This last week was awesome, I was able to dyno 600HP and everything looked PERFECT. We figured we'd go out and do some street tuning just to verify. As soon as we get the car off the dyno and started driving around we were hitting lean cut. After a couple of hours of trying to dial in the...
First Ecoboost to 600WHP!
Did some more pulls tonight, we opened the cutout and picked up 37HP and 50TQ at the wheels.
We have some more custom tuning to do but I'm very pleased with the results
Took the car down and we started trying to tune it myself (with a friend's help), we ran into an issue with not knowing how to change to 3 bar map sensor but we'll figure that out tomorrow. I used Torrie's tune I had in the car previously and adjusted fueling in the aux injector controller. The...
I have a used Livernois MyCal tuner that will work on any of their Ecoboost vehicles, or any vehicle the MyCal tunes.
I am asking for $250 shipped, you will have to pay them $250 to unlock but this will still save you $100 off new price.
Just completed my install of the Megan coilovers for 2009 to 2012 SHO/Flex/Taurus
Car rides much better than the H&R springs I had installed previously.
Two SHO guys on my forum installed them as well, one called me tonight and told me he had solved his wheel hop with these installed.
I love them!
This is a Sound and Performance boost activated cutout seen here:

When over 6psi the cutout opens up - here's my video on it working on my stock downpipes with a bad H pipe install and on 91 octane tune at around...
I need some better air for my Flex so I can post an actual 11 second time not a "corrected" time. I'm willing to drive up to 8 hours from Phoenix to get the time out of the car, wife wouldn't mind a weekend road trip.
If you guys know of a good 1/4 mile track that is open either Friday night or...
Went out to SIR in Tucson for some runs, 5400' DA.
First pass 12.4@109 - upgraded turbos, aux fuel system and 50/50 E85/91 octane. Second pass turned on the nitrous and ran 12.3@113.
Better air puts me in the 11's!
Ford Flex at the drags - E85 and upgraded turbos 12.4@109 - YouTube
I attempt to launch with my new tune that has 21+ degrees of timing with the boost leak fixed, it's pretty funny. I ripped open the rubber hose from the rear turbo to the plastic pipe within 4 hours of installing my new turbos, I replaced it with a silicone hose today no more leak and no more...
I'm continuing to work on my Flex and as we've been going through tune revisions and I have more power my first gear boost level has become an issue. You can't boost per gear in the ecoboost and I can no longer give any boost load up in first to take off and 70% of the time even with going from...
I finished the install of the auxiliary fuel system this week. I've been chasing wiring gremlins but finally got it working correctly yesterday.
Details on the fuel system:
Walbro 255 pump, Magnafuel boost referenced FPR feeding 6x40lb injectors and a 1 gallon fuel cell.
50/50 E85/E10 91 octane...
Thought I'd drop in an share some ecoboost love.
What am I going to do with this truck, as of today I'm looking at the following mods:
1. Lowering 3/5 (why? because a lifted 4x4 is not necessarily condusive to fast 1/4 mile times) the 4x4 is for traction not for off road.
2. Pro Comp Series...

I sent them a factory rod and piston to replicate a few weeks back, they've finished engineering. The pistons will be the original bore size but .030 over will be available to order if need be!
Pricing is still being worked on but I will put up list prices as soon as I...
I'm working on some mods that will be or are available to the public now/soon.

Video of my Flex with a 75 shot, 100 octane tune and intake/exhaust vs 2012 Camaro SS
I asked the guy to race and he laughed but you can't hear it in the video.
Yes I know a Camaro can be modified to whoop my ass but I'm running 12's on street tires with a rolling box...
