What? It’s about $950 for the tune, intercooler is around $800, exhaust is $1800, DPs are like $600.
ZFG DMS 93 tune cost me $1150. That's with the OBDII tuning device added. Intercooler is around $800 but will jump up to $1400 plus, if you get it installed.
And yes, the DPs are $600.

Ok, but that’s not near as much as the other guy was talking about, and I wasn’t referring to install as that is always super objective depending on where your located and different mechanics. But yeah, you’re not wrong either.

I have the exact same 93 ZFG tune on a stock 2023 ST. I have the DMS tune tho but I basically keep it in Sport mode. My dragy numbers are slightly better than yours but I haven’t done a full 1/4 yet. My DA was a lot better congrats brother! I’d like to hit up a dyno and see if I can possibly tweak it some more. Maybe do an E50 tune.

Wow thanks for posting that, I recently got a ZFG tune for my 2020 stock explorer. Haven't tested it yet, but I didn't realize it made that much of a difference in 0-60. I was only expecting something like a 5 seconds flat, I didn't expect it to get into the low 4s.

Depending on the ZFG tune and engine conditions, the tune can provide up to 100 AWHP.

From my reading, assume Race=approx 100, Performance=80, DD=60 and Tow=40. Oversimplifying, but it gives you an idea, where each one falls from Race. I feel like his percentages for the modes are 100% race, 90%, 60% and 40% as you reduce the tune. Once again, oversimplification from reading his site and posts.
