    Digital Tuning I'm Back! Do I want a Megasquirt?

    It’s still using sensors. It uses primarily the wide band and the SD tuning and its own internal MAP, but it still needs coolant and air temp sensors and runs the IAC. If your harness is toast, the Holley setup might be a better setup. A little more cost but comes with the harness for the...

    2000 GT: PI intake swap time

    Because everyone likes a parts spread… This weekends project: Ditch Dorman intake, install PI intake Spark plugs Valve cover gaskets. Picked up a used Pi intake strictly for the hardware. The Dorman intake discards all this so needed to source it elsewhere. Believe it or not buying an...

    Bad ECT sensor causing this problem or what???

    Ah…I defaulted to a fox car in my thinking and didn’t thinkSN95 with regards to fan control. Sure it’s not the tune? Is this a sudden change?

    Bad ECT sensor causing this problem or what???

    Is this an aftermarket ECU or a tuned stock ECU? I only ask because you say the fan came on when you started the car, but the stock ECU doesn't have the means to control a fan so what is controlling it then? Difficultly starting on hot days is a sign of being rich, and one of the causes of...

    Engine PI Intake replacement

    None. You can certainly go this route if you wanted. The boss is a little taller, but that shouldn't really cause any issues with coolant flow reaching the sensor. I believe you would need to drill/tap for 3/8" NPT

    Coolant sensor/sender difference

    On 96-98 2V engines, it's on the driver's side next to the t-stat housing. I've circled in red. on 99-04 2V engines, it's on the pass side. Circled in blue

    Engine PI Intake replacement

    The PI intake was discontinued last July. Machines that built it are gone. All the different versions are gone, so really you are just trying to find stock for a part number folks aren't aware they can order to get one. I believe that intake (3W7Z-9424-AE ) will work as it appears to be a PI...

    2000 GT: PI intake swap time

    Hasn't seen it yet. Other than a couple short drives, it's been in my garage. But everyone else who has seen it can't believe it's the same car. Once nice weather is here this will live in my driveway again. Apparently we have a wintry mix coming this weekend, so it's not quite spring...

    Bad ECT sensor causing this problem or what???

    The ECU will throw a code if the sensor values are outside of an expected range. It should throw a code if bad

    Progress Thread Back in a Fox 89GT

    Yes, high pressure shocks will have some affect on ride height vs low(no)-pressure shocks.

    Remote Tuners for MS

    I believe Chris at S&S engineering (the ATS brembos inserts) is a DIY dealer and does remote tuning. I am not 100% sure on that but I think he mentioned it once. https://www.ssengineeringllc.com/ Email at the bottom of main page

    Have you poked your head under the car? Given the mods on the car, it likely doesn’t have cats on it. That’s an assumption on my part but give the 03 cobra bumper and hood, I wouldn’t think a stock h-pipe would be on the car unless you are in Cali. but a 4.6 DOHC should start to haul the...

    T5 Identification Advice Needed

    Fuel Stock 1994 5.0 throttle body size

    The stock TB size for the 94-95 Mustang was 58mm. A popular mod for the 94-95 crowd was to do a Foxbody throttle body conversion. Much better selection of aftermarket throttle bodies available. The Explorer 65mm can also be made to work, although you'll want to pay attention to the TPS...

    T5 Identification Advice Needed

    Correct. A 275/40/17 tire should be around 25.7" in OD. You'll have to look up the brand specs to get a more accurate number as there is some variation between manufacturers.

    Electrical Car dosen't run without jumping the EEC IV test port

    1; Well we know something that ECU exchange doesn't know. For some reason someone hacked up the test plug and put 12V on the wire running to the MIL circuit. I'd say that might have done it and been the "collision". 2; the bad power supply comment is common from ECU exchange. I wouldn't...

    Mileage on the engine? Could be timing related.

    You don't have to retune to take it off. You can retune to take advantage of the facts it's now disabled. You could always just disable the vac regulator for now vs pulling all the plumbing off. Essentially that does the same thing and disables the system. It would help with process of...

    2000 GT: PI intake swap time

    So, the Eibach pro-kit and Bilsteins are a winner here IMHO. I had some concerns that the suspension might be a tad bit stiff but those fears were resolved. The car rides incredibly close to stock, but might be a tad rougher over broken roads. However in terms of ride quality it's actually...
