Handheld tuner.
I would think a handheld tuner would be nice to go with those bolt on's..
and probably lower it.
and probably lower it.
Haven't been to SAR in almost a year, I'll prob be going down to it this fall. Rear tires on my car are 315/35/17...as for your next mod I would install some lowering springs if the car is still stock ride height.
Sorry i do have a sct tuner #3015....however it doesnt seem to give me anymore power...i forgot to mention that the older guy (68) said he had "cams" put in the car shortly after he bought it brand new....and i do know the pcm was reflashed as there is a "ford authorized modification" sticker under the hood..He said this was done at the ford dealer....it has a dealer number on the sticker but i have hit nothing but dead ends trying to find out what was EXACTLY done to the car....it obviously looks stock from the outside.....the old man cant tell me any specifics ont he "cams" he said where put in there,,its killing me not knowing..so i have just kinda given up on that...i do know the pcm was flashed because the numbers that are on the ford authorized mod sticker come back to a different pcm or pcm reflash...so im just assuming the internals are stock....my injectors on the other hand are confusing me..they are dark green/brownish color???? anyone know what these are? the 24s? anyway sorry i didnt mention the sct i forgot it was in the garage...i think im gonna take it to the track and see how it runs diff installed and uninstalled...i didnt notice any difference on the seat of the pants dyno.. any suggestions? I guess im gonna get me some lowering springs.
Sorry, I dont have any input, but on another note. How do you like the tri ax? Mine seems "tight" alsmot difficult to know which gear or even if its in gear. Is this typical of tri ax? I loved the MGW in my Cobra, but now I am wondering if it is worth it replacing this tri ax in my Mach.

I dont really like it( not smooth at all to me)....it just came in the car when i bought...picking up an MGW with orange handle tomorrow...from all i have read its supposed to be much nicer and smoother, etc.
Side note.....injectors are 24lb ev6...glad i know that now.....those damn colors can be confusing.

I'd do some subframe connectors then get rid of the 4x4 look.
Good job of ditching the triax. What a horrible shifter. Can't find 3rd gear like the Pro 5.0 can and its so notchy.

I love my Tri-Ax :shrug: I have never missed 3rd and I really don't think it is that notchy at all.
I just replaced my tri-ax with an mgw a couple weeks ago. The mgw in my opinion is much better.
I'd do lowering springs or a mid-pipe (preferably mac prochamber). :beer:

save for blower lol
Wonder what kind of cams the old guy/previous owner installed in the engine (if any)?
The FR500 "high lift" cam kit was somewhat popular almost a decade ago; maybe he went with that kit from Ford Racing and had the dealer install it...(?)
Guess your next choice for mod(s) all depend on what you want out of the car. Have you already done any "driver mods" at all btw?
FWIW, never had an issue with my Tri-Ax. YMMV

if you want more power, go for the bassani x-pipe, have it on my car and it's great. i think you should get some suspension to match that power though, like subframes and springs, and maybe get a proper tune put on that sct so you can get more power out of it
Educate me on the "driver mods"?????
And i honestly think this car is already lowered just looking at it....damn i dont think id want it any lower....ill post some pics up this evening when i get home from work..
Anyone know of a GOOD reputable shop in or around the Austin,San Antonio area that does the SCT deal, i would really like to get some number before i go buck wild on this thing.?
as far as the mid pipe , i have been talkin to a guy about a UPR O/r x pipe he has...$45 bucks...said it got some small dents but mothing major...is that one worth pickin up?

Start buying parts for the eaton swap. Easy to do, your car will be fast, and it will drive like it's bone stock.
If you can shell out a $$... get the boost, If not then a subframe C is a must along with sticky tires.
