If anyone is interested in getting your van tuned , I can set you up.

I've never heard of the platform HP tuner. I'm running FICM and PCM tunes from Power Hungry Performance. I'm pretty happy with how synergistic they are. I've tried tunes from a few others and two in particular never could get it right for the vans.
Some of the tuners do adjust fueling by fooling the ICP sensor but the FICM has all control over the injectors. The nice thing about FICM tuning is it only increases the length of the burn whereas PCM tuning increases cylinder head pressures by advancing the timing. Not to worry about with head studs I guess (which I have) but my PCM tune is still rather conservative at 80HP. Anyway, cool to see how much HP and performance can be coaxed out of an E350. Kudos!
