Ecobeasts that have NOT Boomed!

[N8dogg]

9500 on mine, had since Feb 2015. I drive it pretty hard sometimes and got it up to about 140mph! No problems, except for an exhaust leak from my new downpipe. not the pipes fault though, just need a new seal.

I bought my car used, had 8800 miles on it, it now has 11,000. All ive done with the car is raced it, I have always been logging for the tuner or racing it on the track. 2000 hard miles, I must have logged close to 100 times and been down the dragstrip 100 times with it. Its not the fastest EB out there but its raced a lot. Started out with the Tune + 93 tune and ran low 13s, now I have Lund Racing Tune and it runs high 11s. These cars are a lot of fun.

Every single time you change your DP, even if it's back to stock, you need a new donut gasket with it or it will leak almost every time. Found that out the hard way

Was the only change the tune? Or were there other mods added to gain 2 seconds? That's moving!

The extra mods were adding methonol injection and race fuel. There were no other mods except changing from Tune + to Lund Racing. I actually ran a lot of 12.0s on 93 octane with Methonol and Lund tuning the car. I wanted to go faster and Jon Lund was atonement about me using race fuel. I dont think I need to use 100% race fuel, but as he says, its a great fail safe.

Mods are UPR catch can with PCV delete, Wagner EVO2 intercooler, Red Line Oil, Brisk Spark Plugs, Turbosmart actuator, Catted downpipe with Solo Cat back exhaust, Methonol injection, Race Fuel, 18" x 9 1/2" TSW wheels with Nitto NTO5R drag radials and Lund Racing Tune. No other modifications.

High 11s is moving, and that's a lot of passes. Sounds like a good time.

Does anyone know if their is a difference between the base manual transmission and performance package? Maybe a different clutch? I was driving a friends PP GT and the clutch in the GT felt much more responsive:shrug:

The clutch is the same in both, but the PP has a higher gear ratio 3:73 vs 3:15

The base manual is 3.31 gears not 3.15s that's the auto

Also are we talking GTs? Or GT and ebm?

Probably just Fords shoddy QC, The GT I test drove had Identical clutch feel to my base Eco, but the PP Eco I drove seemed to have a much stiffer pedal and inconsistent bite point. :shrug:

The base auto has 3.15s, the premium auto has 3.31s or if you have PP, it has 3.55s or 3.73 for the manual GT PP.
