I think now would be the appropriate time for an acceleration video/speedometer footage. Just saying...haha
Mine is flashed back to stock now, but with factory tires the 91-93 performance tune would bark the tires in the first 3 gears.

BIG surprise for all the aspiring Formula 1 minivan drivers in this area, but only if they proved themselves hungry for a small slice of humble pie. (well, I actually only did it once)

I don't know what it is about women in minivans here. Even when I had my Camaro SS with the hood scoop, red "SS" letters on the fender (we all know that red = horsepower), and an exhaust that sounded straight out of NASCAR, minivans would powerbrake at the light next to me.

With the SS a good blip of the throttle would usually make them rethink their activities before the light changed. The Ranger is just too quiet :)

Edit: Found a pic of the old girl.

Looks like an easy kill for a V6 minivan, eh?

I’ll work on getting this weekend, I’m curious myself, I was reading through some other forums and I think some have clocked 0-60 in the mid 5’s and based on the ol’ butt test, it deff feels like it.

I honestly probably will never tow in the immediate future, but I do plan on asking for all 5 of the tunes as well just in case. So glad everyone loves this tune, just makes waiting that much harder!!
When you first order and get your tunes it's hard to imagine....but you will get used to the performance gain....but the fun will never run out I promise. Just be careful.....the Po Po will be looking for you now. ;)
Papaw here knows all too well....lol :curse:

Just uploaded my stock file and requested tunes. I know I likely won‘t receive them until next week, but fingers crossed they may come through by the end of the day Saturday ?

Worst case, I’m sure you’ll have them by Monday, mine took exactly 2 days from the time I uploaded the stock tune. Best part is once you have the performance tunes it literally takes like 2 mins to flash, unlike the 15 mins it took for the stock pull, and you’re ready to roll. It’s kind’ve odd ar first, if you have it in regular D, you won’t notice too much difference taking off of you are light on the pedal, then stepping about half way you launch pretty quickly, put it in S and you’re cookin!! Totally different animal, haven’t stopped smiling.

Can‘t wait. I’ve done full bolt ones to most vehicles I’ve owned but this is my first time dipping into a tune. From everything I’ve read it is the best bang for your buck, and these guys are the best for this vehicle. I’m sure I won’t be disappointed!

Has anyone messed with the tire size recalibration? I’m trying to read my way through this whole thread and am about half way through and haven’t seen anyone mention it yet. Is it as simple as putting in new size or revolutions per mile in one of the menus?

What size are your tires? The stock value is 660 and I adjusted mine to 638 with 265/70/17. It's now close, it's about 1-2 mph off but better than the 5-6 before. The only info I could find was in this post.

I’m running the same size as you. I figured I wouldn’t be able to dial it in exactly, but if I can take a little more of the guess work out of the equation on the highway then I’m happy.

Yes, it only writes over 11 blocks of the 95 block stock tune.....

I just ordered this today and am looking forward to a tow tune. I recently swapped out tires, shocks and added a sway bar to improve towing profile. Has anyone had any issues with these tunes here on the forums? So far I have only seen positive reviews.

As far as the Livernois tune goes I haven't seen anyone here have any issues with theirs. It's nice because you can also calibrate for the bigger tires with the tuner.
