Hi Kyle,
Thanks for the reply and clarification. Did you add an additional boost level today?
I noticed that you now have the following maps;
Economy
Low boost
Low/Mid boost
High/Mid boost
High boost
Very nice and very flexible! :headbang:
Thanks again!

Boost setting vs Octane?
I've been playing with your dyno database (VERY nice!) for the EB and am curious if the low boost or economy setting would be appropriate to use with 87 octane gas? My wife will drive this to work frequently and I'd like to find a setting that works well on standard gas...
Sorry, the laws of physics don't let engines operate that way. Every time you touch the accelerator on any car, you increase air flow which requires more fuel to maintain the correct air/fuel ratio. Based on all of the dyno graphs from all the tuners I've seen show the turbo being bumped much...
In the 70's I was doing custom engine building professionally for the street, both hot rod and stock rebuilds, which obviously has different requirements than a drag/race car. One of the basics of increased performance is getting air in and air out. The more air that goes in requires more fuel...
I like Cobb's approach a lot. If the car is going to be a daily driver, having multiple options is a very good thing. I plan on using the car as a weekend cruiser and possibly take a vacation or two in it since the trunk is big enough to handle multiple suitcases and the economy should be in the...
Thanks Ian! I appreciate the clarification. I'm most interested in the low end and midrange torque for town drive and cruising on the highway. That big of increase should make the car feel very quick! The car will never end up on the track and I gave up street racing quite a few years ago.

New poster and old hot rodder here. Unlike most of the folks following the new Mustang, I was around for the original 64 1/2 edition. I'm retired now and have been following the evolution of the new Mustang. I like the looks a lot but haven't driven one yet. I will soon and then wait to buy one...
