    Post your Dragy times.

    I never tried with 87, but I think my best completely stock with 93 was 5.2 and best with gearhead AO tune everything else stock was 4.28 (in -1455 da).

    Best tune for 2020 Ford Explorer ST

    Much smoother than stock. Honestly loved the tune, only reason I tried ZFG was to shut up all the people that kept commenting "switch to zfg if you want to go quicker" on my youtube videos. Turned out they were actually right this time. I run the ZFG E50 tune 95% of the time, but if I go on a...

    Best tune for 2020 Ford Explorer ST

    Nobody with the monster x tune has posted any times, so hard to really make a concrete conclusion. Having run ZFG I would say absolutely worth the extra money. I would advise going with the auto octane tune if someone else is putting gas in it. Better safe than sorry. I went with Gearhead AO...

    Bad MPG

    Get on a long flat road and set your cruise at 55-65 mph then reset the mpg's. That will tell you instantly if something is wrong with your vehicle. On a flat road at those speeds you should easily see 25 mpg on a fresh reset. Take a video if it is less than 20, it might help you with ford.

    11.69 full weight

    Second time it's gone 11.69 at the track, first time doing it full weight. DA was nearly perfect 1000 at the time of this run. Might have been able to squeeze another hundreth or two off 60' time if I adjusted air pressure, but I forgot to load the air compressor so I raced on what I rolled in...

    Hard launch transmission disengages

    Full disclosure, that 11.69 was with the two rear seats removed and spare tire removed. Quickest full weight pass was 11.82 but I've never done a full max rpm launch yet. I'm a bit jaded against Livernois from my past experiences, but if I was advising someone using their tune, I would...

    anyone use the auto park

    It doesn't do well in empty lots. I've tried using mine twice in nearly empty lots, it lets me drive by endless empty spaces, but as soon as there is another car, it finds an available spot and then parks right next to the other vehicle.

    Hard launch transmission disengages

    Once he sees the difference in yours, I predict he will have a ZFG tune on his very quickly. LMS had the same issue a few years back in the SHO world. I was one of many that had the issue, hard launch and all the sudden when it should be in 2nd gear it felt like it went to neutral. They told...

    RTD+ Does not recognize ECU?

    Ya I send all logs using the phone and app. Just remember to fill out a tuning request thru the website after you send it so that you are offically in line for him to look at it. One other thing to watch out for, if you don't use it for a few weeks or months and then get a revision or something...

    RTD+ Does not recognize ECU?

    I think you have to go into vehicle config and type your vehicle strategy # and save it for the data to come up on the channels. I've only used it thru laptop once but I feel like that exact same thing happened to me until I typed the strategy in.

    Can't update the SYNC using a USB

    I think my system update took a few days for it to finally finish. It took so long I gave up on it working, but the sync one went smooth as silk. If all else fails, try disconnecting the battery for 10-15 minutes and try the update again.

    Can't update the SYNC using a USB

    That's the second time I read it wrong. LOL! I did the update back in December and sat in it for 20 minutes just idling while it did the update. Maybe try a different thumb drive? I had also upgraded the main system software previous to doing the sync upgrade, so maybe that could be a factor.

    Can't update the SYNC using a USB

    I always scored incredibly poor on reading comprehension on the iowa tests of basic skills.

    Can't update the SYNC using a USB

    Gotta leave it running and in park until the update finishes. Can I drive while SYNC is updating? (ford.com)

    Question for E50-E70 guys

    E50 stock injectors here. Once you go E you won't ever want to go back.

    Bad MPG

    There should be a button right by the mode selector to turn it off.

    Bad MPG

    Reset the mileage while you are driving somewhere flat and straight that you can just cruise at 55-65 mph for a few minutes. You should be mid to high 20's in those conditions. If you are under 20 mpg driving at those speeds on a flat road, something is wrong. City driving and idling will bring...

    aFe Intakes for the 22’s

    They may have just thrown a cap on it for you. I used a dollar chair cap and clamp on mine. It's pretty obvious what the opening is, so I'd bet money you are absolutely fine, they'd have to be incompetent to miss that.
