EPL, doing something a bit different than the norm and every car that ive been in that he has tuned has been silky smooth and made great power. not to mention i will have a cable i can flash back to 100% stock if needed for a dealer visit

it doesnt look any different, i set the coilovers to the recommended height which just happened to be the same height the h&r springs were at!

i do plan on lowering it a bit more once the summer comes 🙂

installed the pulley this past weekend, slight improvement in low end power but of course the factory ecu does a good job of keeping it all in check

the install was pretty easy and for $225 including the removal tool i would say its a no brainer if you dont plan on going with giac or apr (they charge the same amount just for the removal tool lol)

Most likely the same as all the other stage 2 tunes. I will be happy with 70whp gain on the mustang

Scheduling dyno day for next week as well as getting some logs that people on the forums are asking about

Received the ecu today, to be honest it was very ready to remove and then reinstall

Only have a couple miles on it so far, not fully adapted but it feels much more powerful in the midrange. I have had a chance to do a pull to redline yet.

Plan on doing a full write up with dyno sheets and logs in the upcoming weeks
