NY DIY GUY Build - Suspension & Performance Mods + Dyno + 1/4 Mile Runs

[rlhdweman]

It all looks very nice, but I am reading the dyno results which show a noticeable loss below 3000rpms, or am I reading this wrong? Just curious I was looking into this air cleaner assembly for mine in the future, I have a '22 which ran a best time of 14.61 stock with nothing but 91 fuel at the track.

That dyno chart looks confusing. Is yellow stock and green after the mods?

I think you need an exhaust system to go with that downpipe, might be too restrictive.

The day I picked it up

First mods were lighting. I purchased Diode Dynamics Reverse, Cab and Yellow fog light kit. Also got custom plates.

2nd Mod was Good-Win Racing Lowering and Handling Upgrade

3rd was Stainless works downpipe

4th was S&B Intake

5th was Fast Mavericks Intercooler

The day I put it on the rollers to see what it puts out to the wheels after mods listed and e-tune.

Here is my best 0-60 & 1/4 mile runs I made with my dragy.

That is what was done to the vehicle to date. I'll update this thread as I keep modding the vehicle. Thanks

I’m in the area, looking for tune.

I'm confused as well. So, Stock it ran 228hp and 366 Torque and after the tune, downpipe, and intake it made 246hp and 322 Torque?

I wonder if these figures represent the truck after the modes. Baseline was with mods, then the dyno guy tuned it. I would be upset with the loss of torque, that's what so confusing.

I'll throw up my best times for comparisons sake. I have JB4, S&B intake, and Thermal R&D exhaust. My best 0-60 is 5.69 and fastest 1/4 mile is 14.26 according to dragy. I have not had mine on the dyno so I don't know what my HP and TRQ numbers are.

Your truck looks great! What I like about the Maverick is that it is worth doing the aftermarket modifications. Most everything looks great on that truck. Love the fogs . . . on my wish list.

I’m not sure what’s going on it’s a sweet build and has all the right parts. But that’s a weak 1/4. Heck my wife’s 17 edge with the 2.0 was a half second faster with just a tune. That’s with less gears also.

My maverick with just a Livernois tune will walk her edge all day. So I have to be I. The 13’s.

Doubt it. These exhaust breathe pretty good. Most the gains will be the downpipe not the rest of the exhaust.

Nice build so far!

 

[Snox801]

Op any plans to track it? Say at a hose day?
Your truck is exactly what I was gonna do to mine. But I tend to go off the beaten path a bit too much to not do bigger tires and aggressive tread. So I always love your style builds.

Is the downpipe legal where you are? They're pretty strict with inspection here in NH. I'd love to get one but I don't think I can get away with it.

Sorry for the delay I've been remodeling the house so havn't checked MTC. The Stainless Works Downpipe is legal since it has a gesi cat. They say it wont set a check engine light but it does. I got a check engine light when I converted it after 2 weeks of daily use. I used a O2 sensor spacer to correct the issue of the check engine light and I haven't had a check engine light since the spacer install. So it will pass emissions.

so is that E30 or 93? confused also, i thought youd be at almost 280 and 360, Alan is very good, but might be tuning Remotely, and Dynojet are renowed heart breakers

That is with 93. Think the low numbers were due to the dyno operator. Car was slipping on the rollers and he was having a hard time calibrating the dyno to the vehicle. Alan has been great to work with and will have another go with him once I add a larger turbo this summer.

Just did a 3000 mile round round trip from nyc to new orleans and averaged 27.5 mpg highway on the 93 Oct tune from alan at edgeautosport. Not bad in my book fyi I have 4k tow package so have the larger gear ratio.

Some updates to the Maverick. Decided to cut out the front intercooler opening and added speedpro smoked marker lights.
