Can't wait for these things to be built. Darkhorse Premium and a Premium GT Coupe. Big shoutout to my friend Philip Weikert of Weikert Ford in Lake Wales, FL for always taking excellent care of us.

About thatā¦.Crack that ECU!
Mustang chief engineer Ed Krenz told Ford Authority that as a result of the switch to FNV, the S650-generation Mustang will be "much more difficult" to tune. According to Krenz, the entire system is encrypted to protect user data, and if the system suspects someone is trying to modify its code, it can shut a component or the whole vehicle down entirely. So, you could make some nice hardware upgrades to your engine, but you won't be able to tune it to run at its best.
You're missing the point. The point is "cracking the ECU". It will never happen. Ford gives access whom it wants to...Roush, Whipple...that's not "cracking the ECU". You get it now? I'm not good at drawing pics...so...Ford spokesman says company line.
JFC, whipple, roush , and livernois already have access.
What are you trying to proveā¦ Johnny garage dyno canātā¦ ok fine.
Which is all a good thing. Sh*t tuners like Bama have been plagueing the V8 for a decade and the Ecoboom moniker exists because of tuners like MAPerformanceYou're missing the point.

BTW GM is doing the same thing with the C8, gives access to whom they want to...however, that happens. The days of native tuning are gone with the S650.
Right, who wants choices, right? No, one wants choices.Which is all a good thing. Sh*t tuners like Bama have been plagueing the V8 for a decade and the Ecoboom moniker exists because of tuners like MAPerformance
The issue is not really 500HP vs. 1000HP. The issue is Ford removing the choices of the consumers. With what purpose?you donāt really need choicesā¦ theyāre all copying each others work for the most part.
and if you need to build a car 1000 plus and up, put a Stand alone on it.
Shxt the Vaughn gittin 2024 is making 1200HP already with a motec
Whipple has access and the ability to tune the 24's. They have a 3.0L kit installed and in testing now. It will most likely be a bit before other tuning companies have the ability to tune the 24's but I'm sure in time we'll see some options.Crack that ECU!
