Hey Guys - I'm sure you've seen that the Bama Performance Team has been hard at with their 9-Second S550 as well as their new and improved V2 Tunes but they're just now wrapping up research & development on their Automatic Tunes. We just recently brought on an automatic 2015 GT and in bone stock form it was able to best some pretty solid numbers 361 RWHP and 342 RWTQ While they're respectable figures the Bama Performance Team wanted to focus on making some more power along with cleaning up the driveabiltiy.

The guys at Bama wanted to dial in just how the power was put down and they made some really dramatic changes to the shift profile in order for their customers to have more crisp shift points, a greatly improved and more aggressive throttle response, and again better driveabiltiy on either WOT or just getting around town!

On 87 Octane and a Bama Performance Tune the S550 put down 372 RWHP and 344 RWTQ and swapping from 87 to 93 octane they saw some really incredible gains to the tune of 393 RWHP and 377 RWTQ!



Just to give everyone a better idea on this again these gains we're all made with the Bama Performance X4 Tuner


Stock RWHP/RWTQ: 361/342

Tuned RWHP/RWTQ: 393/377

Peak Gains RWHP/RWTQ: 32/35

If anyone has any questions don't hesitate to let me know!

That is a nice increase for just a tune on 93 octane!

Makes 1 wonder how the Stock #'s would have faired with 93 octane gas ???

First, Ford warranties the car that Ford built. Once you tune it, that is no longer the car that Ford built - so if the tune causes a problem then it is your responsibility (think of it like taking the Shaker radio out and putting an aftermarket radio in, would you expect Ford to fix the aftermarket radio if it went out?). So you have some risk with tuning that a problem can be traced to the tune either in your engine or transmission, since tunes affect the engine and transmission parameters. If your rear end breaks then it isn't likely a tune issue since that is a hardware issue - but if your engine blows a piston out the side, MAYBE it is related to the tune and Ford would have to show it is a tune related failure and not a problem with how the engine was put together by them.
