    Stock tune differences on s197 5.0 Mustangs

    Trying to compare with my mail order tune with a stock file to see what exactly they changed. Car is a 2013 base V8 mustang w/factory 3.73 gears. Stock tune is saved on the SCT unit I think but I'd have to go dig it out of the garage so I'm just using some stock files from the repository.

    Correct me if I'm wrong but the stock v8 tunes for the engine of the same year (13-14 I think were the same) should be the same with the exception of the speedo calibration stuff for cars with the 3.73 diff vs 3.31 & 3.55? As in engine fueling, timing, airflow, etc. is same throughout? I ask because all the stock files on the repository currently are the 3.31 gears so I can't make a direct comparison.

    It looks the mail order tune is largely just timing advances plus some minor enrichment at WOT and a MAF correction for the CAI.

    Hopefully we see a big increase in people DIYing for the 5.0 with the new VCM Editor support.
