V12V recommended tune settings?

Hi all—happy 4th! I ordered a VelocityAP tuner about 6 months ago during one of Stuart’s specials. I’m just now getting around to send VelocityAP my stock tune so they can modify it. What other settings should I have them do to the tune in addition to their “magic”? I’m not even sure what my options are...any guidance would be awesome. Thanks all!

-Dan

Remove torque limiter, tune VVT by advancing intake cam between 1500-5000rpm (if it's the 2015+ version, pre has no VVT). Some extra Rpms To (300-400 safe). Sharper throttle response

Excellent. Mine is a 2012 6-spd so no VVT for me. Thank you for the guidance!

You can have a custom map adjustment for the exhaust bypass, so can make the regular mode copy the sport mode and when in sport mode can have the exhaust wide open. If you already have an exhaust or pull the fuse, can also ask to disable the P1488 that stores.

Rpm can be bumped, generally 200rpm is done, power is already falling off at the stock limiter and it's just over reving for no reason on the NA V12, bumping 200rpm just helps keep the limiter out of range. It does help land the next gear at peak power but that would require shifting at the limiter which most don't do..

If you double clutch, throttle mapping can also be adjusted to better aid throttle blip.
