Thats an epic effort. I smiled as soon as I saw the thread title and knew it would be your car.

Its one thing to make power from a turbo 5.0L, but must be another thing all together to make it work at the track...you've made it look easy.

Congrats!!

9.96 seconds from 0-228km/h is very impressive in itself. I hope the drivers seat is well secured to the floor.

hey I just noticed in you sig that you are using a quarterhorse , are you using the std ECU and if so who did the definiton file for you? I'm using a quarterhorse to tune mine but I'm using an A9M mustang ECU at the moment as my original ECU died on me.

Yeah, I am still using the original ECU. The catch code is Y3EC, and is part of the NVXO7 strategy.

Definition file was put together by 5.0whiteaughia on these forums (Matt) using TunerPro. I converted it from TunerPro def to a BinaryEditor def. Most of the idle stuff is there, as are the spark and fuel tables, MAF transfer, and WOT Spark vs RPM function. The injector slopes are wrong, and there is not alot there to manage the adaptive stuff (id love to turn off adaptive at idle) but there is more than enouguh for me to tune at the moment. I'll need to get at least injector slopes sorted before I can tune for the blower (s-trim). There is no datalogging either which would be nice.

I was using a twEECer RT before, but the Quarterhorse is much nicer
