Lund Racing

Palm Beach Dyno

Epic choice! Lund Racing is one of the top tuners for Mustangs, F150s and more, having tuned some of the fastest (if not THE fastest) Mustangs in the country. Their no-bull approach to tuning ensures you've got the best running vehicle with no issues. 

 

Once you've placed your order we will email you a link to the form to fill out for your custom tune. This is where you will list your vehicle information, modifications & any requests for your custom tune. After you've submitted the form, it gets sent directly to Lund Racing and a "ticket" will be started between you, the customer, and your tuner at Lund Racing. All contact from therein will be directly between you and Lund Racing. The typical lead time for receiving your inital tune is 2-3 days*, however multiple revisions can extend this time. 

 

Lund Racing TDN Invite Code**: The TDN invite code will be emailed to you directly once you have filled out the form.

If you've opted for remote tuning from Lund Racing (required for all power adders and extreme N/A setups):

Remote sessions include full datalogging support to dial in the modifications done to the vehicle. Lund Racing will look at the logs and send revisions until the tune is complete for your vehicle. 


Lund Racing will email you their datalog instructions with the initial tune file that is sent. You will datalog initial logs following these instructions to send back to Lund Racing for inspection. This inital datalogging usually entails and idle, neutral rev, and cruise log so that they can review and make sure all part throttle events are dialed in before proceeding to wide open throttle tuning.


After the initial datalogs and revisions are sent back and forth and Lund Racing is happy with them, they will give instructions for wide open throttle (WOT) tuning. You can choose to perform your datalogging on the street or a dyno. If a dyno is utilized, it will need to be scheduled with Lund Racing ahead of time via email.

 

NOTE: All 2011+ Mustangs and F150s are equipped with OEM wideband O2 sensors. This provides the ability to see Air/Fuel data directly in the datalog. On vehicles not equipped with OEM widebands, you will need either (1) an aftermarket wideband sensor and have the signal analogged from a 0-5V output through the flash device into the logging software, or (2) a dyno that is reviewing the air/fuel data plotted on the dyno graph. This should be discussed/decided on prior to completing the WOT portion of the tuning.

If you've opted for remote tuning from Palm Beach Dyno:

Palm Beach Dyno Remote Tuning can be done in a variety of ways, but the important detail is that Palm Beach Dyno is tuning your vehicle through the internet at your location. A base file is provided according to the modifications on your vehicle. You then log the car per Palm Beach Dyno's instructions and email it to their support site (http://support.pbdyno.com) making sure to include your Tune Number. Palm Beach Dyno will review the datalog, create a revision if necessary and provide further instructions.

 

This process is repeated until the car is fully tuned both at WOT and part throttle. The logging can be done on a dyno of your choice, while driving the car on the street or a combination of both. If you have purchased the Gold Level or Platinum Level Remote Tuning, you can call Palm Beach Dyno for phone support OR schedule your Trackside Support Sessions directly with them, making sure to reference your original Tune Number.
