i, too had a negative experience with PBD and i was also left hanging. they even got the base tune wrong for what i had installed, which was the ford performance power pack 2. they did not factor in the larger throttle body. their initial menu for your tuning options had a field where you can...
I was not trying to chase the 60 - 130. Since I was doing a 1/4 mile run, I thought I'd push it to 130 for curiosity. I just want to know if my car is on par.
I'd like to think that the lighter wheels and e85r tune made a significant difference.
I could not hook on the street with my previous...
I had the Ford performance power pack 2 installed (GT350 throttle body and cai) and was in the middle to near end of datalogging when the tuner said the GT350 throttle body was more trouble than its worth, so i switched back to the stock throttle body and air intake and started from scratch...

i got one really good WOT run that includes all of the times and stuff by making it up to 130 from a stop. my 60-130 shows a valid time of 12.65 seconds, 0-130 in 17 seconds. i've seen a few threads where people are getting far quicker times. it feels fast to me, but i'd like to know why or if...
i can't say it enough that tires made a huge difference for me.
i had factory 20x9's 265/35R20 goodyear F1 assymetricals and they spun like crazy in 1st and 2nd. i just could not hook up.
i did my research here and asked questions. i went with a lighter and wider wheel ( SVE 357's ) in a 19x10...
once again, it's not what i did to my S550, it's what it did to me...it put a smile on my face.
running the E85R tune, the recent new wheels and tires, advance trac off, normal driving mode, from a stop i just hit the go pedal...got all kinds of personal best times using a Dragy. i'd love to...
i'm still feeling the imperfections in the road. same tires, but 275/40R19 up front and 295/35R19 in the rear. i lost about 52 pounds of unsprung weight. maybe i need better shocks and struts.
i was blown away on how well these tires hooked. it was a chilly 60 degrees, advance-trac off and no...
It's not what i did to my S550, it's what it did to me....
it put a smile on my face.
after work, i did 2 1/4 mile runs with a Dragy. it's weird that both were "invalid" due to low satellites and the other to data loss.
these Continental extreme contact sport 02's are amazing...welcome to the...
