2011-2014 Mustang GT 80mm TB How-to

[X0AYHAM0X]

Haha why would you need one if your current one fits after the dremeling!? ;)

Haha in all seriousness the modification will just be me adding the cutout into the part to begin with rather then a redesign.

Yeah just kidding...I'm out of UAE until Saturday so I'll do it once I'm back and I'll try to provide a precise measurement for the new one

Thanks! Looking forward to receiving them.

Sorry about that! Yea all 2015 and up spacers will require some light dremel work to one corner to sit properly. My TB is actually a 11-14 TB according to the part number which means the eBay listing was incorrect.

I'm waiting to hear back exactly how much of the corner needs removal so I can modify the file and re-upload to shapways.

No worries at least it's a simple fix. I took mine off and matched it like X0AYHAM0X did and yeah same thing lol.

I just sanded that corner, and now it sits flesh with the TB. I'm recoating it right now while I'm at work.

If all is well I'll post the finish result tonight :clap2:

So no dice guys, still surging and going limp. I'm going to see about getting the aluminum pipe cut to have it fit I there properly. I even flashed my previous tune and had the same result. :frusty: I put the bbk back on right now and car works fine.

Odd.. Likely something wrong with the TB or tune. MPT might not have nailed down the tune yet.

Are you using an 11-14 or 15-17?

15

15

I would get MPT to send you another revision of the tune.

I'm just hoping this TB isn't defective....waiting on MPT's response.

Does the car go into limp mode or otherwise act weird if you just rev the engine and are not in gear? If the TB was defective I would expect the engine to not act right even when reving.

When I Rev it it would start surging as if it's about to stall out and then the wrench would appear. Even in gear

You sure you cut all the fins?

 

[ktodd1989]

Yes definitely. I'll see if I can get a picture

MPT just emailed me asking me if I tried my tune as there's "another guy" having issues lol

They probably got over confident when I told them that my tune worked.... Not knowing that my TB was actually a 2014 TB...... :headbonk:
