ring Steeda, Unleashed Tuning and PD-Tuning. First 2 are 'local' to you.

Any Mach 1 owners tuned there cars yet?And if so,what where the results?
Have heard its not really worth the money tuning the Mach 1 due to very little performance gains.

There are no performance gains to speak of since '18. The gains are drivability/throttle connection and 'cleanness' of engine power, or support for E40-E85. Ford fixed much of the initial problems with the Tune-pack for 18+ and the Bullitt pretty much took care of the rest.

Livernois tuned mine and I feel a pretty big difference vs stock. Especially with the flex tune.

How long have you had the tune?
Are you primarly running E85?

I'll eventually get around to having Wengerd tune my Mach 1 when I do flex\E85. I want to make it worthwhile with some headers though first so I'm waiting. The stock tune on these is already pretty good and there's not a lot to gain without changing fuel and adding headers.

Ultimately I want to do the ESS G3 kit as it's perfect for this type of car.

all the datasheets I've seen show headers provide no useful benefit at all - just noise, and a means to remove the cat.

I haven't been able to find much on comparisons with stock vs long tubes because they all involve a tune following the install while coming from a stock car.

Steeda Tune is not released yet because of coding issues.
From everywhere I've read and even asked Lund owner, 93 tune is not worth it (8-10hp). E85 is totally worth it but a huge pain to find E85 and when you do, quality 70%+ E85 especially in the North is not easy to find. I don't want to have to test fuel all the time, plus 35% less gas mileage.
Headers make the interior way too loud for someone my age.
Think I may be stuck with stock tune for once in my life... lol

I've had the tune for about a month now. Even with 91 octane (CA) I definitely tell a difference. I run both. For trips I run 91 and for the dragstrip i ran E85. E85 is pretty easy to get here. When I did data logging on the tuner the car was reading 78% ethanol so pretty good.

aftermarket E-sensor?

It's in the tuning device. Nothing aftermarket installed.

My calibrator touch is what Livernois uses
