Tested out a new computertune on the Mustang. Woke it up HUGE. Still needs fine tuning. Had an issue with a lean code (popped up after shutdown & restart)so it's back to the tune I had before. Before it threw the code it was noticeably faster though. Updated tune should be setup by the end of the week. Next weekend is more testing time. Some pics...
sweet paul. how are you liking the 400 ish rwhp mark? how does it feel? think you will be happy with that? im shooting for between 400-450 rwhp. i drove an 01 procharged cobra that was tuned right about there. im hoping that will be enough to keep me happy. it was alot of fun.
I'm happy....for now.....:evilgrin:
The things a computer tune can do to these trannys puts the huge grin on my face!
thought it was a stick! i love the clean, subtle look of that car. the 3 valve cars are realy growing on me. my car needs a tune. bad. im trying to get a few things together too take advantage of the dyno tune. it needs gears bad as well. the T56 isnt the right tranny for a NA car at all.... midpipe, intake. god willing a procharger but with the new mortgage its much tougher to justify this stuff.
With the new tune I'm shooting for 12.2's with the stock gears and tires....
I'd find a 03-04 Cobra setup for your car. I let one slip by for $1500 COMPLETE -- blower, intercooler, piping, injectors, pump -- Everything!!
It's on my list for the Cougar.....need a way to mount it though...
...
yeah. that would be sweet but, it would be easier to just throw a P1SC on and call it good. i still want to keep the shaker too. not looking for anything earth shattering. just want to keep up with the joneses.
i imagine it wouldnt be all that hard to machine some sort of plate to make that work. maybe even a carb lower intake with some injectors machined in or something. it would be cool thats for sure.
I have to admit that is one of the very, very few S197's I like. I love how clean and understated it is. Very nice.
12.2's on the street tires is what, 11.7's on some ET Streets?
I figure 11.9's Believe it or not you can actually get a 1.8X 60 foot with the stock S197 tires. Takes some practice....
Oh yeah, you guys aren't saddled with 245/45/17's on an IRS :hick:
What size is on there anyways?
235 55/17
We have 3 1.99x and 1 1.989 in the GTO and I really think that's all it has on the stock tires. WAY too much dive in the IRS.
When are you going to have some slips for us? ;)
OH, you have a GTO.....? i didnt know that.
edit...im getting offline now. apparently im in a mood:evilgrin:
hood is slick on there!
Paul hanging out by Jones beach I didn’t think it was so cold yesterday but I wasn’t at the beach I’m sure the wind chill didn’t help.
I’m usually off on Sunday if your looking to cruise I get off at 6am
Paul what the hell no salt or snow in January? Lucky :raspberry
No ice in towards s either. None in the marinas yet too. It's snowed 3 or 4 times, but never sticks. We've had 2 very mild winters.....So far anyway.
I usually leave the house around 6:30. If I'm at work I get off around then and just go straight there.
I'm gonna miss mine... you are tempting me to find a way to keep it. I love the spoiler delete. Got any other plans?
Gears, driveshaft, drag radials.....
