files you sent, but thank you
It doesn't have to be perfect, it just needs to be done in two weeks...
A wise man once said "google it"
Are those Mustangs you have fitted with the 6R80 transmission?
Do you guys support the 6r80 TCM? Both that and the aussie zf6hp26 fairly similar variants so surely it wouldnt that hard to sort the tcm here
Sounds like Hp have taken the right steps to get the ball rolling agressively with the fords..holefully the aussie ones too
