@@automafiaracing That's odd, I had the exact issues. I took the xcal out to my expedition which has ran fine for 250,000 miles and it did the exact same thing. Tach drop out and cutting out. Switched to a new xcal and problem resolved. It doesn't make sense since the xcal is a pass through. But mine did it on seperate cars only when plugged in for datalogging. Put a dvom on a reference wire to a sensor and see if it's a voltage issue dropping out. If not, put a dvom on a ground source to a sensor to see if it's ground cut out. Take the SCT device and laptop to another Ford of the same generation of processors and attempt datalogging only with a laptop. See if you duplicate concern. Brian

Wow, all that work and expense for 400 WHP???? Expected at least 600WHP for that type of setup.

Short Block won't take more than 550

@@automafiaracing short block won’t take much more than 450 wheel

[@abasiczombie.]

How did you come up with this expectation? Boost usually gives a car 7% more power. He’d have to be close to 18psi for that! Stock block can’t handle much more than 12 and that’s pushing it

[@robertwood3970]

@@abasiczombie. The block can handle 600whp easy, the sleeves are the weak point on a 2v mod motor. With a conservative tune it could do it. I have a 3.8L V6 making 400 whp. Have raced it for years.

[@abasiczombie.]

@@robertwood3970 actually the rods and pistons are the weak point. Yes the block can hold the power but the internals on a stock 2v aren’t forged. Your 3.8 has the same internals stock, just minus 2 cylinders. Given the same boost, the 4.6 2v v8 will make more than your V6. And given that they both have the same internals(stock), they’ll hold a certain amount of pressure per capita of their size. The stock internals on a 2v will only hold 500 horsepower to the crank and that’s if it has a ton of fuel. 4v mod motors can hold 500 crank reliably. Yes, some can go higher and some pop way lower, but the average is 400-450whp for a 2v with 8-10psi

[@ozkrpalminteri9431]

Im sorry but those engines are not built for any bolt on performance whatsoever, they're just daily drivers

[@automafiaracing]

Hey dont be talking like that about the good lil 2v! It does its best!

[@stillamarine1001]

Why would you want to spend the money to put a turbo on a ragged out 2V? If the car was in good condition that's one thing. I mean this car has never been loved at all looks like.

[@automafiaracing]

We honestly thought the same thing

[@masongregory5311]

Maybe it’s for a younger car guy or girl🤷🏼‍♂️Ik my 2v isn’t the fastes and isn’t the cleanest but I still like trying to do stuff to it

[@augustinesanchez3833]

Gregory Haha yeah I don't really care how my car looks just wanna go fast. Speed>looks.

[@automafiaracing]

Amen thats why all our fast cars are def not ahow cars

[@RageKing37]

So a customer brings you a running car with no issues, Pays you a ton of $$$$ to install a Turbo kit that hundreds of other people have installed without an ECU Issue, and all you guys do is say sorry buddy, Btw that'll be a couple grand for the install!!! Make sure you bring it back to us when you figure out what we Fd up so we can tune it for you and blow it up LMAO! pretty sure this guy NEVER came back🤣 You should take this video down.. Its bad for business

[@automafiaracing]

We only stopped because the customer asked us to. We dont work for free and i wouldnt expect anyone else to

[@RageKing37]

@@automafiaracing BELIEVE ME... I would never ask or expect anyone to perform a service for free... My point is... If he brought the car in and the ECU was fine, Then would I be crazy to think that just maybe you guys did something to cause the problem... I mean if the engine blew or the trans bit the dust.. well that would atleast make sense considering the age of the car... But the ECU suddenly has problems? I know it happens but its not likely.. Anyway us Mustang guys are constantly being raped by shops.. For instance I called to get a quote from Lamotta in Fl... They did a Vortech supercharger in my 95 Cobra 12yrs ago and did fantastic work. The bill was 700$ for the install AND dyno tune... The quote for my 2001 vortech non intercooled was 1500$ not tuned... Just one example, I could go on for days.. Anyway it just seems like you guys should have gone the extra mile for the guy. He probably put everything he had into that.. Imagine how much better this vid would have been had you guys fixed the prob and did the dyno tune... People watching would think... Damn! These guys give a shit, thats were Im taking my car... Wish you guys the best man.

[@automafiaracing]

Yeah you didnt look close..this car.was junk. Like it was terrible. We couldnt figure out why he was dumping that much cash into it.

[@automafiaracing]

We do our best to treat every customer the same. If they come in with a Ferrari or a Honda. No special treatment.

[@BBob33524]

Sounds like LS swap time ;)

[@automafiaracing]

I mean if he wants to lol

[@midnight347]

Or you could just upgrade the rods and pistons for a couple grand total and turn it up to much higher levels and you wouldn't have a bastard child car with the wrong engine in the and the car would still sound sick. Why go through all the bs to ls swap a 4.6 turbo mustang when all you gotta do to make WAY More power with the current power plant is upgrade the rods and pistons that alone is good for 600-700! Eaailh if you also upgrade to an 8 bolt forged crank while you're in there sky's the limit especially if it is a teksid block 4.6. No need to swap anything other than bottom end parts.
