New tune revisions for 2013+ Explorer Sport & SHO from LMS

[68_GT]

Yeah; that's what I'm talking about -- I got VTA, but the turbos definitely WHINE a lot louder than before.

Hmm; seems to pull like a freight train -- can't wait til Ford day at Cecil.

I'm hoping to see 12.5's again more consistent.

nice what are your other mods ?

I have the PPE Catted Downpipes on the way so they will go in next week.

With LMS V8 tune, I need to schedule a new dyno run to check my numbers. I'll do that after I verify my times at track on the 19th.

Interesting; my gauge has a peak read--so whatever max boost you hit, it will save it and you hit button to see it.

I just went to get food and on multiple occasions I was boosting to 17.5psi.

Uhm? Yeah; I thought we were maxed at 15psi LMAO.

Where is your boost taking it's reading? Before or after the throttle body?

OH; one thing I can say is I can DEFINITELY hear the turbos louder on boost; there's a whine -- this wasn't heard in the very first 2013 tune they had back from Mayish time frame.

Can anyone else with LMS V8 hear their turbos louded under heavy boost?

Yes that's the first thing I noticed was the turbos were significantly louder... love them gauges

Mm, no idea.

Only two lines we can use, one has boost and other has vacuum. I'm in boost line so I can't read vacuum, I need to move it.

Sent from my mobile, I think.

best place is the line that runs to brake booster runs across strut brace.

Right, that's one you posted in another thread that will allow is to rear vacuum and Boost right?

Yes sir.

 

[geswek]

There is an image missing from your post; I think the one I saw is the boost I am using.

Can you send me the vacuum line?

So same tune just a 3bar and it makes a big difference?

No I installed the 3 bar and also loaded up the 93 v8 tune at the same time. It is the first time with the new tune as well as the 3 bar.

no. You have to be tuned for bar 3 sensor. Just changing sensor will cause your car to run like crap.

I know and I have the v8 for the 3 bar. I had the v8 but never loaded it until I got the 3 bar v8 tune. Installed both of them and the car really rips now. I love the shifting, very crisp and quick.

 

[explorergotoluvit]

so is the boost with the v8 and 3 bar running about 15 psi then? does anyone know what psi is with out the v8 3 bar tune?

I saw 13lbs on non-3bar V8 tune today after fixing my boost gauge.
