Do you plan on releasing a version with a tune in the future? Similar to the intake and tune combos for the 05-10s?

Where's the dyno charts? If you know it gains 15-20 hp, you've dynoed it. Post the charts please.

We sure did, it was dyno tested at So Cal Tuning in anaheim, it made the exact #'s we claimed, we will be posting the dyno chart and some timeslips from our track testing a few weeks ago very soon, The kit on the flow bench out flowed the factory unit by 18%. The track results showed 2mph gain and almost 2 tenths with no other changes. We have been slammed so these things have been on the back burner while we catch up and try to keep everyone happy, our appologies for the delay!

.2 and 2 mph is impressive.
Same day before and after install runs, or runs on a different day?
Hopefully they were done same day for best comparo purposes.

My appologies I was told .2 ET but the timeslips below show a .1 increase but apparently the 60 ft suffered from the extra power causing wheelspin!, here is the info that our advertising dept added to our site.


The timeslips below (car # 768) was a back to back test at identical engine and outside temperatures, with the MMR intake installed the car suffered from increased wheelspin (due to the power increase) and this can be seen in the 60 ft time with the intake installed. The car quickly however caught up with the stock pass (left timeslip) and passed it in all other areas and made 2 more MPH over the stock test. Tests were completed on a 100% stock automatic vehicle with 300 miles. Both passes were made within just over 1 hour of eachother. This vehicle is the same vehicle that was dyno tested a few weeks earlier, we also tested a 5 speed model with nearly identical results. We will try to get the dyno posted up next, the format we were sent was not compatible with our website host so hopefully our advertising dept will have that figured out soon.

Thanks for the correction and update.
FYI however, have your marketing department change a couple things. It's not a 5 speed, but a 6 speed.
And the CAI would not affect 60 foot times and wheelspin off the line.
From a dead stop doesn't matter if you have the stock intake on, a CAI on, or no intake at all, there is no airflow on a dead stopped car that will affect power and cause more wheelspin in that scenario. Even to the 60 foot mark, the car is going relatively slow at that point that any additional air that's coming in from the CAI would be very minimal and not add much power, and certainly not enough to make the difference between traction and spinning the tires.

The more plausible and reasonable explanation is simple, the car was just launched a bit harder on the pass with the CAI on causing a bit more wheelspin.
That does not take away anything from the performance increase of the CAI, if anything it speaks more highly of it.
As any drag racer (myself included) knows, slower 60 foot times, more often than not result in slower ET's.
The fact you got a slower 60 foot time with the CAI, yet still got a faster ET, shows the additional power that was made from your CAI.

I did notice however, you guys ran at the slow track formerly known as California Dragway.
Terrible track, runs uphill by 4 feet over the 1/4 mile, often has a bit of headwinds, rarely has DA's below 1000 feet, and more often than not they are 1500-3000 ft DA's. So mid 13's and 105-108 mph is pretty good there.

Wow I feel like an idiot.....I didn't even open up this thread after all the rumors that simple bolt-ons would have little impact because Ford brought the 5.0 with nothing left on the table.

Looks like that train of thought is incorrect!

Way to go MMR!

Our understanding from those who were involved is that the computer/ecu was never reset which we found to be critical, when we dyno tested our 5 speed the first time we saw a horrible rough graph and TQ loss, after reseting the ECU the HP #s were smooth and a great increase in both HP and torque, we also were told that the dyno testing was performed with the hood open allowing the intake to take in warm engine air.

Long story short this is a great indication of what happens when the ECU is not reset and explains the rough curve that we both found when conducting a similar test without reseting the computer (disconnecting the battery).

It is also important to note that the HP did pick up on both pulls, even without the ECU reset, HP can only increase if airflow is increased!

On a side note we have also found that the emission equipment is somewhat different on this customers car, compared to our MMR test vehicle, it turns out Ford made a California emissions ECU / controls and added an extra breather tube on our (CA) version, the customers version was lacking this particular nipple on the stock intake which we will now include a cap for which may or may not be present on all vehicles, our concern now however is that the ECU calibration on the non california cars may also differ from those in other states! We are urgently working to get a non-california emissions vehicle to our facility to make sure that our test results hold true with the other calibrations, if they do not we will offer a flash to correct this to insure our customers see the gains we have claimed and found in our test vehicles.
