Anybody feel like looking at my dragy result and see if it looks as it should?

Just installed my Gearhead AO tune. Best 0-60 stock was 5.35. Still all stock except the tune, best time I got today was 4.58.

Launched around 2700 rpm. Minimal spin. Pretty flat road. Is this par for the course for this tune on my stock ST, or should I keep working on the launch?

Would help to see 60 foot time to see if there is room for improvement. Probably about right tho at that DA with no other mods. Throw a few gallons of e85 in the tank and do it on a cooler day and you'd probably be closer to 4 flat.

3,610 DA? Yikes!

I came within .18 sec of your 0-60 with my Ford Performance Tune, but my DA was a whole lot lower.

Yeah this week is going to be a lot cooler, so I’ll make some more runs and see how much better it gets. Then drive the 30 mins to get some e85 and see how fast that gets it

Well got some e85 juice going! Put in 4.5 gallons and filled up the rest of the tank with 92.

Ran it with about half a tank left. Pretty happy with the results. I could probably get it a little better with more runs, but hey 4.3 0-60 in an Explorer is pretty sweet!

Shit that’s quick. Even going up a slope. If I decide to do the intercooler I’ll probably move to ZFG.
Just wish my nearest e85 station was closer. It’s really 45 mins away. I’ll probably fill a few 5 gallon cans next time I go.
What RPM do you launch at I Bleed Ford?

About 2800, sport mode, Trac control off, advance trac off. That same run also pulled off a 12.09@112.30 mph

Nice. Yeah I figured out 2700-2800 is the sweet spot. I don’t turn off advance trac though.
