Another 5.0 tune thread with a twist

[Flash69]

Looking for input on tunes/tuners. I have an SCT x4 from Palm Beach with a Palm Beach tune for my 2022 5.0. I’m having issues when the tune is on the truck. Sometimes randomly it idles rough, like it’s certainly got multiple misses. Sometimes when I’m driving regularly down the road I hear what sounds like detonation/pinging. I have been running 93 only for months. This also does not happen regularly and I have zero issues ever with the stock tune. I contacted Palm Beach and they said I need to data log so they could troubleshoot. I just don’t have the time to data log to possibly go back and forth to test different things. If I had time and they were local with a Dyno, I would certainly do that.

So, I’m looking at either ordering the Omega tune to use the SCT tuner I already have or going with Livernois tuner and tune. I used the Omega on my 2013 5.0 and it was really good. Oz recently released the Omega tune so I’m concerned about it being super new. I know a lot of people are happy with the Livernois tuner/tune however I don’t see Dyno numbers on their website. Oz Tuning posted their dyno numbers for the 22 5.0.

Is anyone here running the Omega tune yet? I wish I could see numbers for both to see what Livernois is getting out of the new Coyote.

Almost 40hp and 50 torque gained.

Thanks for posting that video. Seems Livernois has much more power than Oz does.

I have their ecoboost tune and it's monstrous.

Those peak gains are misleading. Comparing stock on 87 octane and only reving to 6200rpm. Vs tuned on 93 octane revving to 7000rpm. Judging by the curve it looks like stock would have been more like 340whp if revved out to 7000rpm. And willing to bet stock on 93 octane would be 350+whp.

Another one to consider would be 5star tuning. Ran their tune on my 2015 5.0 for almost 4 years without an issue.

For anyone who read this thread, I installed the Omega Tune this weekend. So far truck is funning completely fine with no issues. Also, it seems stronger than the Palm Beach tune.

Glad to hear you're also having good results with the OZ Omega, I've had it on my truck for a few weeks now and I'm still very happy.
