Default Little fun run....

Well me and my friend have ran before and we were dead nutz side by side the whole race. Well I was messing around with my ecu's and put my old Speed Density ecu back in to see how it ran since I did some of my mods and it flat out ran like **** So I went to put the maf ecu back in and found out the connector to my maf was laying on my header and burnt up.... So I had to ride around for a week with the car spitting and sputtering, surging and cutting off till I got to the junk yard to get another connector. Well the day after this race I got my connector but by then it was too late haha.

The camera is in the SN95

On the 2nd run if you listen right at 1:47 you can barely hear a pop, well needless to say the SN95 is out of commission right now b/c of no tune, cooler weather and running more boost than it has been.... PI swap is in the works in the few weeks and a tune to go with it haha.


This was back at the beginning of October but I had fun doing it though lol

LOL thanks man, but yea it was surging real bad, half the time the car would cut off and it just ran like Sh*!# until WOT and even then it still didn't feel good.... I was running my old speed density ecu b/c my MAF connecter got melted on my header but it's fixed now runs great and now my buddies car in that video is blown up lol

Explorer intake mani, 70mm tb, 75mm maf, anderson power pipe, udp's, e-fan, 1.7 cobra Roller Rockers, BBK long tubes, dr. gas off road x-pipe, mac flowpath mufflers, 4 cylinder T-5, aluminum ds, Ford racing 31 spline axles, auburn pro posi, 3.73 gears, stock heads and stock cam with stock suspension with the front and rear sway bars removed.

I ran SD on this car for about a week and it hated it really bad, and I'm assuming it's b/c of the 1.7 rockers but one thing I didn't understand was it ran pig rich and during part throttle it felt like it was being held back and start popping and backfiring then it would just go fine...... Put me through a loop but once I hooked the MAF back up it did perfectly fine...
