stock 2012 5.0 manual

Trashing the warranty just to gain 10hp in my daily driver = not a great idea.

The numbers are high because its in STD not SAE correction. SAE in this type of weather is 2-4% lower than STD.

Have you tuned one of these yet Sam?

Buncha lightweights worrying about the warranty. You pays your monies and you takes your chances. Either you can afford to play, or you can't!

And you'd be the first to cry with the bill from a broken tranny.

And you'd be the first to cry with the bill from a broken tranny.

Already have the MT82 whine and it doesn't bother me a bit. T56 is locked and loaded for when this POS dies. And why would I cry? I chose to do the mods. Like I said, you can either afford to play or you can't. No biggie.

Besides, if it does break, I always have this to drive while we're fixing it -

You've said that twice now, are you insinuating I don't want to void my warranty because I'm broke? lol

I'm okay with being slow! I'm not a whole lot slower than you.

You're a broke pussy because you're not modding your daily!

Nothing like that at all, I just wonder why some people worry about the warranty and some don't. I bought mine to have fun with, and daily drive, and not worry about the warranty. If it breaks, and Ford doesn't cover it, it will come out of my pocket. She's going to True Street for the next round of mods, I'm shooting for low to mid 11's on motor. And hoping it doesn't break!

Now don't go putting words in mouth.....

Afr gauges are notoriously unaccurate. There was a good article written by Bosch engineers that explained... I'll have to dig it up.

Reading Plugs and listening by ear are the only way to go.

If its the stock factory tune, don't even think about sweating it.

will you come listen to some engines for my customers and tune them up for me?

Can I come watch?

[VaderTT]

Damn, I was going to say.

In before Majorownage give bad advice!

[majorownage]

I guess Ford's stock tune is all sorts of wrong then...

Is that really what you want to go with?

Why not use the wideband that's built into the car from the factory?

[Pooter]

stock gt's do 390?

In all fairness his is a '12 with a brand new '13 motor in it





And there is a reason he's not tuning it, from the other thread he had about #8 giving up all while BONE STOCK. Really isnt a bad idea, just look, he got a free engine out of it, and had he had it tuned they would have blamed the tune. 390 is plenty to play with to not need 15-20 more hp to keep the warranty for a bit longer. Were doing the same thing with my wife's '13 GT.
