[QUOTE="SID297, post: 12716877, member: 8858"] I’d like to give a little update to this article. Yesterday morning (February 7, 2013) I got the Explorer out with the same mods that we ended with on this article; 93 Octane VMP Tune, K&N Intake, and Magnaflow Cat-Back. The only real difference was temperature. Our final tests in the main article were performed on June 28, 2012 in Myrtle Beach, SC at about 2:00pm. It was 93⁰ F at the time of our runs. As a refresher, here are our earlier runs: [b]Final runs made June 28, 2012 in 93⁰ F temperature air with VMP 93 Octane Performance Tune, K&N Intake, and Magnaflow Exhaust:[/b] Run 1 – 8.03 Run 2 – 8.04 Run 3 – 8.38 Yesterday I ran multiple runs in the same location at about 8:30am. It was a cool 45⁰ F. So with the same mods and nearly 50⁰ F cooler temps here are our results: [b]Cooler air makes a huge difference:[/b] Run 1 – 7.38 Run 2 – 7.30 Run 3 – 7.57 As you can see, if you take the two best times from each run we managed to cut off over 7ths of a second. That’s a [b]HUGE[/b] gain from nothing but different atmospheric conditions. Next week we will be starting work for a new series of articles on this Explorer that will feature parts and services from FRPP, Reische Perfromance, Tousley Ford, VMP Tuning, and another notable SVTP Vendor. It should be fun. -SID297:beer: [/QUOTE]
