After 18,000 miles with a tune as my only power mod I reverted back to the stock tune. I thought I would share my seat-of-the-pants "reverse tuning review".
1st, the stock tune is no slouch, it is more than capable of moving the bulk of the mustang off the line and down the road in short order...
I've done a couple easy, inexpensive things to make the trunk a little easier to live with...Costco storage container($14.99). Lays flat when not being used. I put a couple pieces of Velcro on the bottom to keep it from sliding around. And the touchless trunk closer (2nd photo, upper left)...
My priorities are: Freeing up bottlenecked horsepower, passing state(MD)emissions, no drone, keeping cost south of 1k. I would love to have a complete system from one company but just can't afford it at this time. Any recommendations?
2015's are getting older, no longer the new kids on the block. Ford will make no more, our numbers are decreasing every day. Guys are racking up thousands of miles, enjoying them, modding them, selling them, and sadly wrecking them. As 2015's begin to age like fine wine, we are the first, the...
I really want to hear from those who are currently using water/meth, or have used it in the past, as a daily driver. I'm concerned about the on-going cost of buying meth and the day to day PITA factor(if there is one) of using a water/meth system.
Every time I get near the grill on my car I smell a strong oily-gassy funk. Very similar to the hooge that comes out of my catch can. There are NO leaks anywhere...anybody else stink?
Finally changed out plugs at 16.5k and did the TB spacer at the same time. Both are easy, plug and play mods. I've been averaging 25 mpg since the car was tuned about a year ago. I will update MPG and seat-of-the-pants horsepower gains at 500 and 1000 miles.
I realize there is only so much Ford can do to update the S550 from year to year, but will there be more than scoops, stripes and a few more HP in the future?
What do you think about your S550 after the new car smell is gone? Mine; it's been a dependable daily driver. No mechanical problems or rattles and just one recall item. I have one rock chip in windshield, front end paint is hammered with nicks and chips(Ford paint quality could be better). I...
I spotted a convertible with three fairly large guys in it today. The guy in the back obviously didn't have his seat belt on. It looked like he was sitting on a stool, his head looked like it easily cleared the top of the windshield. Just very awkward looking.
Fairly easy to do. The biggest challenge for me was where to put the micro toggle switch. I wanted it to be discrete yet convenient, I couldn't find an ideal spot. Ended up putting it just above the tilt lever on the steering column.
There are two wires on the switch under the clutch pedal...
