Ecoboost 0-60

[Cardude99]

I have one - it arrived on Wednesday after bouncing around in the Fed Ex system for way too long. I'm going to get it installed sometime this summer, if things settle down for a while. I'm going to try to get it dyno'd with the original IC just to see if the benefits of the new one can be quantified.

Right on, great color choice too, exact same one I got. Love the sleeper look. Keep in mind as it gets hotter you may not notice the improvement as much as you will in the fall, winter and spring. Nonetheless there is still a definitive improvement, but only so much can be done to cool the car when ambient temps are 90°+

Yeah, my goal is really to make the car as consistent as possible, so the IC is an effort in preventing any loss of performance due to heat soak, etc.

If you do multiple dyno rBack to back you will see it. However, a giant fan in front blowing on the car is not the same as driving.

Drive the car hard and then stop and feel the intercooler by hand. On the ATM the passenger side of the intercooler is HOT, the driver side is cool to touch.

95-102 outside today and car did very well, consistent. FP cal and ATM intercooler.

Tucson is a dramatic experience. Half the time you’re going uphill, the other half you’re flying downhill.

I tried it for the first time today. I did try to launch it I slipped a little and I forgot I was paddle shifting and redlined it. It was messy but I still got 4.8 I feel like if I could launch better and let the car shift itself I could do better.

Details please, Year, Transmission, Rear Gears, Performance Pack or not?

Details please, Year, Transmission, Rear Gears, Performance Pack or not?

2017 automatic .Yes pp. Rear gears I dont honestly know. Was in sport mode.

Also pic of 2nd try in track mode with car shifting itself.

Always a diet of 93 octane from day one.

Realistically, half a second isn’t THAT big a deal, but it indicates that I’m either leaving power on the table somewhere or significantly heavier than other similar cars. Could also be an error in track apps... I need to see if I can QC those results somehow.

As for the car, it’s easily the nicest car I’ve ever had, and it’s a treat to drive every day. I have toy cars that are also fun, but nowhere the all around performer this car is.

Plugs..?

Plugs..?

Up until a couple weeks ago the plugs were stock. I have since installed the NGK 6510's @ 0.028, and have only tested it once - 6.2, but traction was an issue.

Idk. My old 16 Ecoboost A6 base was pulling 5.0-5.2 all day. Bridgestone potenza s0-4's, FP tune, Mishi intercooler, Eibach lowering springs, lighter wheels, some other stuff i cant remember. Im still a huge fan of the FP tune for the Eco, its a must.

Any Mods? What tires? Have you run the 1/4 mile with it at a dragstrip?

All my mods are listed on my profile. The tires on the rear are toyo r888r 285/35/19
They are much better than the p zeros. Ive never had my car to a track to run 1/4 mile.
