So, I wonder if there are any gains over stock on 87 or 89 gas... Does the Focus RS require 93 in stock form? It is awesome to know that in a pinch, you can run regular.Learned a few things from Ford Performance today. Some is just a confirmation and elaboration of what others have already been told.
- Posted performance numbers are to the flywheel
- OK to run 87 octane
- Drive cycle = 3 50-75 MPH pulls in 3rd or 4th gear @ 50% throttle.
This is what he sent me, he got this from the engineer.
Just wanted to pass some info on to you guys about this cal.Hopefully this helps others that have gotten the tune to get the most out of it as quickly as possible.
When I did this cal I decided to give the spark octane modifier range of authority to learn down to 87 pump gas so the owner could run whatever fuel he wanted. Of course he will only get the gains advertised if he runs premium fuel. Our calibrations in the past had no range of authority on this modifier and always gave you the maximum spark advance for premium fuel.
So…if someone flashes in our cal and doesn’t allow the modifier to learn premium his spark will be retarded anywhere from 2-7 degrees from what it should be for premium fuel…hence his numbers will be lower.
To learn the fuel octane I’m told you can Perform three 50-75 moderate accels (50% pedal) in 3rd or 4th gear.
I am going to have the website modified to remove the statement that premium is required and add a disclaimer that the gains will not be optimized until fuel octane is learned.
