Hey Dennis, tuning question....

[JerseyVics]

Hey quick question: any dyne tunes coming up in the NYC area?

I'm wondering because I got a reply from FordChip.com and they told they're never again willing/planning to come to this area (bad experiences) so I need alternatives.


I've run my car twice since I added an ADTR metal intake tube instead of the rubber piece that comes stock on the crown vics and also installed a Lightning heat exchanger that is slightly larger than the one AED provided.


What I'm experiencing now is an excessive amount of low end torque. If I floor it off the dead stop at the track I will spin the wheels till I'm in 2nd gear. If I torque it up and floor it I'm spinning till 3rd gear. My entire bumper is black of rubber bits.


Whats causing this crap? Why is it that today out of 13 passes I made only 6 of them were in the high 14's when the last time during similar weather conditions and with same tire pressure/fuel level I had 11 out of 13 passes in low 14's.


Please help.

thanks,
--Russ:confused:

well what is your 60' times and are you running a stall converter

[JerseyVics]

my 60ft times:

1) 2.750
2) 2.411
3) 2.244 14.711 @ 94.56mph w/1.043 r/t pro tree 91f tire: 30psi
4) 2.294 14.741 @ 94.51mph w/.939 r/t pro tree 91f tire: 30psi
5) 2.690
6) 2.775
7) 2.337
8) 2.454
9) 2.306 14.805 @ 93.96mph w/1.206 r/t pro tree 85f tire: 28psi
10) 2.424
11) 2.329 14.814 @ 94.30mph w/.953 r/t pro tree 82f tire: 40psi
12) 2.272 14.740 @ 94.57mph w/.998 r/t pro tree 81f tire: 40psi
13) 2.221 14.699 @ 95.01mph w/1.038 r/t pro tree 79f tire: 44psi

my current set up is: AED kit with ADTR metal intake tube that gets super hot at all times, Marauder air box and Lightning Heat exchanger from a 2001 Lightning. I have recently replaced the transmission from a 2000 stock Police Interceptor with 20k miles on it. my original one burned out Overdrive from excessive power.


I would really like a dyno tune and before I go to the track again I would like to install a limited slip differential, one wheel burnouts are no way to go.

Your 60' times are very bad looks to me like you need slicks 1.8 is where you want to be
