Thanks bud! You finally thawing out up there?

Since you do you own tuning, anything in particular you'd like me to report back to you when I get my retune?

Mitco39 · 04-29-2015, 09:47 AM

Yeah I had the car out now for a month or so, Im not one of the ones to wait till all the roads are swept. As soon as the snow is gone the car comes out. haha.

To be honest its been so long that I looked at uprev I dont remember what I had on the go last year. Id be curious if you started to hit a wall with your injectors size.

UpRev is definitely showing almost 100% injector duty at 11.8psi and 7300rpms. We backed my tune down to 11.3psi to go home with. The MAF was still maxed and injector duty was 96-97%. I've got a few things I'd like to gather more information on to try and figure out why UpRev says my fuel system is maxed when other BP kits pushing similar power are only at 75%.

I'll keep you posted.

3" intake tubes installed and retune complete

Pretty hot in the shop and on the streets in Houston so I didn't really get on it so no information on if there is any noticeable difference in throttle response.

New chart (crappy copy from my cell phone pic, will update with dynojet pdf copy when I get to a computer). Ten degrees hotter in the shop than last time. Old numbers were 502/464, so picked up a few hp and lost 20ish ft-lbs. Overall probably a healthier tune since torque is what kills engines. Likely get some of that torque back when weather conditions are better too. Definitely happy with the tube upgrade!

MAF readings are no longer maxed but injector duty is right at max. Next upgrade, after summer, is Phunks return setup, 1000cc and E85!

Cleaner Graph

tonyHTX · 05-04-2015, 10:44 AM

Is the EBC holding constant 12.5 psi? Do you think you need to add some gain?

I didn't really get to play with the car much to be able to answer that. It was hot in the shop and I just told Johnny to dial in the new intakes and lets get her off the dyno. On my way home it was so hot I was getting 140deg IAT so I didn't really beat on it. The rest of the weekend was completely booked so haven't driven since. Should be able to play a little on Friday since it's my day off.

I will say that in the past, according to my boosting gauge, it holds pretty steady all the way thru the band.

I see, but looking back at your old graphs it seems the curves are getting smoother right? It is nice to be able to see the incremental changes that you have been making.

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

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

Thanks bro!

It's been a lot of fun. Although I know what's next on the list, mods are done for awhile. I'm just going to enjoy the car!
