- Foxbody mustang came in for tuning and turned into a good bit more. For each step forward we went 2 steps back, but finally got it squared away and running good. im sure this one will make its way back to turn it up to make some more power. Turbo was the 0n 3 70mm.

Your a patient guy Joe. Alot of people would have thrown in the towel or at least been pretty upset with the customer. You took it as a personal challenge. Much respect brother.
People like you are like heroes to me! Determination! Guys lucky someone like you is working on it for him.
I like these dyno videos and you explaining your process. It gives me some insight on things to look for when I attempt to start tuning my project. I’m reading a few efi tuning books and the information in the Holley software while I’m deployed. Also I really like the fabrication videos you put out. Keep it going!
Great job man ! I can imagine how frustrating it can be but, this is also what leads to more work in the shop and you looking good by putting out quality work.
I hope the people that u tune their cars watch the videos and see the work and effort u put into making their cars run right! Great videos and Great patience and Great work ethic!! 👍
Fantastic video !! I love everything you showed and pointed out.
Man Now that’s a lot of work you put in much respect!
man you have a ton of patient's joe! most shops i have worked at would have called that guy and said bring it back when all the issues are straightened out! good job ! subscribed!
Another great video and congrats on the 1500 subs.
You deserve a ton of credit for not throwing your hands up like many would’ve. Good on you brother
Man, you had to fight for this one. Alot to over come. Well done. Subscriber gained👌🏾😎
Man... Mickey Mouse club with that install. You go above and beyond Joe.
I felt the frustration, good work
You did the right thing! Not everyone has all the money to throw at their cars. I bet he's going to have the best Christmas now
Sir - you earned a Sub, notification bell, and a like just because of your demeanor. What a great person to have representing our sport and a great representation of a true Businessman. Thank you for all that you do Sir. If I ever am in need - you can count on my business. And if you have merch, I will be purchasing. God Bless.
I'm having a hard time finding somebody who can tune an exact setup
Good work Joe! As usual! May be the air filter size is also an issue?
Thanks for sharing your work.
Good job joe I would never be able to bring you a car like that like half done that must piss you off
I feel your pain on vehicles fighting you. It is rare when I get a vehicle to tune that doesn’t require a bunch of work. I’d say there is something wrong with 90% of the vehicles brought to me.
Ima drive to Maryland & get my crap box tuned, I’m close just chasing a stumble on wot at from low rpm to redline
I know this is an old video, but I have a ponydown turbo kit with the same wastegate setup and header setup. Never had a problem with it that way. My gate is external pointing right at the ground. Gates so loud! lol.
I'm not sure if this was asked, but what size fuel injectors was the car running with?
I have an on three kit with ms3 on a 94 mustang 76mm it's a lot of work to get ready for the dyno
I feel his pain right now. I’m dealing with a vacuum leak on my mustang. I can hook up some air pressure and it all goes good, but once I start the car it all goes to shit. No movement from my boost gauge or map sensor.
Whatever you got paid wasn't half of what you deserved, well done.
Haha i was getting aggravated just watching, we have all fought that fight. What heads were on it? And what was total timing in the upper rpm range?
Innovate wideband are JUNK! I went through 4 of their 4.2 sensors in a year tuning various cars. I switched to an AEM 30-0300 and I haven't looked back. I will be getting a 30-0334 for the OBDII cars soon.
I've heard this a few times and i know Matt Happel doesn't like em but, I've had the same one on my car for 7 years ! Never an issue.
Innovate wideband are problematic when used into the tailpipe. The sensor Life Is very short due to the thermal management.
@@andreasanai3542 I've tuned cars with hard mounted Innovate widebands that just failed for no reason. 4.2 and 4.9. It's crazy because they use the same sensors as everyone else but always show a failure for noooooooo reason. I took a "failed" 4.9 from an Innovate controller, literally plugged it into an AEM controller once and IT WORKED JUST FINE. Fluke? Maybe. Didn't continue to use it or anything....
What ended up to be the best timing for it at 13 psi , curious as I have very similar build and use 19 at 10.5 psi . But a bit fat at 10.4 afr
What is your "old faithful" WBO2? Is it LSU 4.9?
I often wonder if it was the Innovate LC-1 I have that has been the cause of my troubles with an old megasquirt self-tuning issue, and with trying to tune the different circuits in my Holley Carb with it. I plan on trashing the LC-1.
Not sure if I will go with a Terminator X or Holley HP. Your videos are helping me decide.
If you have the money the HP is far superior, but it’s hard to ignore the price or the terminator.
I have a couple of motec plm widebands and then the dyno has a built in wideband as well.
The ballinger air fuel meter is the best affordable one out there
Watching this gives me anxiety. Do you think it was an install issue, a less than ideal design or the microsquirt? I have a turbo 5.0 ranger with a micro. I haven't had Any issues so far, but I need to get it to a Dyno.
How much would you charge to send a copy of that tune to me?
So was the gate just opening to soon or not opening
I'd really like to know what the old school trick was 🤔
This video gave me PTSD of when I had an on3 kit. They aren’t worth the money in my opinion, bolt a blower on the sbf and go no chasing leaks and fighting heat.
After all that , if the customer watches this , once he gets a few extra bucks im sure he will make it right with you. But in the end you did the right thing and paid it forward.
At 13 psi what was the timing set at
Anyone know the timing on 13 psi? I'm assuming 93 octane
Whats your opinion of the ms3 vs. Holley terminator? If you had a 2 k budget?
I prefer Holley. I made a video kinda comparing a bunch of ecus
Nice video bro! Whats the advantages & disadvantages of a micro squirt vs Terminator X on a fox-body 302 supercharger car?
Mainly cost
Terminator x is more user friendly
Who the heck built this car. Jeez man. Was nothing put together right?
I'm running the innovative o2 and so far I haven't noticed any issue.... although it could explain some tuning trouble I've been having.... you said you switched to your "go to" sensor, which one would that be? perhaps its time to try something better....
I have 2 MoTeC plm’s and my dyno also has a wideband as well and spare sensors and stuff. Probably like 10k in just air fuel metering crap
@@JoeSimpsonAtTempest well, at your level that isn't too surprising. I'm just doing this as a hobby to make a fun fox...thought I would get the base 5L engine running well with MS3x and the innovative WBs, then try to add stuff like turbos, cams, etc. I have found that it tunes okay....but it does odd things now and then. I was just checking out the motec stuff looks pretty good, but I can't find anything on how to wire it into the MS3x, don't suppose you'd have a simple wiring layout of what would go where, would you?
@@RobCatley just used a 5v out like any other wideband I’d your not doing it through can. The ballanger Motorsport is the best, affordable wideband that i have found.
Where are you located? I need some help with my 1988 foxbody it has a 347 with a on3 kit.
I am in Waldorf Maryland
@@JoeSimpsonAtTempest damn that’s a drive from south bend Indiana. I enjoy watching you channel
Was there still plenty of fuel left on the 60# injectors?
60s are plenty with a stockish 302 and the on3..I’m pretty sure Brew2l is running 60s
I run the 60s same kit with 7lbs and ya it’s plenty of fuel left on them
I dont know anyone that has had luck with innovate widebands. Also thats pretty typical of the on3 kits on mustangs to have shit wastegate placement and boost control.
i agree with all of that haha
Turbo sounds like it's not even workin
Innovate garbageeee
