Default Can Brenspeed write this tune?

I have hotrod cams and am wanting to put them in my car. I know brenspeed does not sell them so I was unsure if they would write a tune for them. They sold me my SCT2,steeda cai and wrote me a tune for my current mods so Im hoping the can do this.

They can and will write you a tune, but they will suggest that you use phase limiters with your cams.

they can write one and if they were
to sell it to you, it would probably cost
you the normal custom tune price.

i think most who have those cams would
agree, your best bet would be to get
a dyno tune.

the brenspeed tune might simply be nice
to have though, in order to drive around
until you get the dyno tune.

no limiters required.

2 new cam phaser bolts are required.

harmonic cam bolt, not applicable.

The cam bolts need replaced because they stretch when torqued. Cam phaser limiters
are not required by Ford, but Brenspeed recommends them. There is more info about that
on their web site.
