I dont think the problem is noticing the hp difference, when in a race is where the numbers will show, now imagine paying for mods to get 10hp more and now being at stock 2021 hp numbers
Exactly.
Do you know if the ford racing tune will work with catted long tubes?
People only get FP tunes to keep the warranty, not really subject to add modifications after
I wasted my money on the level 1 tune for my 15GT because I later bought the CAI and Tuner from Steeda.
The only mod I want to do is kooks catted long tubes. Figure I need a tune of some kind to compensate for it but I don’t have any tuners near me that I trust and would feel much more comfortable with something from Ford if it would do the job. I don’t need any power increase I just want the sound and the car to run like stock and not throw codes
Give Steeda a call. They already have a Mach 1 Tune with tuner and they can probably modify for headers too
What is GPF?
Gas Particulate Filter.
This has to be mentioned a lot but there is a warranty impact on “power pack” FP tunes: you get a supplemental FP warranty up to 3/36. After that your 5/60 is still active but in theory Ford doesn’t have to pay for repairs related to using an aftermarket tune. Engine-wise the Mach I is like power pack 3 for the gen3, so (and I’m only guessing here) there will be no hardware only a tune freed from <91 octane considerations. FP delivers great, reliable OEM-like tunes and it may be more aggressive and more fun, but there is a warranty impact. If I had a M1 I’d probably do it depending on what they claim for +hp/tq
The most recent example I can think of for Ford is the 6.2L V8 currently found in the Super Duty. It was developed around 2005 for the Mustang, and originally called the "Hurricane" motor. Katrina hit before it was supposed to be introduced, and decision makers decided it should not be called that name. So it became the "Boss V8" but then gas prices soared after the hurricane. The project was shelved for years and basically written off. Then, in 2010, it became an option for the F-150 and the standard engine for the Super Duty. So in this case Ford didn't lose their shirt on development, but only because they decided to use it for another application.
Yeah, except Ford didn't design any of the Navistar engines. The 7.3L was a long-lived success; the 6.0L was a problem child for many customers, and the 6.4L was even worse in some ways. But after the 6.0L warranty fiascos, Ford was already working on the 6.7L engine and the 6.4L was just stop-gap.Brah really any of the navistar engines, especially the 6.4 lmfao. The 3 valves any of them basically didn’t last, a lot of money for alot of warranty work
People like you seem to enjoy creating prophecies you hope are self-fulfilling. Nothing is inevitable except death. There are many advantages to ICE vehicles you totally fail; some of those advantages will never be met by EVs. Overall range, thrilling engine sound, speed of refueling, portability of refueling, ability to adapt to a number of alternate fuels, ability to store fuel, etc.
Not to be rude, but "chassis centered" and "balanced" don't exactly apply to the nose heavy WRX you have...
