Newbie with Backdraft Interest

Our sc Coyote builds so far have had restrictions. 1 was a Roush crate so we could do nothing without impacting warranty. The next 1 was destined for CA so it needed to run on 91 octane and it was with an automatic. Just did another as a winter upgrade that was on the 11.1 Aluminator so we had that restriction. However we've got some builds now that will open things up...

1 on the SC low compression Aluminator.
1 on the SC low comp Aluminator but with VMP blower and running on E85
1 on stock Coyote with stage 3 cams, cobra jet intake, and other tweaks.

Lund works remote with us, since we own the dyno it's not an issue to wait overnight for the optimal tune to come back.

Damn! This are going to be some great builds. That VMP is going to make some serious power and the N/A build will be interesting as well. These will be 3 great options....can't wait to see how they turn out. The blown builds should lay down 600rwhp like cake work. Unbelievable how much power you can reliably make out of the Coyote!

I have to assume Lund tunes for part throttle & mpg. I haven't been a fan of the EFI setups for the traditional motors but I know they must be night and day over the carb route when properly setup. I will go out on a ledge and say I bet the majority of the issues related to EFI you hear are from installers that are not proficient at what they are trying to achieve....I don't buy into the whole "auto tune" theory where you just slap on EFI and let it self calibrate and hit the road.

What did you buy? BDR or SPF?

Neither at this point. I have some other stuff going on and quite frankly got burnt out kicking SPF and BDR back and forth. I was trying to squeeze to much stuff into to short of a time frame. I want this to be enjoyable and not a race to make a decision.
