SCT might be put on the backburner right now. I was going to pick up the software next week, but I think I might pass. They need to be willing to work with me, in order for me to use their product.

Adam I currently have the P1.5 bolt on kit on my 2016 Ecoboost. I just bought the turbocharger upgrade also from MA Performance. The website says the turbocharger is good for 390 HP and 410 Torque. What is a max number on each to be at just in case my tuner surpasses these numbers? Also do you think I will need to upgrade the stock fuel injectors?

The injectors aren't a limitation on these cars, the high pressure fuel pump is. I highly recommend using a tuner that has experience with these cars. If they don't make the necessary changes to support the big turbo you will have a problem on your hands.

Pump gas I limit the car to about 390hp because the car really needs octane to make more. On race gas, I would push the car a little further to about 420-430whp. Torque should always stay 430 and under.

You can't sell it on the forums or to any other Ecoboost guys, they know better. Put it up on eBay!

I definitely like this thread as I had the same concerns. I've been reading on the forums that people gained xx amount of gain in their HP/TQ but how does that impact on the engine. I use 93 octane gas in my EB, if i get Cobb AP and get it tuned by [MENTION=19118]Tune+[/MENTION], what are good numbers (gain in HP/TQ) that are perfect for daily driving and won't see any problems with the engine in the long run. As of right now, my budget is only allowing me to get AP and tune. So what are the best numbers I can climb for?

Bone stock, with my E-tune on 93. I have made 302whp/385wtq, through an Auto. From there I would do an Intercooler and Actuator upgrade.

So Adam for sure ur not gonna work with SCT? Or its going to be a slim chance
Slim chance. They are going to have to reach out to me to use their product. At this time, I need to focus on my build.
