Any updates?

Interested to know what causes the large amount of exhaust crackle on these engines. I usually like it on other cars, every coyote ive heard including mine sounds so poppy and tinny on deceleration its just not a nice sound. One or two crackles is nice, but coyotes seem to do a couple a second. Mines just a cat back but ive heard cars with full systems the same. Also on my standard tune it does it alot less. Would be interested to know. Cheers

KPM, would you care to give a rough estimate of what sort of price your talking about here. I'm a coyote owner that isnt really interested in huge gains from cams purely just a little bit of sound and I would be prepared to pay a decent figure for it. I've noticed a video on youtube of the fg street fighter filmed at a service station and it seemed to have a nice idle. Feel free to PM me. Im just interested to know either way.

It is a cheap eBay connector I'll try a genuine cheers The connector works when charging the phone with the USB wall charger. Strange

Hi all, ive had my fg for a while with my old iphone 4 and never had an issue with car charging and music playing. However I just bought an iphone 5, I figured buying a 8 - 30 pin connector and putting it on the end of the factory iphone cable shouldn't be a drama. But I get no charge and no music. Am I missing something here? Thanks.

Does anyone know where the best place is to get some BBS Wheels? Im looking for a set of CX-R's 20 x 8.5 fronts and I have a choice of 20x9 or 20x10 rears. Im guessing a +35 offset for the 8.5 rims. Would that be that same for the rears?

It seems every owner wants cams (or ecu lumpy idle) me included. Maybe if everyone hits up their tuners about what can be done, we could drive abit of interest into the subject. And get someone of their bum to find a sollution. I get the impression that most tuners out there are only interested in fitting their intercoolers and fuel systems to boost the power up and they believe that people wont pay for the cammed idle if there isnt a big power increase. I for one would be happy to pay up to 5 grand for that sound as long as there is no power drop I dont even care about a power increase. In my eyes a blown v8 with 550+rwhp car should sound like its off its head! I'm considering an ecu change to something that can control both inlet and exhaust timing, I'm yet to talk to a tuner about it though

Thanks a lot really good information. 5 grand would be about my limit. Anything over that wouldn't really be worth it just for sound. So I guess buying the unit and 3 or 4 days labour would be around that mark. Is there any power to be gained playing around with vct

Thanks for the info. How much work is involved in changing the ecu over and retuning everything. Couple of days for a reputable tuner ?

Is this to much to ask!

So I guess my question is, Is it possible and how big of a job is it. Will something like a motec m84 do it?

Simple and fair question. Over exagerated and arrogant answer

As far as I've heard they cant adjust the exhaust timing, making aftermarket cams pretty much un tuneable and ghost cam tunes arent possible. Correct me if im wrong but I though that's why tuners such as herrod have failed in their efforts in cam development?

Has anyone gone down the path of an aftermarket ecu for vct control on the coyote yet? 550hp with no aggressive idle just doesnt do it for me anymore. Is there any options out there ECU wise that will be able to control cams or even just do a 'ghost cam tune' like the mustang guys are getting.

Yeah not a fan of panda eyes myself either. Surely theres a few cars on here getting around with them ??
