I have both cars. First - the Stinger build quality and reliability have killed the Ford. The stinger just runs, and runs well. Its a pleasure to drive but not nearly lag free. Stinger mileage is also pretty poor so dont really expect much savings at spirited driving. The Kia dealer is great to...
zero chance a blower only hit 890. The Gen 5 does wondrous things on this car, I wish I had one as I am a gen 3, but it isn't magic. That would be Injectors / fuel system, e85, ice box, LTH, spicy timing hero run.
The modems are locked to a Vin.
Zero chance this data isn't indexed or easily traced to the Vin. Period. It is a very simple step to bring it together.
I work for a rather large data and analytics company, I might have to talk to one of our privacy attorneys.

Power enrichment, in fords there is a 2d table with rpm and pedal position. There is also a secondary table with commanded lambda typically set to for example .78. Most cals I have seen on new Fords use base fueling table, until the pedal sets the threshold. Now fueling can richen for cat and...
It actually feels like I have more throttle resolution, because the range is so much wider with the extra power. Another things many tuners do is make the transition into boost pronounced so they can guarantee the pedal position has you into PE when load goes high. It takes time to drive in...
Its your calibration. I did my own and the power is very linear with the pedal, drivability is killer, not a on / off switch at all. I smoothed out the valve transitions and spent a ton of time making the speed density spot on and the torque tables just about perfect. pedal position and inferred...
Wrong on so many levels.
VMP abused its relationship with them, promoted a narrative, sold cheap parts out of tolerance, cut them out of their own design, etc.
Patents are expensive and difficult to defend. VMP sent someone else's product overseas to be reverse engineered. Lowest of the low...
logs are important, but its so much better if the tuner can hear, and be with the car. I can feel slight problems in the torque tables when driving, that dont show as IPC error, and there is more than that. If you can, always do it in person.
