Yes...power delivery is about the same , it does hesitate similar to the first tune. The fuel/air ratio is all over the place too. The exhaust makes weird noises now and the rpm' seem to stay in the upper range longer when you push the clutch in to shift. Nothing feels right except the idle.
Roush is sending me new NGK plugs. I have the motorcraft plugs that came with the phase 2 but they changed over to the NGK's a couple of months ago. This may be part or all of the problem. Fingers crossed, I will update asap.
My god, how in the world would it pass all there durability testing with plugs that fail in the field????? They stopped offering the kit for 2 months to narrow it down to spark plugs? Man oh man, that's like when they told the other customer the detonation was the exhaust.

I really hope that is the case, we've included NGK's and all we use, but I'm shocked that this, now after 1 year is the fix.

Drove mine again today
I have found lower gears are pretty much useless
The car pulls nice at wot and is everything I can handle. I'm happy with mine so far
I will put it on a dyno but I feel it's making 600-630 at the wheel

Still no hiccups or dtc codes

NGK plugs arrived gapped at .044 in. Instructions say ensure its gapped at .9mm or .035 in but was told they were pre gapped by roush. WTF? Can anyone with phase 2 pull a plug and advise what theirs is? :shrug: Thanks
