![]() ![]() I’ve owned 20 Mustangs now (including my 94 Cobra and my 2018 EB) the majority of my ownership was the Fox Body (79-93) - and I had the original Hypertech chip in my prior 1986 GT as well as 1992 GT. Hypertech is not new to the game and they are familiar with Ford’s PCM factory tunes and can (and have) offered varieties of safe aftermarket tunes for the Mustang platform for MANY years. Hypertech was also very well known on the largest Mustang website of the time period on (where I’m still a member today). in the 1986 Mustang, you would have already known that Hypertech was THE pioneer and first to bring the “tuning chip” to the Mustang platform. I was also going to reply that if anyone on this site was around during the original Mustang “5.0” movement, meaning, the introduction of the EFI 5.0 H.O. Glad you’re on the site and appreciate the very detailed responses from the Tuning Manager! I'm not against offering the option, but I'm not sure that's the right fix for a PCV issue. We didn't see that issue with the EcoBoost Mustang, so we didn't include the option in the ME2.0. On a related note, our MazdaSpeed 3 tunes do allow those vehicles to adjust the idle speed, but that was only to eliminate the resonance of the engine inside the vehicle. I'm sure you know this, but figured it was worth mentioning for anyone else who is curious. That should stop once the engine and exhaust piping is warm though. This is much more noticeable with a high flow cat or catless downpipe. Another thing to note is that you will get condensation vapors coming out of the exhaust when the engine and exhaust piping are cool. Checking shaft play on the turbo, and for oil residue in the charge piping would verify that the turbo is okay. I would assume that these fixed the smoke issue on your car unless you have a damaged turbo. I see that you have the UPR DVCC and their breather cap as well. A more permanent solution would be to add a catch can to separate the oil from the PCV return to the intake. ![]() That won't be necessarily be fixed by raising the idle. I can see how that would be a bandaid fix for the smoking, but the real issue is that the engine is ingesting oil and water vapor that creates smoke in the exhaust. Raising the idle would decrease the vacuum which would decrease the effectiveness of the PCV system. We spent several months tuning this car, but we may not have had the time with the mods to notice the idle smoke issue you're mentioning. If you are using premium octane, and you want all out, maximum power, then select premium octane Power Tuning.Īdjustable features depend on year, make, and model of vehicle.Good question! Although we did mod our test vehicle with full exhaust and high flow catted downpipe we didn't see any issues with smoke at idle. In most cases, Hypertech’s exclusive Power Tuning for regular octane provides excellent power gains, almost as much power as premium octane. But, if your car or truck came from the factory capable of using more economical regular octane, then two (2) optimized tuning programs are provided: one for premium, and the other for regular. Higher compression ratio engines and engines with superchargers or turbo chargers were designed to use only premium octane, so only one (1) Power Tuning program for premium octane is provided. The results are maximum power and fuel mileage.Max Energy.The Best Hand held Performance Tuner On The Market! With the additional power and optimized transmission functions, drivers use less fuel to accelerate and maintain cruising speeds without the torque converter un-locking and transmission down-shifting to a lower gear.
