I thought about 3.55s then found cars with the Premium package have 3.31s so it wouldn't really be worth the expense. I thought about alternative fuels and meth. I don't want to get into it that deep. At this point the car is fun to drive and I enjoy doing that. I enjoy it enough that I' ve been going through 2-3 tanks of gas each week. My "daily driver" that doesn't get used much anymore (a Sonata Hybrid) would only need to be filled up every 2 weeks.
We're pretty much done with the NX2 tune and have been making a few tweaks to the transmission. I finally had time to log a 1/4 mile run on the street last night. it looks like I was doing 108-109 at the end. I was kind of expecting to be in the 112-113 range with a 93 tune. What do you think? I told my tuner that I want the car to be reliable. That's more important than it setting a track record so there is problem some power left on the table.
i think that is an ok number, ecoboost engines are very octane dependent engines so you are probably runing a conservative tune that will let you enjoy for a very long time without issues, the soft low end can be fixed by changing the torque converter but your fuel economy might suffer a bit.
What kind of fuel are you using?
100 octane fuel + 100% meth
I think that's where the main difference is. I'm just running a 93 tune. I talked to my tuner about it. He said he could put more in it but likes keeping a decent safety window. He also pointed out that I get a slight knock count when air temps start to approach 110 degrees. That got me thinking about running meth so I've been doing some research.
If you are pushing past 400whp o a stock engine you should have that tune for racing only, and have a daily drive tune were you wot need water/meth inj, you can also go to port injection and just e85 all the time.
It doesnt matter, the O2 will correct your fueling even if it is pure meth, you just need to ask your tuner to let the knock sensor add some more timing
I would've gone with E85 but unfortunately, there aren't any E85 stations nearby. You can add low fluid and low flow sensors to trigger a failsafe. I have mine set up to cut the boost to the WGA spring rate when the failsafe activates.
