VIII looking for 8s
We may all be old, but not all of us are slow.
Uh oh, I heard your ride is going to get "bossy".

Yeah, what he said.
Seriously though, I am curious about the throttle response feel at the pedal. I'm sure the wide open throttle is better, but what about regular fast driving?
After driving gen 1's and gen 2's, I personally like the throttle response of the gen 1's. It just feels quicker.
How does the Cobra intake compare to the 2 originals?
The car feels a bit stronger up top, but nothing dramatic. I'll know for sure once I get it on the track.
Well, I've never driven a Gen 1 in anger, and any automatic is going to feel like a pig to me as my 12 second cars are both manuals.
And, honestly, I don't notice much of a difference in throttle response. You've got to remember that I've got a fairly loose TC (~3,600), which just kiils tip-in response. The car feels a bit stronger up top, but nothing dramatic. I'll know for sure once I get it on the track.
What I had said earlier was a comment about off-idle response, which initially was like a light switch due to the Accufab, until I adjusted my tune.
Dyno results:
256 HP @ 6,000 RPM, still 246 HP @ 6,500 RPM
247 TQ @ 5,100 RPM
Cool! What has the car dynoe'd at before? Mine was 242rwhp on the stock intake at 80 Fahrenheit. Did your torque curve move up a bit too?
Great write up, great work.
You worked meticulously on this swap, and it shows.
One question on the IMRC Delete Plates.
Are they as bad as I have read/heard on the street? "under 4k rpm"
Thanks!!
Having said all that, would Dr. DLF advise IMRC deletes for the new mill in my '93???
