Pass before that dead hooked and went 1.51 60' but the mph was lower, 10.51@132. I may have short shifted 2-3 which is where I fell off a little in the 1/8th

2.9 whipple gen 4
3" pulley ~ 23 psi
Lethal 1300hp return, id1300 # injectors, 3000MAF, c16
Bone stock trans mcleod rxt with me shifting like I stole it

How hard are you launching out of the hole on the stock trans?? And what rear suspension/tire you got? 9's would be awesome to see!

I have the 2 step set at 2300 which seems to be the perfect rpms, maybe could go a tad higher depending on track prep.
I have a solid 9" with Viking double adjustable shocks, upr solid uppers and lowers, stock springs and 26x10.5x15 slicks

Nice! I still have the IRS in my car but am curious to see how it will hook with my hoosier 27x10.5x15 tires.

I had a couple things about the tune I wrote bugging me so I went back and started over. It seems to be doing better now. It had a flat spot before when I free revved it. That flat spot is now gone. Once I fix the leak in the gas tank I should be able to drive it again.

My guess would be the injector break point. I tried to cheat and use the value file for the ID1000's. But they're just different enough to cause issues. I had to enter the values for the ID1050X's manually. But it seems to be running better now.

I really can't wait for the new MS3 Pro to be released.

I'm interested to see what the reviews will be like with the MS3. I won't be going to it from my currect Haltech but I had the MS2 PNP on my 94 Cobra single turbo build. I did't get much time to spend with that ECU as I sold it shortly after I was finished building it to buy my current 04. But the time that I did mess with it seemed like it was a good layout in the software and easy to understand.

That's good to hear. I had plans on going to stand alone in the future anyway. But I wanted to keep the stock dash. So this checks all the boxes for me.

The Haltech Elite Setup is a little more expensive than the MS3 will be I'm sure but that is what I am running in my car with the stock dash. As that too was one of the things I wanted to retain. I wanted to keep the car looking very street car so I didn't want a race dash.


Here is a link to their 99-04 mustang specific page: Ford Mustang GT/Cobra (99-04) Archives - Haltech - Engine Management Systems


I went with the Elite 2500. It doesn't replace the factory PCM. It runs in parallel with it. So all the factory PCM control anymore is the gauge. The Elite takes over the rest of the engine control functions.

Just some food for thought for you if keeping the stock dash is your main driving factor when choosing a standalone.

Got some much needed highway cruising now that the clutch is broke in. Some cool weather up here in the Midwest.

Dropped the tank to fix the leak I had. Part of the fuel hat gasket had dropped under the rim. Hopefully I've got it fixed now. While I had the tank down again I went ahead and replaced the grommet for one of the vapor valves. I could wiggle the valve in the grommet. I'm guessing that was the source of my occasional slow evap leak code. And then I washed it.

Also the cold start was much better today. Let it prime and it fired right up.

Thank you for posting this. I'm going one of these routes over the winter and I know haltech makes a good product, just didn't know they already had something completely compatible for our cars.
