[QUOTE="1CEBITN, post: 1023918, member: 10865"] Now that is something that is untrue. The tune is only a part of the overall picture. It is important but it won't keep the engine together. The Mach is not forged, has weak pistons and rods, an aluminum block, higher compression, etc than the 03 Cobra he is running... All which will equal a big BOOM for the Mach eventually, regardless of the tune. The 03's engine can handle more abuse and will withstand the boost, and much more of it, than the Mach or any pre-2001 Cobra will. Keep in mind that a tune is typically done in a controlled environment on a dyno. In the real world, the car will see a wide variety of temperatures, humidity, barometric pressure changes, loads, gas quality, etc... All of that can make any "conservative tune" not as conservative as you thought. [/QUOTE]
