engineermike replied to the thread Centrifugal Boost Question - Cats.Couple of things: With a centrif and the rising boost curve I would expect the “time at temp” would be lower. Also, with the rising...

Well, good news! The belt legitimately did it. Not sure if it being a new belt was keeping the belt shreds from occurring or what, but...

Update: The Russell GTO Flex Lines work like a charm and allow unrestricted access to the dip stick. They're a little longer than... -
engineermike replied to the thread Centrifugal Boost Question - Cats.I think dfso is actually what’s destroying cats. I’ve programmed mine to not enter dfso once the cats are over a certain temp. Mine...

@engineermike You know what. I took a look at this morning's log again. And I was wrong. If you look at the SECOND pull on that log...

Thanks for all the help! The logging bit helped a shit load, as I was going nuts not having access to it. The load correlation also...

engineermike replied to the thread VMP Odin (boost issue?).I hope the belt tightening fixes the issue for you. Well, that's between you and your tuner. I like to set mine up with borderline...

engineermike replied to the thread Ford Performance Tune for 2018+ GT.Yes, for sure. You can buy tuning software like hptuners and read your tune from your car. Then find a copy of the FP tune online...

engineermike replied to the thread VMP Odin (boost issue?).Couple of observations from the drag log just posted: - Yes, the load appears to be very slow to build in first gear. Throttle is wide...
-
engineermike replied to the thread VMP Odin (boost issue?).Ok, good we have a log now. The throttle is going WOT as soon as the pedal goes down at 3500 rpm, load at WOT is 1.5 to 1.7, timing is...

engineermike replied to the thread VMP Odin (boost issue?).I'm just saying that you're trying to diagnose a problem in a modern mustang without the single most useful and valuable tool. And it's...
-
engineermike replied to the thread VMP Odin (boost issue?).This is very basic but you can’t expect the forum to be able to really diagnose it without a log. It absolutely blows my mind that...
-
engineermike replied to the thread VMP Odin (boost issue?).It’s either….bypass valve, extreme belt slip, or the throttle isn’t opening. But without a log it’s just guessing.
-
engineermike replied to the thread CHT lowering tips?.The fan doesn’t come on fully until about 230 unless you have it tuned otherwise. Get programming software and set up the fan temps...

engineermike reacted to The Watchman's post in the thread Question for guys who actually have the the Roush Kit with Like.
Ladies & Gentlemen, I am posting a couple pics of my 22’ GT with Roush 2650 P2 kit installed. It is bittersweet because this summer...

engineermike replied to the thread Fuel pump failed, open active recall, dealer says Ford won't issue parts..By the recall description it really sounds like the issue they’re recalling is about the venturi nozzle not the electric pump itself...

Not saying cats are an issue if they are unclogged. I have cats on mine still, but a clogged cat can creat excessive back pressure...

engineermike replied to the thread VMP Odin (boost issue?).Before yall go dogging on the cats (sorry, I had to) see the attached dyno graph. Gray is no cats, dark blue is with cats. Shocked all...

engineermike replied to the thread VMP Odin (boost issue?).Sometimes fuel trim imbalance if one is bad. You may be able to borescope through the front o2 sensor holes. Or you can pretty easily...

engineermike reacted to SheepDog's post in the thread Boosted Mach 1 on E85; Forgot How Much E It Drinks! with Haha.
My DTE estimator says 170 miles on a full tank. Good thing there are stations with E85 all up and down the front range, and enough up in...

engineermike replied to the thread Disappointed with Whipple Stage 2.OP you can buy software like Pcmtec and the dongle (about $350 total) and remap the throttle pedal torque response to your personal...

engineermike replied to the thread VMP Odin (boost issue?).I just love how these companies convince people to buy expensive fancy-looking devices which have the sole purpose of preventing the...

Not really. It will be pretty close to peak as soon as you floor it even at low RPM. It will rise a little bit but that's about it. A...

engineermike replied to the thread Boosted Mach 1 on E85; Forgot How Much E It Drinks!.They put the software out there but the tuners and parts houses that be never really picked it up and ran with it. Pcmtec makes...

engineermike replied to the thread Boosted Mach 1 on E85; Forgot How Much E It Drinks!.Me neither, gladly. And both of my boosted coyotes are flex fuel with oem-logic variable boost by ethanol content. Works fantastically...

engineermike replied to the thread Boosted Mach 1 on E85; Forgot How Much E It Drinks!.Ok poor guy is uninformed. At the 5 minute mark he finally starts to get into his issue and demonstrates he clearly doesn’t understand...
-
engineermike replied to the thread Boosted Mach 1 on E85; Forgot How Much E It Drinks!.It’s highly likely, almost certain, that Lund is using hpt software to tune your car.
-
engineermike replied to the thread Boosted Mach 1 on E85; Forgot How Much E It Drinks!.That’s probably because they couldn’t figure out the fuel line volume issue. Hpt still hasn’t defined the parameters needed to fix...
-
engineermike replied to the thread Boosted Mach 1 on E85; Forgot How Much E It Drinks!.I guess they haven’t figured out how to set up boost limits that work with flex in the stock logic. Works amazing.
-
engineermike replied to the thread Boosted Mach 1 on E85; Forgot How Much E It Drinks!.Part of why flex fuel is awesome.

engineermike replied to the thread Disappointed with Whipple Stage 2.It would be better with an mvpi and hptuners vcmscanner. You can choose the channel list and view the log yourself or post here for...

You know the thread has gotten off track when we went from my engine blew what do I do, to engineermike posting graphs about the...

engineermike reacted to Hack's post in the thread Blew up my gen3 motor and don’t know where to go from here with Like.
Yes I agree based on that information that there is a small change in VE with the CMCVs open at low RPM. For all intents and purposes...
-
engineermike replied to the thread Blew up my gen3 motor and don’t know where to go from here.My point was that the IMRC are to increase turbulence, not VE. And being that they are basically just flaps that shut off most of the...

engineermike replied to the thread Blew up my gen3 motor and don’t know where to go from here.The CMCV aren't there to change VE and Ford's own SD data says as much, that there's almost no difference in VE at low rpm where they...

Got it wired and working. Not my best wiring work but I didn’t have a wire shrink sleeve that was big enough so I had to improvise. Pro...

engineermike replied to the thread Blew up my gen3 motor and don’t know where to go from here.Yes, VE changes with dynamic effects of rpm, cam position, coolant temp, charge temp, the difference between the two, map, exhaust map...

engineermike replied to the thread Blew up my gen3 motor and don’t know where to go from here.There are a lot of other factors that go into power rating "at the brochure". Also keep in mind that a VE improvement just means that...

engineermike replied to the thread Blew up my gen3 motor and don’t know where to go from here.GDi improves both knock resistance and volumetric efficiency. I could cite numerous technical articles, but the proof is in the stock...

engineermike replied to the thread ECM.Eh, Pcmtec does reflashes in 15-30 seconds. Many times I’ve pulled over into a parking lot to reflash on my way to or home from work.

What's more fragile about the gen 3?

engineermike replied to the thread Blew up my gen3 motor and don’t know where to go from here.If you poke through that tune, basically all they did is change the TB curve and MAF curve to match the hardware, added borderline...

engineermike replied to the thread Blew up my gen3 motor and don’t know where to go from here.Ford has the VVT timing at WOT pretty much nailed down, though I seem to have found a tiny bit of top end power by reducing the intake...

engineermike replied to the thread Blew up my gen3 motor and don’t know where to go from here.I think this is a good point. In my experience, many (possibly most) aftermarket tunes unnecessarily or inadvertently get rid of safety...
