What happened with Mountune?

What do you mean?

Jason was probably more conservative, and it will continue to get better after many tune revisions. Maybe stick with Jason and start doing your tune logs. Everyone seems to like him more..

You think stratified would give me my money back? Also, their tune is noticably faster... But that could also be they jumped the gun a bit and overtuned it as well.

I don't have a Turbo upgrade, but I know from others that it takes many many revisions. You can't compare your base tune, you will probably have a dozen revisions. Go look at the S280 thread look at how many revisions those guys are doing. I would say no on the money back.

Download this file it is for the 3.5 EcoBoost engine but this is about the code that you have go to page 131.
This is a crazy detailed diagnostic book.

Did they pay to fix your long block?

Btw you would be able to diagnose and tune much easier on a dyno and then tweak it with datalogs. 2 pennies.

I agree but we don't have a tuner for fiestas close enough in Norfolk VA. Also, they are waiting for me to send them the bad parts and I've been really busy. Otherwise they have said in very professional business jargan that mountune stands behind their work.

So looks like I need constant tension hose clamps now... Haha. Second time I've blown them off the housing in 2 days. Also, has anyone measured the outlet side of the x57rs. I'm still using stock hoses and it's a bitch to keep pushing on cuz it's obviously not big enough. If no one gets back to me by the time I leave work today I'll be measuring it with a micrometer and posting it here. Also, any constant tension worm gear brands you guys recommend? I've heard Murray's are pretty good as well as turbosmarts. Also, progress. I talked with the guys over at stratified yesterday. Alex says my volumetric efficiency is off. He had also kindly asked that I don't beat on the car... I really wish it was that easy lol. Anyways there's a big possiblity that I was right in my assessment and due to the uprated cams, it's throwing the p2282 code due to the cams and other sensors not being calibrated with each other. I'll be submitting some logs to him and I'll get back with yall to update. I appreciate everyone's help trying to figure this out. I've learned so much. I will also say, my bank account is looking a little lean since starting this build but I am almost certain I need bigger charge pipes. I may be constructing my own. I also am certain I need a bigger intake so I may be modifying 2js design as well. Their pipe for their intake is like 2.5 inches? I need something like 3.

I have seen in more than one thread that doubling up on the worm gears will work well at holding those hoses on.

Yes, I have as well. I did do this when I had the stockie on but now that I've spent so much on the car I'm kind of wanting to clean it up and make it look good. The 1 hose clamp would be more elegant. I totally agree with you 2 would solve my issue.

Who is going to criticize your under carriage? Just double up and use Hairspray as a lube and adhesive when it dries

First unbuild hose by peron was unsuccessful. So Ron sent me one out for free that was prebuilt. Looks fairly decent. Crimps look solid.

Btw you are only a few hours from CP-E in Spartanburg.

I'm military and my duty station is Norfolk. Since their location is more than 350 miles from my duty station I would have to submit a request to go that far. It's not worth the trouble.

Sorry to hear that. Good luck

So on the 2j intake, they did something that's kind of annoyed me since I bought the intake. They placed the bosses in very bad locations. The heater hose connection goes to the passenger side corner by the passenger side strut tower. The evap hose connection goes right behind the exhaust solenoid. The main problem with the evap hose is that since the connection comes in contact with the exhaust solenoid, this hose has literally melted on multiple occasions(right now it has a smidge of heat tape on it). Maybe I'm missing something but is there any reason I can't blue line these bosses out and reweld them in more suitable locations?
