zedman Member 64 Member For: 18y 9m 27d Posted 13/12/06 12:44 PM Share Posted 13/12/06 12:44 PM Hi AllI have a BA T Auto. I put in a K&N Filter, went great, no problems. Removed the centre muffler and sounded great and ran a bees dick better, so, I bought a APS rear muffler section, which I bolted on today. Left my mates work shop and it was missing under load and was taking ages to find a gear on gear down. SO WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED. I am guessing the computer is freaking out and I will need to do something to fix it. I am putting on a SS CAI and was going to change the plug (was told I need to when running the capa) and I will be doing a capa flash tune. So has anyone had this problem and do they know whats happening and what the best remedy is.Also, with the capa, should I do a dyno tune and how much am I looking at for that if I already have the capa.Thanks guysAnt Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/31114-help-with-mods-needed/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its weird, all my other cars I've owned you just wack on an exhaust and feel the power in a positive way. These ECU's on this machine are very strange.Zedman Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/31114-help-with-mods-needed/#findComment-476359 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate to hear a topic started by you, with something like "My engine went Bang", "were can I get it rebuilt cheaply?".Scotty Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/31114-help-with-mods-needed/#findComment-480449 Share on other sites More sharing options...
zedman Member 64 Member For: 18y 9m 27d Posted 24/12/06 02:45 PM Author Share Posted 24/12/06 02:45 PM I changed the plugs and its stopped missing down low so much. It seems to be running ok now, but I will be doing the Capa custom tune soon, so till then I will take it easy.Anthony Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/31114-help-with-mods-needed/#findComment-480591 Share on other sites More sharing options...
