Thanks Bony!

I will dedicate my first "burn-out" to you!!! :banana
 
If you guys want to have your GT tuned after the install there is a place in North Richland Hills ( Xtreme Horsepower ), that has the "new" Dyno equipment. I am going to schedule some time over there after the work is done.

KCM is a great shop and their Dyno is great for measuring HP. However in my opinion it is not great piece of equipment for tuning our GTs. The equipment doesn't account for the car’s weight and drag co-efficient at higher speeds. This lends itself to A/F mixture problems in real world applications.

Bob Norwood is going to tune mine afterwards. He has a bit of a reputation for making things go fast.

I am also going to take my car over there this week to get a good baseline.
 
Fubar make sure Bob ties it down correctly..don't let him go by the A-Arms...on most of these Tunes..the Heffner and Accufab there is no adjustment to the system..its burn and go..and I agree KCM doesn't have the software to do a custom program...I'm just not interested in risking getting out of that safe zone.

I agree, I don't want an aggressive tune. I am just nervous about changing the exhaust, pulley and changing to K&N filters, but only tuning for the pulley.

I am going to be looking at the current configuration and try to stay pretty close to that. I know it currently runs rich as a French desert so I may get a little more realistic with the A/F, but nothing aggressive.

I have seen a baseline run on the GT and the A/F is bizarre. I just can’t believe that Ford is putting that much fuel in these things. I want to see what mine is doing. If it really is that rich then I will keep it on the rich side after the mods.

I will try to post the results from the base run tomorrow.
 
They seem to be just like my viper..rich as pigs...I am probably going to go over to the shop in the next week or so and change my oil..I will do a new run with the exhaust and see what we get with just that tune. I am also going to call Heffner today and see what can be incorporated into their tune since that looks like the pulley I will be going with.

Update

OK guys we are firming things up for this.

It looks like we are go for the 10th 11th 13th and 14th..thats Saturday, Sun, Mon and part of Tuesday.

Now we have so far:
427Aggie
Ric Middlekauff
Spirit
Fubar
Mardyn
rocksman
dbgt

With the week moved back I think ByeEnzo is in now but AJ you need to call Rich about getting a quote and I think there are a few others that haven't called...Texas did moving it a week help you out or can you still not do it?

Also if ANYONE has free tickets on Southwest or another airline let me know if you are willing to let them go to the guys for their flight otherwise the cost gets split.

PM sent to GTx. I was out of town last weekend.
 
Mods for Dallas Owners

I may want to have the safety wiring done, and a transaxle cooler installed. Do I need to purchase all the parts first and have them available?

Thanks,

Brad
 
Brad give the GT guys a call tomorrow. Its preferable to have them get the parts so we make sure they aren't waiting on anything.
