Help to Tune VP V6 supercharged Ford Ute

Post by KTM 300 »

Hi all.
I'm a very fresh newbie and with no experience with tuning EFI.
Would some be able to help me out with some advice about basic requirements that I need for tuning (I have read basic start up guide very informative) or even better would be a tuned memcal rather than the Ebay special that some has fitted to my ute before I bought it.
The specs of the ute are (don't lough)
Ford Courier 4X4
Manual 5speed
Rebuilt VP V6 fitted with a Eaton M62 supercharger, 6PSI boost
A/C
Power Steering

Please help or point me in the right direction

Thanks

I guess you need to decide if your wanting to tune it or would like someone else to?

For basic parts to tune it yourself its all covered in the getting started guide...
A way to make changes to the ECU tune - NVRAM or ostrich or simply burning memcals
A way to log it - ALDL interface
A way to monitor AFR - wideband.
A way to finalise your tune when done - EPROM burner.
And, A way to know what your adjusting - delcohacking.net :thumbup:
