Message: [QUOTE="Power Hungry, post: 1380447, member: 1375"] One other issue that FICM tuning addresses is the ability to adjust the SOI limitations, injection ramp rates, inductive heating, and other functions and limiters not available through the ECM. Plus it allows for ECM tuning that doesn't require the spoofing of the ICP transfer function or Desired ICP tables, which helps provide valid diagnostic data when datalogging. I wouldn't argue that, from a WOT standpoint, ECM tuning alone is capable of making good power. It's just that tuning is more that just what you achieve with your foot on the floor, and drivability is at least as important (if not more so) then just a high HP number. Ask anyone that has run a certain tuner's files (particularly the M/T files) and has had to deal with a ridiculously sensitive throttle off idle. It doesn't matter that the file might make good power when you can't drive through a parking lot without the truck lurching everywhere. Like 7.3L tuning, the injection pulsewidth tables are an integral part of tuning for any non-stock injectors. It just happens that the FICM holds those tables instead of the ECM, and that ultimately makes FICM tuning just as important as ECM tuning. [/QUOTE]
