Hard-core CEG'er
well guys you probably saw my dyno sheet. i want to tweak a few things before i get going on a tuning program.
I want this thing to be the highest HP N/A contour around, which in reality, who cares, but its a fun goal to aim toward, before going way of boost.
I like what its doing right now, but what kind of HARDWARE changes can i do to the car to better it? this is the current setup, in detail:
05 Ford taurus Long block.
Stock taurus cams
Stock Taurus Upper intake manifold (bought brand new)
Taurus Lower intake manifold
Taurus 04 fuel rail modified
Nautilus fuel rail mod
Old style PCV system (between the heads) 3/4" tube to stock location 05 pipe.
AC deleted. Stock pulleys used for everything else.
Stock 60MM throttle body from an 03 taurus Half shafted
Lightning airbox with 90MM maf housing (center bar style aluminum housing with stock SVT sensor installed)
Stock lightning filter (flat, paper element)
Weapon R headers
Weapon R y pipe
3 bolt flex pipe (factory ford)
3 bolt Test pipe 2.5" trubendz aluminized
Trubendz 2.5" catback magnaflow muffler no resonator.
MSD dis-4 ignition, NGK TR6 plugs, Ford racing 9mm wires.
so...... thats all i have far as the engine mods go. what can i do yet? things i can think of are:
Underdrive pulleys
Dual mode damper
Plastic 90mm maf housing and sensor (will require tune)
Modified throttle body and remote IAC?
Better Y pipe (without the 180' bend)
anything else come to mind?
