What have you done to your Ecoboosted vehicle today?

[shoman04]

Honestly, I don't know where the cutoff would be for "tune only" status.  I'd assumed stock + tune = tune only status.  Plug gap/change I can justify as protection for the engine, you kinda have to do this if tuned.  Don't have to do (tho good to do) TStat, 3bar, etc.  IDK.

I'm confused on this as well. Just looking for clarity. Fastest "tune only" at 12.66 was lowered right?

The 12.669 is me with LMS stage 4+, a K&N STOCK BOX AIR FILTER. But my car is the lightest  SHO ON the FORUM @ 4120LB OFF THE TRAIN

Had to cover the lugs

I think the center five spokes black out and half circle stay silver would show off the black. I did something like this, the 1st time with my wheels.

I order it to go play with it from the factory, No option but 12S PP package, NO sun roof, NO heated/cool seats, no sun shade, and so on and so on. At the track with a 1/4 tank of gas bone stock MY SHO was 4160lb. With METH KIT, 3" Down-Pipe, 2.5" Exhaust w/X-pipe, 275x40x20 it's 4235lb (1/4 tank) METH tank full.

best TIME @80deg was 12.33sec, At 59deg (the temp @12.66sec) I think with some cooler temp I will hit 12.2-12.1sec!!!!!!

How those #'s drift me into mod land!!! Great stuff. But I'm thinking with some nice temps in the evening after the sun warmed the track and a slight tail wind it's 11's!!!!!!!

1st SHO is the 1st/only to hit 11sec with even with BIG TURBO but he added a custom fwr wheel traction link sys. To kill that wheel hop and better 60's feet. He gave me his set-up I'm going with that before the turbo.

[wasinger3000]

When/if ford makes a 5.0 twin turbo for a production car like they are using in the cobra yet im going to put it in the sho and make it sound like my stang...  The sound of the 5.0 at 8k is just amazing.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOvdwJz46W4

As I've read here somewhere,  best to upload to YouTube and then share link or exact title. 12.9 tune only? Temps? 12.900 was my first run ever at the track this year.

Tune 3bar and 170 t stat. DA was high though.

 

[SHOnUup]

Rough time of year right now. Hot just about everywhere. This Wednesday I hope to have 3 bar and new tune to hit Milan Dragway for test & tune. Stars need to align for a babysitter now.
