    Alkycontrol

    Nitrous is a combustion enhancer and not in anyway a detonation suppressor, like an increase an octane will give you (weather you do it with better fuels or a meth injection. When squirting NOS into a blower car, the power gain you see isn't because you lowered the inlet temp, its because you...

    EDGE, or SCT

    I was hoping some of the persons who purchased a tune from me might chime in and help you decide but since this post got no responses in a a day or two now I guess I'll brag it up. What you need to watch out for with most of the other tunes or tuners is that they don't always address many...

    SCT Livewire

    My SCT guy got back to me today. I'm still not totally up on them technically, but they'll be available some time 1st quarter 2007 and will retail for about $200 more then a Xcal-II. Thanks

    Hand flasher wet ? Lidio?

    I've never had to help any one in a situation like this with one of these. But I've found with other electronics that don't have moving parts in them like the Xcal (no moving parts) Typically if you let it dry for a little while and maybe if you can get like a blow tip connected to a compressor...

    Cam swap

    Don't put to much effort into a cam swap in a 32V 4.6L. Its starting to just now surface in the 32V community that for the most part they're a very expensive upgrade that's only worth about 15-20 HP and in some cases worse. Along with drive-ability problems and loss in low end TQ (especially...

    Trilogy 69 is missing in third gear

    The meth kits have worked out real well in the supercharged Mustangs ranging from supercharged 5.0's to both 2V and 4V -- 4.6L's in the last year or so. The cars that benefit the most from it have been non inter-cooled Centrifugal blower applications which for us has been predominately Vortech...

    most bang for buck? tuneup

    The best bang for the buck on a Trilogy equipped MM is to do the 3.2" pulley and maybe a 4.10 at the same time. These two are a pretty noticeable upgrade for that car especially if you do them together. If you only want to do one depending on funds, go for the gear. Their are no drawbacks in...

    F.A.S.T Fuel Injection System

    The stock EEC doesn't have the ability to keep the A/F where you might want it at WOT in a closed loop fashion. This does not play into my decision to go with or with out a FAST in any way. If the parts are picked correctly with any of these applications and the tune is done correctly, the...

    F.A.S.T Fuel Injection System

    Hey guys I know I'm a little late on this one and I've not really posted much here these days or any where for that matter with the way my time's been lately. Any way these days I hate to say this but I was a very big FAST fan till some of the major advancements happened with being able to tune...

    It's in the tune

    From what I've seen the aftermarket air boxes on MM's are only worth about 7-10 RWHP. From watching the A/F's when we first started testing these I felt that messing with the A/F at WOT and mid range wasn't worth any thing. They continues to stay with an A/F of about 13:1 which works perfect on...

    Thanks Alternative Automotive

    Hey Guys As always it was a pleasure taking care of the MM crowd that comes here for the Woodward festivities and the rest that goes with it in town. I'm sorry I missed the dinner on Wednesday. Just fell to far behind on a couple of things that day. Don't worry though, I'm sure another...

    Newbie Data Logging - Specific Parameter Questions

    The only Ford's I've seen lately with actual oil temp sensors are Variable cam timing motors like the current 3-valve V-8 engines. Most others, the oil temp is either inferred or assumed or not monitored by the PCM. Thanks

    Newbie Data Logging - Specific Parameter Questions

    All AOD-E's, 4R70W's and most other electronic Ford automatics have trans oil temp sensors in them. Thanks

    Newbie Data Logging - Specific Parameter Questions

    Some of the parameters that come up don't always work or are simply not available on some cars. I don't usually support or work with customers on the data logging capabilities of the SCT xcal because we just aren't in a position to to do that. But the MM's don't have variable cam. The knock...

    2006 Woodward Dream Cruise Poll-Dyno Day At Alternative Auto

    Dyno-Day Hey guys Looking forward to hosting another dyno day for the the Marauder guys. Weather you strap it down and just make the two basic test pulls, get into some custom tuning or just hang out... I'm sure it'll be a good time. The way we usually do it is if all you want to do is strap...

    Ordinarily most cold air kits or air-box/filter replacement kits do not need retuning as long as the factory Mass-air housing is reused, which is typically the case with MM's and most Ford's prior to 2004. On most Ford's now though like the new F-150's and Mustangs, plus many other models...
