Need some advice on SCT for SHO

[Rodsmith]

I'm very new to this, my friend sold his 05 F-350 he had an SCTX4 that he's selling to me, it's unmarried.
I have a 2010 Taurus SHO stock besides KN intake.

All/any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!


Thanks in advance Rod.

check out http://www.unleashedtuning.com/  Torrie does a great job with the SCT tunes for the SHOs

Excellent advice!

Torrie tuned both of my SHO's.

The $199 fee includes data log revisions which I highly suggest you take advantage of.

Results in sig.

My advice?

Lower your expectations, especially on top end power.

Buy a 3bar sensor and get plugs gapped at .030-- one step colder plugs if you are going to push these things.

@FoMo, those 0-60 from some phone app or something?

No, its an excel calculator derived from my timeslips. I dont have access because my laptop is being repaired bit I've posted it on the forum a couple of times. I will try to find it for you.

So that is a very interesting calculator.  Unfortunately, I would put it up there with the cell phone apps (sorta not really accurate).  For example, I used my recent 1/8 mile runs logged from my VBOX (http://www.vboxmotorsport.com/index.php/us/) Sport and put the 60 ft / 330 ft / 1/8 mile results in and I received a 0-60 in 4.51 with 0-60 in 235 ft with 1/8 mile speed of 80 mph.

Actual results were - 4.921 in 247 ft and 1/8 mile speed of 82 mph.

So it is close, but not 100% accurate, measurements seem to faster with 0-60 and slower with the 1/8 mile speed.
