  1. Who did your e85 tune?

    I haven’t personally seen a great track record with AED cars as far as good experiences working or interacting with him goes.From what I know all the major tuners still work with Cali cars… maybe with the exception of PBD but I wasn’t planning on going with them either. I may end up having to...
  2. Who did your e85 tune?

    Looking to hear a few anecdotes on who tuned your gen3 track mustang for e85. I've always went with lund for my tunes, but I've read a few experiences where it upset the trackability of the car since the throttle felt "on off"I'd like to get a tune that's track friendly, but also squeezes the...
  3. MMD Front Chin, GTC200 spoiler, APR splitter?? Downforce equation.

    Hey track stang S550 friends...To preface this, this is my first venture into a "track build" on a mustang platform... I've been doing my best to absorb info on how to keep the car balanced and maximize its viability on stock tune/stock power.I recently added an MMD chin spoiler on a rear...
  4. Anyone running a boosted mustang on road courses? IE Streets of Willow?

    This is why I’ve chosen to try this out with the centri setup. It’s got the same intercooler setup allowing water/meth to be simple and no damage to the impellers like PD folks worry about.I’ve spoken to enough folks to give me the green light for madness to begin. I’m starting off with...

  6. Anyone running a boosted mustang on road courses? IE Streets of Willow?

    I’ve ran pure meth before and likely wouldn’t do it again. I’ll have to check on what the show concluded because I’ve seen folks run just water for temps, but not a fan of that due to corrosion… water/meth is generally known to be the ideal option to combat the low flash point of methanol and...
  7. Anyone running a boosted mustang on road courses? IE Streets of Willow?

    Seems like the consensus for boost juice is a possible 40 degree drop in IAT. I usually don’t understand the “what if you run out” argument against running liquid products like octane booster, boost juice, methanol, or nitrous. Just keep the res full and have extra, it’s not tough. Sure some...
  8. Anyone running a boosted mustang on road courses? IE Streets of Willow?

    I wonder how greatly boost juice (50/50 water meth) would affect this math.I spoke to regularassmustang as suggested above… he was pretty reassuring that it’s doable and centri is the way to go. I’m convinced I’m going to take the leap and give it a shot. Worst case I keep the mustang as a...
  9. Anyone running a boosted mustang on road courses? IE Streets of Willow?

    huge thank you for the recommendation, I shot Matt a message.That procharger looks extra tight in his new edge's engine bay so maybe he can give me some pointers on how to pull this off without putting a bottle and direct port nitrous into the car... I'm not opposed but then it would mean...
  10. Anyone running a boosted mustang on road courses? IE Streets of Willow?

    You touched on exactly why I am leaning centri... I'm not looking to further upset the car more than boost already does and I feel like Centri can accomplish that if and only if you can get the IATs in check.I'll try talking to the two mentioned above as they're in my neck of the woods and...
  11. Anyone running a boosted mustang on road courses? IE Streets of Willow?

    This is a fair point against Roots style setups and was the main reason I never took my modded shelby to the road course. It struggled to stay at healthy temps street driving so I knew it would suck horribly at the track.This is why I want to see if anyone has been able to do this on a centri...
  12. Anyone running a boosted mustang on road courses? IE Streets of Willow?

    On the track I’d be looking to minimize heat and run the least amount of boost possible. This would be achieved by running an e85 tune for the largest available pulley on the centri blower of choice reducing heat produced from the head unit by spinning the unit less. I’d then run water misters...
  13. Anyone running a boosted mustang on road courses? IE Streets of Willow?

    Yessir there really isn’t a budget for this, I’m going with a coyote for the low entry cost and can dedicate whatever amount of money and r&d it’ll take to find a working solution. I’ve driven a fbo na e85 coyote and I know that off the track it’ll feel painfully slow to me. I’m hoping someone...
  14. Anyone running a boosted mustang on road courses? IE Streets of Willow?

    not sure why I glanced over this option. NA at the track, liquid boost for when the NA power isn’t fun. This may be the middle ground I’m looking for.Id think being able to cool the boost in the ways I mentioned would help but you make a valid point it will add very awkward weight to the front...
  15. Anyone running a boosted mustang on road courses? IE Streets of Willow?

    Centri blowers use an intercooler almost identical with a turbo setup, however there isn’t a hot side. For that reason they can benefit from boost cooling via a water mister on the intercooler itself and water meth injection directly into the charge pipe going into the TB/intake manifold. I’ve...
