Hey OP, just like you I was interested in the back end of tune files. They are basically a shit ton of tables similar to a series of queries based on parameters of the running conditions. You can get a thing call Accesstuner Race from Cobb tuning if you buy their stuff and apply for the program...
Okay, So this post might get some hate but here's my .02. If you are using an organizer (Jzilla for example) who has a beginner group with dedicated instructors for each beginner driver and you know your limits as far as ability and don't be an idiot, then honestly you don't need track...
Using virtual dyno, I have gone from 260hp/318tq with just Accessport running Cobb OTS stage 1 93 to 291hp/361tq by adding a Mishimoto intercooler, new spark plugs, and a custom tune from Tune+. Virtual Dyno is roughly accurate as far as numbers go (used it on a previous car I had dyno'd). It's...
I get where your heart is but you also gotta consider the speed and attitude of people driving on track. They are testing their limits which is something that very rarely happens on the highway. I saw 3 wrecks that day. Wrecks happen during track days... a lot...
What I'm hearing is Germany and Canada suck for track days which is sad to hear. kwpony, you should look around outside of your insurer and see what insurance there is available. maybe hit up some of the track day websites for tracks there and email the people in charge of them to ask for...
I'm not sure about Deutschland. But here in the states we can get additional insurance coverage from third parties. I used a company called Lockton motorsports to get a 1 day policy specifically for the track I was driving on. had I wrecked they would have paid for the cost of my car after my...
Without a tune you wont see much. (FROM A SHADETREE TUNING VIEW) The cpu will most likely drop your boost targets down to meet the power the cpu calls for. without a tune to change this you will probably just see your boost pressure drop yet still have roughly the same power. THAT BEING SAID...
I'm glad you saw this! I saw you posted your laps on YouTube. Looked great! Your line was better than mine, more confident on corner entry and you were entering corners faster. Sure thing you can ride along! hopefully by then I'll have brakes set up and an oil cooler to help with temp management.
For comparison: I ran basically dead even with a 2015 model WRX (non sti) that had suspension and brakes done. and held my own against my buddy's track prepped 300zx (non turbo). the 300zx was running full suspension, brakes, and had Hankook rs3's. I was within 2 sec of his best time so I'll...
Hello all,
So this past weekend I took my Ecoboost mustang out to Road Atlanta for six 20 minute session on track. I figured I'd do a write up here for those curious how the EBM performs on track with minimal mods.
For reference, I am currently running a mishimoto intercooler, pre gapped...
It's come time for me to sell my Mustang to help finance a new house. I've owned the car since new and loved it the entire time. The car is perfect inside and out aside from one small scratch on the passenger side rear quarter panel (shown in picture). The color is deep impact blue and it has...
Hello all, my track day season is starting soon and this will be my first time running in the Ecoboost Mustang. I know others have gotten these out on track but don't see much on here about oil weight for these motors.
Anyone have any input for a good weight to handle the heat? I have run...
