    High flow cats

    i used a 3" metal matrix race series, it is a universal cat and flows better than anything else on the market...make sure you get what will work for you though, i am supercharged and fully tuned, so i needed something that flowed really well...you probably don't need that much...

    i want to put a few mods for now in to my explorer

    trust me, it is not the same as the mustang...i bought the ford racing version of the powerdyne. it is the same exact kit and much cheaper...

    i want to put a few mods for now in to my explorer

    yes, but before i did all of this, it was bone stock, and it would still pull after shifting into fourth... you will have to get an aftermarket chip/flasher. i have the Superchips Xcalibrator2...it works flawlessly. this will also make difference in the power of the vehicle...

    i want to put a few mods for now in to my explorer

    the other thing you need to take into account, is that you don't have the same load on the dyno as you do on the street. you are not dealing with the weight of the vehicle and you are not dealing with the drag coefficient either, just food for thought as to why it might make a difference on the...

    i want to put a few mods for now in to my explorer

    on my X, my tuner found something in the programming where if you are trying to do a run and have the O/D off, it will try to shift anyways, so it seems like you are just hitting a wall. almost like a fuel cut or speed limiter is the feeling. he had to call SCT to ask them about it, but they...

    also beau, most tuners will tell you should gain anywhere between 30-80HP with the boost cooler with a good tune. the variation in the HP figure is based on your mods and motor, and how conservative your tuner is with the tune. the one problem with the boost cooler that you have to be...

    Went to the Dyno today

    i have not even run the boost cooler yet, i want to get all of the bugs worked out of the system without it first. i am going to have two different tunes, one with it and one without it. i will let you know what kind of difference it makes, but it won't make a difference by itself. if you...

    Went to the Dyno today

    i have updated my cardomain page, the link is above, so you can see pics of the current setup... but to respond to your post, the problem i am running into right now is i just spent a major chunk of change on a new tranny. that was not in the "engine building" budget. :p so i am going...

    more power

    bamachips.com is a sponsor of this site and doug has them i know, but any Superchips Tuner will have them. if you can find someone local where you can actually dyno tune your setup, then i would go that route, because the guy tuning will be able to tune to your specific setup since you are...

    Went to the Dyno today

    i will take some pics tonight and put them up on my cardomain page. i have been thinking about the bottom end already, i am getting scared that it is going to go, knowing my luck right now. but i am going to run it until it does...i might start looking around for something or checking into...

    more power

    what size exhaust piping do you have? when you open up the exhaust and intake like you have and don't have something in place to compensate for the extra flow, you will lose low-end torque, which is where the truck spends most of its life...i would suggest going with a SCT Xcalibrator2...

    Mods for the '99 EB 5.0 V8

    check out my signature, basically every bolt-on you can do without touching the engine...the explorer has a well put together motor though, as stated by section, get a custom cam. you can port the gt40p's also, though i would be careful about going crazy with these, otherwise you will lose alot...

    Went to the Dyno today

    nope, just the correct one i need, i will see 9-10 with this one, and i am going to add and extra cooler soon, just wanted to make sure that everything was running right first. i am also going to switch it over to amsoil as well. those two things should make a pretty big difference. i did get...
