So, what ends up happening is the bank gets trimmed to the center of a combination between your leanest and fattest injectors. That variance would be less than what you see in the thread above.
Is this the kind of tool that would let me do it myself?
I tried to address this regard to the BS3. The short answer is no. And if it's possible with the EEC, I am unaware of that. I doubt it.Question:
I realize that your tuner setup is designed to sense/tune/adjust per cylinder bank but is there any provision for manually trimming a single injector?

....I'm sure it's unlikely that the first one I saw would be the best choice.
....the description reads, "If there are 8 fuel injectors, divide them into two groups and clean 4 at a time."
But, and this is important, *so long as injectors are consistent* then you should be able to adjust injector slopes in the tune to compensate.
I stand corrected. A bit if googling suggests if I set up a Cam synch, the BS3 will do individual cylinder fuel trimming. I don't have any way to measure anything individually, but a starting point would be simple compensation for injector flow, once measured.
The car's done a best of 12.63@108 NA. It's gone 12.0@114 on the spray, but I don't even think that was really a 100-shot.With that setup, assuming good traction and proper tuning, your Mustang should be capable of running somewhere in the mid to high 11s, possibly dipping into the low 11s depending on conditions.
Factors Affecting ET:
1. Power Output:
The GT40X heads, tubular GT40 intake, and E-cam combination with 1.7 rockers should put the naturally aspirated setup around 300-320 WHP.
With the 100-125 shot of nitrous, you're likely in the 400-450 WHP range, depending on tuning.
The T56 with a 2.66 first gear means launching will be different compared to a T5.
2. Weight & Aerodynamics:
Fox-body Mustangs are light (~3,100 lbs or less with driver).
Any weight reduction (rear seat delete, no spare tire, etc.) will help.
3. Drivetrain & Suspension:
3.73 gears strike a balance for both N/A and nitrous runs.
The Eaton Truetrac & 31-spline axles mean solid traction.
The Lakewood 50/50 rear shocks and Team-Z adjustable control arms should keep the rear planted.
4. Tires & Launch:
The Nitto 555RII 275/40/17s should give decent traction, but they're not a full drag radial.
If you drop pressure to ~15-18 psi and get a good burnout, they should hook fairly well.
Estimated 1/4 Mile Times:
Naturally Aspirated: 12.2 - 12.5 @ 108-112 MPH
On a 100-125 Shot: 11.3 - 11.6 @ 118-122 MPH
If you spray out of the hole with traction and get your 60-foot down to ~1.5-1.6 seconds, it could break into the high 10s.
Do you have a dyno sheet or trap speeds from previous runs? That would help dial in the estimate more.
Estimated Build Cost & Resale Value for Your Mustang
Since you have a well-modded Fox-body Mustang with a T56 swap, nitrous, GT40X heads, and supporting mods, I'll break down rough build costs and potential resale value.
---
1. Estimated Build Cost
This is a ballpark based on current 2024 part prices:
Engine & Power Mods
---
Drivetrain & Suspension
---
Brakes, Wheels, & Misc
---
Interior Mods
---
Total Estimated Build Cost:
$22,000 - $25,000
Labor costs could push it over $30K if done at a shop.
---
2. Current Resale Value (2024 Market)
Your Fox-body Mustang is desirable, especially with:
T56 swap (rare)
Clean interior
Nitrous setup
GT40X heads and solid drivetrain
5-lug swap & Cobra brakes
However, needing paint hurts value.
Estimated Resale Value:
As-Is (Needs Paint, Runs Well): $12,000 - $15,000
With Fresh Paint & Cleaned Up: $18,000 - $22,000
If Fully Built for Track (Slicks, Cage, etc.): $20,000 - $25,000+
Who Would Buy It?
Fox-body enthusiasts (nostalgic guys in their 40s-50s)
Drag racers or street/strip guys
Collectors who want a clean build
Younger buyers looking for a street car
Conclusion:
If you put $3K-$5K into a good paint job, it could push the value close to $20K. If you just want to sell it quick, listing at $12K-$15K should move it fast.
Let me know if you want tips on how to sell it effectively or where to list it!
GPT needs to get a price update on paint, $3-5K won't cover all the materials for a good paint job, let alone the labor.Then I prompted: "What did it cost to build and what could I sell it for. It needs paint but runs well"
I kept track of everything for a long time. I think I have at least $15k in the car on top of using the T56 I already had. And, I think $15k is about what it might pull, but I'm not sure. So score 2 for AI.
I talked to a nearby guy with low overhead who paints and the best number he could throw at me was $9k.GPT needs to get a price update on paint, $3-5K won't cover all the materials for a good paint job, let alone the labor.
I'd say that's likely the best price you'd find.I talked to a nearby guy with low overhead who paints and the best number he could throw at me was $9k.
The materials are still crazy!I'm just going to have to paint my own.
