I got this for my Maverick, but ended up using the non-VTA GFB DV+ adapter off of my old 2019 Ranger as the Maverick has the BPV/BOV sitting right by the firewall in front of the driver and although this thing sounds great, it became a little much that close. I paid over $250. I want $150...

That change (changing the 2-3, 3-4, and 4-5 shift timing to be the same as the other gears) is much better with adaptive turned off, but the 3-4 and the 4-5 shifts are still jerky at times. I honestly think it is the nature of this transmission and the adaptive learning is used to smooth things...

I have another tune file to try with those first few shifts back in line with the others (we had tweaked them to try to fix the common laggy cold shift issue with 10R80s), so we will see how that goes with the adaptive turned off. I won't get around to loading it until late this weekend or Monday.

No matter what, turning adaptive off might be just the ticket for a racer.

Unleashed Tuning. Even Torrie admits he is not sure the changes he made turned adaptive off, but I can tell that it did. Unlike when you load a tune and the transmission has to relearn all over and it wildly inconsistent with shifts for a while, this was consistent right from the get-go and...

I have put about 100 or so miles on it so far and just got a chance to try this with a cold transmission and I do believe the weird slippy/laggy cold shifts on the first run thought the gears is programmed into the adaptive learning and/or the torque management is disabled/lessened when adaptive...

I had a chance to load this and drive a little and I have to say that eliminating the adaptive learning has made a very positive difference. Gear engagements are quick and on time and there is not any hunting. It is shifting as it is supposed to. Gonna drive it a few more days and report...

I hear all of you and agree. I honestly think the adaptive learning does more harm than good. I just got a revision he wants me to try. When I get a chance to load it I will drive it for a while and report back. He was as intrigued as we are.

So I found out recently that you can turn off the 10R80 adaptive learning with the Ford IDS tool. I asked my tuner if this could be done and he said he would make some calls and get back to me. He just did and sent me a revision to try with adaptive learning turned off. Has anyone done this...

It sounds like the Ranger is pretty much the same. I find that interesting considering the different intended use of each vehicle. I agree that the way the transmission is geared the RPM can get way too low in normal mode in higher gears. Thanks for the input. If they weren't so expensive, I...

Thanks!

Thanks! Great information. Where about does it shift in normal and sport in just average throttle application? Just wondering about shift points too. I have my WOT set at 6000 with my tunes as my truck only started to fall slowly off after 5500.

That's why I lock out gears. Lugging can lead to LSPI. In warmer weather I run an E50 tune, but in the winter I run 93 with Boostane when I can. Our E85 varies too much in the winter. I use Sport mode often, but it is pretty aggressive with RPM holding in the Ranger. Tow mode is a little...

I have a 2019 Ranger which of course has a very similar drivetrain as the Ecoboost Mustang (though our longblock has borrowed many parts from the Focus RS engine) and I often find myself locking out 9th and 10th and driving that way (we can lock gears out, not sure Mustangs can). I was just...

The Ranger does not have the big foam cover over the pump, just a little rubber one (thin) and over that there is a thick sheet metal "heat shield" bolted to the pump. I put Dynamat Extreme on that shield and it killed a ton of the sound. It is still there, because it travels through the...

Yea, I was surprised at the noise while driving at times. Idle, especially with the hood open was expected, but sometimes it sounds like valve train noise like an old mechanical cam small block. Not all the time, but occasionally. I wonder if the weird metal heat shield over the HPFP is the...

I'm familiar, but I hadn't had an EcoBoost. Just two Mazdaspeed 3s, and a few Skyactiv Mazdas. Much quieter. I was really surprised. I do love the power though! Of course my old Fox body with a solid roller has them all beat in noise. LoL.

Agreed.

Disclaimer... I have a 2019 Ranger. I'm new to the EcoBoost line of engines and honestly I'm not sure what to expect my truck has almost 13,000 miles on it now and I haven't really paid any attention to noises or anything like that and recently I've just been running with the AC on and the...

An alternative: https://corksport.com/2018-mazda-6-license-plate-bracket-relocation-kit.html It is for a Mazda, but the bumper bolt is the same and it has a wide horizontal bracket and the back plate is Lexan. Instructions: https://corksport.com/support/instructions/ATK-8-010-WEB.pdf
