That is still off the shelf, just tweeked to your ECU code and mods.
I know Focus guys like to call that a custom tune, but its not.
A true custom tune is one done specificly for your car from while on a dyno.
I barely consider my custom program (sent in to Superchips and tuned from dyno results) to be a "custom" tune.
Well, people have taken their SCT chips bought from vendors and had them dyno'd to check the gains ans it's about +5whp/wtq.
And people who've had them dyno tuned haven't yeilded anymore power.
It's all in the tuner you buy the chip from.
I agree that dyno tuned is best but why pay $150hr and $300 for a chip to get basically the same gains...
