Re: Tuning Problems.
The stock maf is only 80 mm...You would benefit from a 90 mm MAF. Also, I'd richen it up, just a little but that's me

I wanted to use a 90mm lightning MAF, but the tuner said that I wouldn't need it with this tune and it would require them creating a whole new tune for the car. At this point I am hesitant to ask the the tuner to do anything else as it is next to impossible to get him on the phone and when I do he do he doesn't offer up any real solutions. He merely hints that I might need a spark booster. To me that is utterly rediculous, since I happen to know someone running way more boost on the stock ignition with no problems. Also, I refuse to throw another 250 dollars down the drain on his hunch. Actually my MAF is 75mm. They didn't swith to the 80mm until sometime in 2002 I believe. I have thought about trying a later model 80mm MAF, but I'm tired of throwing money at the dyno hoping something will work. |

Re: Tuning Problems.
I believe stock MAF's from 96 up was 80mm.
You need more timing. Who is doing the tuning? What kind of software? SCT?

NO need for a boost-a-spark at this point. I could have swore that an 02+ Mustang had an 85 mm MAF and everything before was 80. I still think you need a Lightning MAF. AUTO or 5-SPEED???

Re: Tuning Problems.
Look at his graph though. He needs more fuel. That's to close to the edge in my opinion
