I saw E85 and headers and stopped reading. All I'll say is my Gen 3 is running like a top with 93, the OEM tune and stock headers. Lmao
Yep. I may go for a Bullitt tune if I can use it in my 2022 GT. My exhaust is stock except for an H-Pipe. Runs great.

Email Derel Wengerd. Tell him what's going on and ask him what HE would need you to do to fix it. He'll get you straight. I can't believe how many people have these cars and have no idea what to do...

Not worth the time, just do a visual. I sent in a sample, knowing full well some of my bearings were letting go, tons of oil sparkles, and they told me engine oil looked fantastic.

I am not the only person who had this issue. I was told by the company that they only check for really fine particles. If I can see it, it's too big for them to detect. But surely if I can see it, they can too.
Blackstone just told me that they only time they will check for large particulate is with a filter analysis which they said uses a totally different analysis method.

At least they told you. They told me I was SOL.

I only sent them the test because I knew the motor was going, and I wanted to see what I would get back. Confirmed what I already figured out about the company.

Doesn't e85 alone mean it's tuned? I mean I don't think these cars will run on e85 without a tune.
I agree with the sentiment that he seems to be downplaying what's been done to the car though.
No, I run e85 with my proflex. It's not a tune.
