Maybe after nuke bricked his ecu it was recovered and bench flashed. If this is the case then a bench flash usually eliminates all ecu restrictions. I still don’t believe there are different ecu programs in the EU besides power difference between the Nx/is. I’ve since asked two tuners working on our ecu and they say they haven’t discovered anything about it, yet

I don't believe it was bench flashed, from what i remembered it was returned to stock to make sure everything was functional. I trust Tony's opinion since he has worked on ECU files from different countries (UAE, France, Hungary etc.), so he could of found something. I'll just wait and see what happens, in the meantime i'm enjoying the Stage 2+.
You are absolutely correct, ECU was returned stock to me and the tuning process for me became painful, since Tony was extra cautious with my ECU and i tested nearly 16 tunes before reaching where I am, I dedicated allot of testing time for that actually
Thats **** hehe, the downpipe outlet looks much wider than ours

Oh ya FYI guys i just smoked a 350 with an exhaust and an intake will try to make a vid next time since the guy is a friend...
I also learned a trick, from dead stop go 50% throttle for 2~3 seconds before flooring it, it allows a much better spool with less traction loss/engagement

I’m making over 300wtq myself thanks to the BMs, peaking 20 psi which is good for 300tq. Didn’t he hit 266whp 299wtq? Why wouldn’t they advertise those numbers instead. Must be a different map

I think the reason why they didn’t post those numbers is because they didn’t get a full dyno graph, so people can actually see proof. You need to get that setup on the dyno, I would love to see that torque curve with the stacked tune!

am planning to re-dyno on a different type of dyno, the problem is seems in Dubai all garages prefer Mustang, and a single run 100$+ very pricy
