Yeah so just a tune....

[TRBO VNM]

Wow, just got the V5 aggressive tune from Torrie at Unleashed and I can't believe the difference from his other V5 and even from stock. The car is bone stock aside from just the tune....it is amazing.

Mike, forgot to tell you last night. You gotta come back down and drive it. simply amazing.

 

[KingBlack]

is this with sct or AP?

 

[TRBO VNM]

SCT. I think that is all Torrie uses. I hit it in 1-3 today and amazing at how different the car feels. Seriously, it feels like I put a larger turbo on it. I need to give a few friends a ride so they don't think I am lying.

Mike....come on down, seriously. It is damn impressive. I guess ford really learned their lesson back from the late 90's when they were rating the mustangs because now cars are so underrated it isn't funny.

 

[FISHTAIL]

LOL, alright, I'll try to make it back down there. But that's just going to make me want to buy a tune probably and I have enough project expenses...lol.

Is the difference really *that* big? How much boost is it running now?

 

[Smacked_in_ATL]

I'll find out soon enough, I got an Access Port on the way from FSWerks.

Mike, you know me. Yeah, huge difference. Feels like a new turbo. I couldn't believe it. I think it is pushing close to 25

You will feel the difference. Even having a standard aftermarket tune on these cars should show a difference. No clue how it will compare to Torrie's and really we won't know unless there are apple to apple dyno runs or people driving each others cars.

Nah bro, my stock ST with tune will be faster than yours:banana:oke:

Reading threads like this make me want to run out and buy an ST.

 

[NEMES1S]

Wow! I can't wait to get my sct tuner. Is this with the fmic as well?

Exactly what I was thinking. Might have to get one soon...

LOL, dyno racing baby.

Go test drive one. Watch the torq steer though. That freaked me out at first. I hadn't driven a front wheel drive car with any kind of power in a long time. They are a blast though.

Wow! I can't wait to get my sct tuner. Is this with the fmic as well?

Nope. Only mod is the tune right now.

See above.

It's a hell of a balanced little dd. Good mileage, if you drive it conservatively, and hella fun if you want a more spirited driving experience.

As long as people have realistic expectations about a car like this, and aren't looking for V8 level performance, this car can be very satisfying to own and drive. That's my experience so far; YMMV.

In case anyone hasn't seen this 3-4 times by now, it should put a smile on your face:

[svtfocus2cobra]

There's an article in the new C&D about the new Cobb ST. A lot of good things to say but for the power I was a little disappointed in the numbers. 300hp/380ft lbs and it could only pull off a 14.2 @101, 0-60 was 5.5. It sounds like there is a ton of wheelspin which is to be expected. They said the torque steer is even worse though lol.

 

[SCOTT99COBRA]

His all. I haven't been on for quite a while. I recently picked up a new ST and am considering just a tune at this point. There are so many, that it is tough to determine which one is best. I have parts on order for the motor mount TSB and will wait until that is done to consider any tune more seriously. From what I have heard so far, I am leaning towards Steeda.

 

[SVT Rob]

I'll probably go with the FSWERKS AP for mine, when I eventually get around to it. I do want to get the RMM TSB taken care of first.
