Tuned Expedition vs. stock Mustang GT

[scottdm]

This is a fun video with Andre from the Fast Lane Truck. I'm glad 5 Star has a couple of Expeditions in their fleet to help them dial in their tunes. I've been pleased with my 93 tune and it was nice to be able to discuss Expedition specifics with 5 Star at the time that I ordered.

This one has about 100 extra hp on top your 93 tune. We’ve got another discussion on this in thread titled 650 crank hp

Video was newly posted yesterday, so thought some may enjoy seeing it. Wasn't able to find the other thread you mention.

I've been primarily using the 93 towing/daily driving tune and I've been pleased with the results. I like that the various driving modes (eco, sport, normal, etc) still offer distinct attributes within the tune that is being run. Overall, the throttle response and shifting behaviors are more responsive, which is a noticeable improvement. I did add the JLT catch can, but that is all so far. I may do a cold air intake at some point, but am pleased with the current performance, so we'll see.

If you do the intake, make sure you datalog or it will be for nothing

I wonder if TFLcar has done any content on the new gen 3 5.0 with E-85 recalibration, it makes some serious gains for a naturally aspirated engine with an ethanol tune and intake....530 horsepower with no cam work done:

I just used sport mode for the first time since I tuned it. I didn't think it would make much difference, but as Ron white said" and I was wrong". Had guy in a hemi ram thought he was a hot dog the expedition barked the tires shifting and showed him taillights really quick.

Nice! Are you running the 93 towing/daily driving tune, or the 93 performance tune? I've noticed I have to disable traction control for any spirited driving since it intervenes way too early.

Video is bull$hit. Expedition has a new intake, intercooler and 'high flow' cats, E50 fuel. Lets see a stock Expedition(with a tune only on pump gas), vs. a stock Mustang. The power to weight ratio alone says this doesn't make sense. 2,000lbs more, come on? Can someone from Ford weigh in?

They said Stock Mustang GT vs modified Expedition it was a fair title. Yes an ethanol tuned or modified 5.0 would have left the Expedition back but key word is Stock. The Expedition still only beat the GT by about 5 feet with all the work done, and in the 1/4 mile the stock GT would have won looking at how it starts running the Expedition down toward the end. They don’t want to show their modified press truck getting spanked by a stock car, hence the short run.

Obviously lots of factors at play, but just for fun to show off their ecoboost mods.

93 performance tune , I also have the daily and towing tune but 5 star said run the performance tune.
All the modifications were listed.what would Ford know about the tunes

We’ve already established this in a previous thread, clown. A win is a win

He’s just being himself, gotta ask ford since he knows nothing about ecoboosts as he’s never owned one

dude you need to take a reading comprehension course!!!

That 'video' was about as real as Dirty Harry. It probably had $4K in work done, to equal an 1/8 mile speed of 90mph. I will run my 2011 Mustang Gt against any 'new', stock Expedition. You guys are dreamers. I drove a V6 Expedition, its peppy maybe, not race fast. Not even close. Drive a 5.0l Mustang and report back.
