On my Turbo 88, I originally had the FPR and MAP tee'd to the same reference point on the intake. I found the FPR was actually causing my MAP pressure to bounce up and down. Basically the FPR was causing a flutter on the hose to the MAP. I separated them and it's smooth now.
It's videos like this, that make me want to ship you my '18, with a briefcase of cash in the trunk. Give you two months and make it what you'd like. LOL!
So AF was good when you did that pull with the vacuum line pulled off the regulator? I would think it would go lean since the regulator wouldn't be able to increase fuel pressure without that vacuum line on it.
Good video..….Got a question, where would be the best place to get a vacuum\boost reference signal in the intake manifold from? Would it be the closest port that is just downstream of the throttle body butterflies (the EVAP or PCV port), or the farthest port away (brake booster)? Got me to thinking bout this since the vacuum\boost reference source on the 3v's returnless fuel system FPR is usually coming from the brake booster line that is coming out the rear port of the intake manifold. I would think that for fastest signal response time closest to the TB is best, but maybe it's better for signal stability (less signal fluctuation) to get it from the port farthest away from the TB (assuming this due to Ford choosing the rear IM port to take vacuum/boost reference). Is there any testing results to confirm or deny this? I have noted that w\ the Coyote all vacuum\boost reference for any\all controls are coming from the front of IM just aft of the TB......
I have a gen 1 5.0 tuned from Lund, I have a gen 2 with about 11-12lbs I’d boost and NO boost reference on the regulator with psi set at 59-60. So with boost I’m seeing 45ish on my gauge. Why wouldn’t JR tell me to hook up the reference? At the end of the day the rail pressure would be roughly the same I guess
i was just about to go fore return system on mine. thanks for clarifying this before i did the swap. since ill be running a mechanical regulator i would assume on the tune i just flatline the voltage and rail pressure correct?
Do you think a single regulator return system works ok on the 18 im in the process of setting mine up for e85 and a whipple ,Jon said he preferred a return system but I didn't ask on the single regulator
Does that 3V utilize a MAF setup or Speed Density? I know that Ford Racing intake manifold has a mounting bracket for a MAP sensor incase someone wanted to run a speed density setup.
Yo man i got a question for you, which would be a better platform to start off with?? An 07 Gt500 or a 08 Roush 427r with their supercharger.... Both are about the same price, practically i would be paying for the amount of mileage they have
hey alejandro, I'm trading my low mile 2003 cobra for a 2011 gt500 with 60k miles, both are full bolt ons I'm adding 6k cash on top, what do you think?
That car is badass...for lack of a better word
Alex I love how you want an informed customer you give service with a smile
That beast is so loud, great informative video once again.
Lesson learned: Never start that car inside the garage!! Good job Alex.
Those red race valves also use a rubber diaphragm that wear out over time. Keep that in mind with cars that use them.
Most informative guy on RUclips!
This car is cooler to me than a boosted coyote car, love it
Very informative. Well done.
And, your black s197 Coyote GT w/ the VMP gen 2 is missed. Simple, fun car that worked.

Agreed
Alejandro the Best 👍

Yes sir, i suspect it's the same issue on this guy. Congrats on the 7! BTW
@@YDBT4LIFE Thanks!
Definitely want that map on its own!
"For lack of better word " tshirt please!!!
Lack of better word " Alex is a Wizard of motors"
Hoa our condo complex must luv you. That car sounds good
Love the video man, very informative like always

Fuck I love the feeling of figuring out a problem child car. Especially when you weren't the one that set it up in the first place 😉

Excellent info!!
Nice mustang how do you like that boosted 3v is it comparable to a coyote set up?
Lol that reaction to start up 😂
Rmmmm swush , Rmmmm swush LOL, That Alex is smart cookie 😂
I’m surprised you haven’t lost your voice making videos w/ this mustang 😂😂

rule #1 boost gauges and references ALWAYS need a dedicated vacuum. same for fuel pressure regulators

For a 3 valve it sounds awesome
Thank God it's not another "Buff Guy" chronicles 🤣
Alex think you’ll do any Small Block Ford related videos?
i was just about to go fore return system on mine. thanks for clarifying this before i did the swap. since ill be running a mechanical regulator i would assume on the tune i just flatline the voltage and rail pressure correct?
Maybe it’s time to increase your vocabulary so you are no longer lacking better words 😜
Good vid bruh.
Any resolution to that misfire issue? I'm dealing with something similar on my turbo 3v setup.

Alex quick question will a cobra jet manifold fit my 2016 GT ?
*Post 32* 3V BreastBoost
Where do YOU get your boost from?

Gt500 by a longshot
Why you asking questions you know the answer to

Kevin Alvarez keep the cobra!!!
dude start doing LS videos again 3v sucks worse
