Concensus on the '10's increase of 15 Crank HP over the '05-'09's - Page 4

X-type midpipe w/ hi-flow cats and axle back. Power obtained via the hi-flow catted x I presume.

without messing with the headers, its hard to believe that the exhaust played any role in adding much power...maybe 3hp?...maybe?

FWIW, Brenspeed told me that the EMC in the 09 Mustang is different than the 05 – 08. The reason I asked them is that my 09 feels a lot stronger than my 07 did with the same 93 octane config. So the 10 may have the 09 type ECM.

Thanks, myGT500. I had just taken a large swig of coffee when your post above opened. I think I need a new keyboard.

I also like that it "Incrase Fuel Economy by up to 33%"

Higher octane gas isn't supposed to help the max HP out, but increase midrange torque by up to 10ft*lbs. I've noticed a difference in performance on my Bullitt using different octane. The gas mileage didn't seem to make a difference, though. One other difference they were supposed to carry over from the Bullitt was a larger damper to help with high rpm harmonics.

The '08 Bullitt's PCM is capable of adjusting somewhat to different octanes but still doesn't match the additional RWHP that a custom tune can deliver. It's apparent that the stock tune of the '10 has been updated similiar to that of the FRPP tune offered to improve the stock tune for the 05-09's.

I was hoping that someone would have thought that was funny......

Surprised no one said that already as it has been used in the not so distant past

I thought it was funny J, I didn't say anything because I don't wanna be the only goof around here.

So thanks to Nuke for helping out!
