There's a first time for everything. Hate to say it but you might wanna swap the intake back, flash it back to stock, and take it in for the following TSB:

I had the same problem before.

why are you using a fuel system cleaner on a new car? I wouldn't put anything in my tank except for gas.

ORIGINAL: AmericanMuscle4.6GT

driving the car more today, fantastic. 2 issues.



a couple times 2nd gear lagged. i floored it and it felt like traction control kicked in then turned off. t/c was OFF. info? fuel TSB?


also, in the higher RPM's i'll get a bunch of pinging when i'm really flogging it. bad gas maybe? i did use a fuel system cleaner this tank.

93 octane gas used.

For the money, I would go with the JLT and tuner. I think LMPerformance has them for $554 plus 5% off. I don't think you can extra HP for that price.

I couldnt find anything on there website but then again i am never too good with searching for stuff online...

ford used it when i took my car in for service.


another thing i noticed: rev matching is magically easy now. before, i was iffy at best, now, im a pro. SEAMLESS DOWNSHIFTS. its a miracle.

Had the same feeling on my first test drive after the JLT2 + Brenspeed tunes. Scared the crap outa myself, this thing has waaay more power than I'll use on a daily basis, but it sure is nice to have.

I would give it a couple of days on the 93 tune before taking it in for some TSB. Mine had a few hiccups after my CAI/tune, but they worked themselves out now. I've had my JLT+brenspeed tune for atleast 4 months and I beat on it like a stepchild and it takes it like a real trooper.

You should let it warm up a little longer when running the 93 tune, otherwise starting off slow in 1st can give you whiplash.

one thing: when i was reflashing, a bunch of erros came up on the little display on the dash: OT something something fuel level low; check gas cap, check charging system, check traction control. any ideas on that?


It does this if you don't remove the fan and fuel pump fuses.

haha i hear u there bro.


one question: when attaching the rubber elbow to the TB, did you have to kind of really push it on, and tighten the clamp as you were holding it?


maybe the elbow is too far onto the black tube?

Also, does anyone know if Brenspeed accounts for the 18" wheels on the stang? I was reading something about needing to input the actual revolutions per mile, but didn't know if Brenspeed actually did that or not beforehand. If it needs to be inputted, does anyone know the revolutions per mile on the 18" fan blade wheels with stock goodrich rubber?
+1 I need to get the onfo on that as well.

Also, What would most everyone on here say was the better way to go? The C&L AIR INTAKE WITH SCT X-CAL2 or the JLT 2 INTAKE W/ XCAL2
06Stang...
Dave from Brenspeed said there is no issue, as long as it's the factory 18" wheels.
