    Ford Racing CMVC Delete under $100

    oh don't worry, these 3V cars are a PIECE OF CAKE to work on compared to the 5.0's! The coolant lines are completely separate from the intake; you won't even touch the coolant lines. There are no EGR sensors/valves to fool with, and no throttle cable to unbolt from the upper intake. Oh yeah...

    Ford Racing CMVC Delete under $100

    I didn't reinstall my motor, nor did I reinstall it on my neighbor's 06. Some people reinstall it, but most don't. It will not go into failsafe mode... that's what the new tune is for. I didn't torque my intake bolts down either. Like JTGrant said, their torque spec isn't very much... just...

    Options questions for future GT purchase

    I have the Ford all-weather rubber floormats and they do a descent job. I will say there are probably better rubber floormats out there. But I'll be honest.... I was a sucker for the Ford rubber mats because of the Pony logo that is molded into them! :) btw, what part of West Virginia are...

    How to use the MP3 feature.

    ahhh I gotcha now. So apparently, itunes is just about the only source out there that does not automatically download as mp3... If you were downloading from ANY place other than itunes, then the "drag n drop" routine would be all you need to do. You need to do one of the 2 following...

    Ford Racing CMVC Delete under $100

    you are correct. If your tune has the option of "CRMC: stock or delete", then this will turn off the cmrc motor, turn off the check engine light, AND will also load new spark/fuel tables.

    How to use the MP3 feature.

    Most of my songs are songs I have ripped from my cd's and converted to mp3. *Not that I have ever done this*, but I've *heard* that LimeWire is a great program & source to download music. It works just like the original Napster, Soulseek, etc. I may be wrong on this part, but I think you...

    Ford Racing CMVC Delete under $100

    from what I have seen, the only tune that "comes" with the crmc delete option is the SCT canned tune and some Predator canned tunes. The only way you will get an Evolution, BamaChips, Brenspeed, etc. tune for the cmrc deletes is if you tell them you need it. Even in their tunes, there is no...

    How to use the MP3 feature.

    LOL = laugh out loud. Windows is all you need. When you download music, it is already in mp3 format. All you do is Drag N Drop, and burn as a data CD. done deal. :) Now if you want to rip songs from CD's you currently own, you need a program like Exact Auto Copy to convert them from...

    Ford Racing CMVC Delete under $100

    yes the Steedas do appear to have larger ports; but unless you have ported heads you won't notice a difference because the Steeda ports are larger than the head ports. The FRPP plates are just fine.

    JLT Intake users

    I got the cai/SCT kit from JLT. It included the SCT canned tune that had several choices to pick from for the airbox: JLT, Steeda, stock, C&L, and a couple others.

    New track times very disappointed @ Speedworld

    yeah just keep practicing and you'll get those 60's down. I've already gotten over 115 passes in this car just at the track alone. The mods in my sig are all I have. When it trapped 107.79, it was at Darlington during Mustang Week '06 and it was very hot. I'm going to go to Mason-Dixon on...

    Ford Racing CMVC Delete under $100

    I have NO clue... I haven't dyno'd the car since before I installed the cmrc's or the BamaChips tune.

    How to use the MP3 feature.

    yeah you don't need any special software to make mp3 CD's. All you need is Windows LOL Make as many folders as you want; just keep them to one level (no subfolders). If you don't have any artist/album info in the file properties on your pc, then you will have no artist/album info on your...

    Ford Racing CMVC Delete under $100

    That tune is fine. I ran the canned sct tune with the cmrc's turned off in the tune, and it was just fine. I used that tune for a week or two. I only got the BamaChips tune cause I had $50 burning a hole in my pocket LOL

    New track times very disappointed @ Speedworld

    You just need to find another track to go to. I've heard for YEARS about how bad Speedworld is. Yes, drag radials & traction devices will obviously help. But it is possible to get good traction on the stock tires if you're on just a halfway descent track... and I realize Speedworld sucks...

    Ford Racing CMVC Delete under $100

    I lost no mpg with the plates. I have made the comment in the past that I believed I lost .5 mpg with the plates; but then it dawned on me that it had nothing to do with them. Before I had the plates, I ran my canned SCT tune in "fuel economy" mode... that's when I averaged 23.5 mpg. I only...

    Ford Racing CMVC Delete under $100

    We installed these plates on my neighbor's car last week and his results were outstanding just like mine were. He has no loss in bottom end, and the car actually pulls harder on the low end. Before, his mods consisted of: SCT XCal 2 w/ some shop's tune I can't remember who DeMolet...

    Once you install those plates, you don't want to ever reinstall the stock tune. It's been said the car will "drive" ok, but it won't take too long for it to go into fail safe mode. I don't know how long it takes?

    Ford Racing CMVC Delete under $100

    you'll be perfectly fine by using that cmrv delete option in your canned tune. My XCal came with the canned tune along with that option. When I installed my delete plates, I just used that option and the car was fine. I talked with a couple tuners and a couple people that work for SCT and...
