Crane Interceptor 1

[88DECH]

i have an 88 dech mustang with a 5lb supercharger on it and there is a crane interceptor computer control unit...i have been tryin to program this thing to give me good performance, but also good gas mileage..anybody have any tuning tips or what u run on it..or if you've heard of this thing? thanks

Is everything else stock on the engine except the supercharger?. What grade(Octane) of gas do you run. What is your base timing set at? I can probably help you when these questions are answered. I have been programming the Interceptor II for 6 years and I think the Interceptor has the same functions just not the range of change for each selection.

its got a mild ford motorsport cam..i dont know which one..i bought it like this, an fmu which came with the supercharger, dynomax exhaust, everything else is stock...i was told svo heads, but this i am unsure of. Timing is set at 8* and i run 92 octane..i want lotsa performance but my fuel curves are all outta wack right now..thanks

Well a Interceptor is useless when using a FMU because it just floods the car with fuel under pressure and it is not stable. You really need 24-30lb injectors and the FMU can be trashed and the Interceptor and do its job. The Interceptor-1 does not have enough range to use it alone with 19lb injectors. The car will run better if you '0' the settings for the Interceptor and move your timing to 10-12 degrees at the crank and see how it runs. With 91octane and 5psi you can have 24-26 total degrees of timing.
