Bogging?

[cbass]

Went to the track friday, super nice night, temp in the 60's DA in the low 600's, and they have been spraying the track really well this year, grip is not the problem anymore. No way was I going to pass that up.

Three of my passes, I got GREAT launches in, then about 4500-5000 rpm, it would shut the fuck down, like it was slamming the throttle plate. I'm no pro dragger, so my first thought was, "I lifted because I'm not used to that kind of motion out of my car."

Nope. Happened the next run. So I tried going from just traction control off to stability control off for a third consecutive run, still happened. After that, I parked it and spectated the rest of the night. Not stoked, best 60 I could get was 2.0.

Relevant info: 13 gt, jlt intake, cat deletes/x, bama tune, 305/35R20 nittos at 20 psi. 4-5 second scrub from the box to make sure the tire were ready. 2 step is ecu set at 3000.

Is there something tune related that could be the problem? No indicator lights, no stored codes, no hints from the ECU as to why it wants to limit my fun.

At least my sixty foots are measured in a metric smaller than years.

Did you try reving higher? Usually bogging means there is not enough power. I would try leaving at a higher rpm next time.

It wasn't a bog like I needed more revs, it was once the car got going. I wish I had the video. It would hook and go, then right about at the tree, it would slam the nose down, and the engine sounded like I lifted.

........he said "lifted".....

My buddy had the same issue with his 13. He said he would happen whenever the car hooked well. We came to the conclusion that it was the tune. And his car was 100% stock.

How much fuel in the tank

Torque management in the tune.

A lot of times the transmission tq management is missed (and yes, the manuals have it) that will cause this on the Mustangs.

Got ya. In that case, I agree with everyone else. Tune is your issues.

Impromptu drag racing, I had about 3/4 of a tank.

I think I am going to call Adam Marrer and get some magic.

Are bama tunes really that bad on the coyotes?

I had a tune from them when I had my 3v and it ran fine.

 

[GallopingFord]

From everything I've seen, yes.

I too had one on my 3V when the N/A dyno tune (for my HR cams) I got was absolute shit. They managed to get my car working much better, with smaller issues.

I recommended Bama to my friend when he wanted an intake and tune and it made his car run like absolute garbage. All he did was a JLT and tune and when he asked them they told him something is not right with his car and it wasn't the tune. His car was running so rich to the point the exhaust tips blackened within a 5 minute drive and the car would randomly stall out and misfire.

I was really upset, because I figured it was simple enough and to the point it wouldn't have been an issue. He ended up going with Lund which was nothing but successful.

Where's Frankie..............

The problem is torque management/clutch protection needs to be turned off in the tune. Something Bama has no idea how to do. Get a better tune.
