Badass! Are you running an E85 tune with that I assume?
It's a flex tune as unfortunately they took real e85 away from AZ and all we have is flex fuel which is basically e54.

Gotcha. Probably easier to start when it gets cold anyways. Saw a lot of posts about no-start issues with full E85 when it gets cold out.

Ya still get some additional timing but nothing like straight e85. I did find cold starts on ff are less brutal than on 91 with LTH and Corsa extremes so that was a plus ss well.

Sounds good. I'm going to focus on dropping rotating weight and add the Ford Power Pack when it comes out. Would like 425-430whp and about 60-70lbs off the wheels and brakes. Should be quite fun. :)

If you have the pp1 wheels it will be easy to drop 10lbs or more per corner with some light weight wheels depending on your likes. Those things are 33+lbs by themselves.

I'd say probably early November, depending when they submitted for CARB approval. I'm sure they want it out before the holiday season.

It be nice before then, probably will be on display there regardless and hopefully some other new goodies for the S550s

Probably going to reveal whatever they are there, i'm hoping for something a bit different than just the Bullitt/15-17' set up but probably going to be the same with a more aggressive tune

I'd probably go for the manifold, throttle body tune setup from the Bullitt if some aftermarket dyno's have a nice comparison to stock (without bloated numbers, uncorrected BS, etc).

The Bullitt air box is properly designed for the car from the start, not just a GT350 part with a piece of foam shoved in to kinda make it fit.

Website is down again for Ford Performance. Cross your fingers they are adding the goods for the 18+'s. :)

I seriously hope so. SEMA is getting close and I just had the FRP Track Suspension installed. I’m dying for a tune!
