Powerlab’s remote tuning service via HP Tuners delivers the same level of precision and consistency you’d expect from a full in-house dyno session. With nearly a decade of hand-on professional experience and one-thousand late-model Fords calibrated, we’ve refined our process to give you reliable power gains, crisp drivability, and OEM-level refinement tailored to your exact setup.

Every calibration is built using strategies from years of experience, not guesswork. For years we developed and validated our expertise on our own in-house Dynojet, dialing in everything from stock bolt-on's to 7-second drag cars. Whether you’re nearly stock, or fully built and ready to throw down serious power, you get a tune grounded in real engineering, no copy/paste canned data or shortcuts.

Credits are only required once to license an RTD/MPVI with your vehicle

(Do not purchase credits if you already own an RTD/MPVI licensed to your vehicle)

(Do not double purchase credits when adding a device - you only need the amount listed for your vehicle above)

An MPVI4, windows laptop and “stock tune” add-on are required for tunerlocked vehicles. We will send you a genuine VIN-matched stock file to overwrite the current tunerlocked tune and revert your PCM back to stock. You may then switch over to the TDN app if desired.

Powerlab Performance Remote Tune via PCMTEC

Powerlab’s remote tuning service delivers the same level of precision and consistency you’d expect from a full in-house dyno session. With nearly a decade of hand-on professional experience and one-thousand late-model Fords calibrated, we’ve refined our process to give you reliable power gains, crisp drivability, and OEM-level refinement tailored to your exact setup.

Every calibration is built using strategies from years of experience, not guesswork.

TUNE LEVEL DESCRIPTION

Level 1 — Stock/Cold Air Intake/Exhaust

Level 2 — Intake Manifold/Fuel Injectors/Throttle Body/Pulley

Level 3 — Supercharger/Turbo(s)/Camshafts/Nitrous

PCMtec remote tuning is not a “plug and play” or hands-off service. Clients must be comfortable with basic computer and software tasks, including:

• Creating a PCMtec account using the same email address used for your tune order

• Downloading and installing PCMTEC Flasher

• Reading and emailing your vehicle’s stock tune file

• Flashing tunes received via email

• Recording and submitting data logs during the tuning process

Clear step-by-step instructions will be provided, but the ability to follow directions and navigate the basic software is required.

Important Notes

PCMtec is not compatible with current generation HPT devices. A supported OBD2 tuning device and windows laptop is required. We use OBDX Pro FT, which is also recommended by PCMTEC. Additional information and ordering your device can be found through this direct link —→ OBDX Pro FT

We are responsible for the licensing credits for your vehicle and this is already factored into pricing.

Selecting “multi-tune” does not include additional tunes— just the ability and credits to use the feature. Additional tunes must be purchased under “add-ons” along with your order if opting to use multi-tune functionality.
