What have you done to your Ecoboosted vehicle today?

I have started to data log the SHO. Need a lot of stock info to compare back to when tuned.

I want to do a comparison when I get my ODB Link MX and Torque Pro.  What parameters are you going to compare?  Besides boost of course.
 
Finally convinced myself to pick up a new set of wheels and tires last week. Decided on 20x8.5" TSW Nurburgrings and Michelin Pilot Super Sports.. HUGE improvement thus far.

Great Wheel choice.... And... Aren't those Pilot Super Sports spectacular!!!!
I still can't believe how amazing they are.. WAY more responsive and stickier than I hoped they'd be, not to mention the weight and rotational mass saved between the wheels and tires. Now to see what that added grip and weight savings translates to at Milan..  ;D
 
I haven't run mine at the strip.  I have about 15-17K on them. They should go at least 30K.  Mine are 18" so rotate about 7% more than yours.  Now that I  have my PPE Downpipes, I will eventually go to Cedar Falls Raceway, if it ever stops raining.
 
I took (parts of) my next secret squirrelly performance mod to the powder coater for PC'ing.

Also began looking at other (color matched) parts for the remainder of it.

Thanks! Ya I wasn't sure but now that they are on the car I really like them. And they came in just over a week.
 
We went to a Mexican restaurant in the Flex....

Honey... the Pacifico is really sweet. :beer:  All those chips and salsa are fantastic. ;D
The Burrito and Enchilada platter with beans and rice were tasty! :bow:  I think we need to come back here more often.... :bow:

Sorry for the late reply.  :-[

I log the following currently:
Absolute throttle (not happy with results, percentages are not correct and top out at 88% instead of 100%)
Ambient air temp
Air fuel ratio Commanded
Air fuel ratio Measured
Engine coolant temp
Engine rpm
Long term fuel trim bank 1 (I haven't seen a difference between 1 and 2)
Fuel rail pressure
Intake air temp
O2 volts bank 1 sensor
O2 volts bank 2 sensor
Speed (GPS)
Timing ADV
Turbo boost & Vacuum

I am still seeing how the car reacts under throttle. I am starting to think I don't need both O2's. I will also drop the Ambient temp soon because the temp on the stock box is maintaining a 0 to +10 deg range.

I do need to do something with the ELM adaptor I am only getting readings once a second which is not enough info.  >:(
 
Thanks!  My MX still doesn't ship til the 28th, hopefully.  I wonder if that throttle trick would work for you?

Throttle trick??? Please share. I have changed the equation on the PID with horrible results.
 
Somebody here knows more about it than I do.  What I can remember is that you turn the ignition on but don't start the engine.  Then you slowly push the pedal all the way down and let up fast.  You do this a couple of times and it is supposed to clear the memory of the throttle.  But don't just take my word for it.  I haven't tried it yet.  Like I said, somebody else will probably chime in about it.
