Can someone point me to a good place to learn about tuning the obd I Ford MAF/SD systems? Mainly looking to find out if you can socket the ECU then run a tuning software on it. Any info will be appreciated. Thanks!
Have you looked at the mega squirt site? Not sure if there's anything there for your situation..but there's a ton of info on there.
http://www.tweecer.com/ i had that on my fox body. worked really well and the support was great. im sure the development has come a long way sence then.
ah Thanks! Thats the one i was looking for but i couldnt remember the name. I kept googling the wrong name. Lol
Tweecer will also work on my tbird. Oh my my! I hope you can do multiple cars with it if so its getting a pair of PI heads asap!
You can do multiple cars with it, but it can only be used on on car at a time. What some guys do is get the tune where they want it and then get a chip burned with that tune on it so they can put the Tweecer in a different car. I've got one of these in my Mav and it works well...but the learning curve is a bit steep. Ford didn't design the factory system so that it is friendly for tuners to mess with. I haven't done much tuning since I put the 351 in last year and I need to hit the web site again so I can remember what I need to do...
Thanks for the Info Mark! Im not that new to tuning I already run Chrome and turboedit on some honda engines. Tweecer looks much easier than those programs. Plus the multicar feature is just the icing on the cake.
Another option http://www.moates.net/quarterhorse-for-fords-p-199.html?cPath=63 I've used and have my old megasquirt in a box waiting for the maverick (just need to swap top ends off of my mustang) it is a big learning curve and I would not recomend anyone learning the way I did on a turbo engine. Just makes things harder, and more expensive swapping short blocks. LOL I have also seen tweecer in action on a friends car and the learning curve does not look as steep. It looks like a very nice piece any PLENTY of support to which is VERY helpful. Megasquirt can be a little harder to get support for, just cause the forums are not that active IMO. Looking on youtube, this quarterhorse seems like a lot less learning curve than both. Theres also AEM, but huge price tag and huge learning curve.
Wow they have Moates for ford? I never knew that. I know alot of Honda guys running their Demon with eCtune.
