What was the "final thought" on the 03's stall fix?

[MotoXracer21]

I havent been on the boards that much until recently, and wanted to know what was learned about the stall fix that ford came out with. How did it affect hp, and the a/f ratios, if at all? My car has been stalling more often recently, which i believe is due to the colder weather and the FIPK. Is it worth getting?

Thanks for the help....:beer:

Yes. No troubles. I'm noticing better drivability with the newest flash, too.

Better mileage under WOT. Although a tad bit of lost power up top (the tune makes up for it down low, however):thumbsup:

So more low end power, less top end power? Sounds good to me! I only do 160mph blasts on tuesdays and thursdays, so i guess I can live..:lol1:

does the factory speed governor allow it to hit 160?

Mine reads 155.something. It fluctuates. Now, if you haven't gone all out, it's a MUST.

Mine pulls so mean up top that when I hit the fuel cutoff, it's violent. I've found that the more you run her up in the range, the better it runs in that range. :thumbsup:

I wish I could find a place here in NORcal with enough room and space to get it up that high! Besides the freeway, littered with highway patrol...

Welcome to the American Autobahn:

At 10AM, you'll be the only bad boy on this road for 20 miles. No turns, straight in most places, and best of all, it's 4 lanes. :rockon:

Back on track. It's hard to get the stall when you're going 135. :-D

If the roads are clogged, yes. Maybe I need to explain. I live about 5 miles from the "parkway". I head out 2 miles north and it looks like this:
