I would hope so or the money invested since the first tune hasn't been worth it:rofl2:

It is hard to compare the graphs since I have made major changes between all dyno tunes except this last one (intake tube diameter increase). The first tune was V1.0. Second tune was V1.5 plus the swap from Stillen to Fast Intentions Exhaust (less restrictive flow and complete downpipe rebuild). Then Saturday's for the intake increase. One thing to note is the first dynojet graph was power-vs-speed which explains the quick jump in torque.

If you go and look back at my original tune on the Mustang dyno the graphs are similar in appearance but the current tune is definitely more power and in my opinion a healthier tune for the engine. The only major difference I notice between the original Mustang tune and now is that the power never drops off, it continues to climb all the way to 7,500rpms

Might be time to look into warranty on the clear bra. Looks like it's starting to fade?

FairladyZ10PG 07-17-2015 05:35 PM

^yup I noticed that too & to note my clearbra has been doing that for a while lol

All for the ecutek swap. Are you upgrading the fuel system to squeeze some more power out of the stock block or to ensure constant pressure in all cylinders...

Not at the moment. Just swapping to Ecutek because I want all the other features.

Actually dude yes, i just scrolled through the 29 pages on your BP turbo thread, not reading them like i should but just to get an overall idea. You mention you have transmission issues (or was it traction? ) because someone commented tires tires tires, and you start mentioning width of the tire (at least that is my guess).

Then, you recommend using safety wire on pipes, I live in canada and it gets cold is that a reason why wrap the pipes? or just protection.

Lately can you post a picture of your engine bay, focusing more on the intake manifold area, I'm thinking if i can add the "GTR looking inatke manifold".


Thank you!

jwick 12-17-2015 03:47 PM

I had the transmission replaced under warranty but that was preturbo. More than likely I was referring to tire width. I have way too much power for 275s, or at least S04 275's.

I wrap the hot side piping to protect the car from excessive heat from the turbo. It has nothing to do with cold.

I have he stock intake manifold so it looks just like yours.

Lovely build!
