i dont see why u couldnt get that tunes to work... personally, dunno how to tune it to get it to, but dont see why you couldnt...


i belive you could make it work, but it will take some tuning, and will prob have to run rich at idle, so i hope emissions arent important, lol.

SD is great if you can tune for every specific setup you run.
SD works by making assumptions on the VE (volumetric efficiency) of your motor.
If you change the VE from stock, your tune goes out the window. It really is that simple.

The only good way of keeping SD when making moderate to serious mods, is to custom tune.
If you don't, the car just won't run right.

i dont see why evo performane couldnt get it to work... but its gonna take some effort, and ur idle will suck... say bye bye to emissions... or look at other cams... trickflow stage 2 isnt the only one out there...

well the big reason is that a friend has it done to his car and im tryin to run a similar setup, he has the stock e7's ported and a knock off edy intake, and its in his sn95 95 gt. he is makin well over 310 wheel and iamtrying tobeat his setup with similar things. although he is having some major issues right now, the car will soon run fine, as his dad is a genious when it comes to ford motors.
