Mace VE V6 Tune Review

[MACE]

Is this the one you mentioned here?

Correct

Thought I'd pop up a new 0-100 with the OTR and E85. Is hard to see much difference between both the 0-100 vids I have up but it is definately quicker now. Even if I started in second gear it would be nearly as quick to 100....heaps more torque. Reckon it is just a tad over 6 seconds even with the overrev at top of range. Need to go back to getting it to shift a little earlier (about 300RPM) with next tune update as the extra RPM doesn't seem to be that effective.

Edit: Just had another look at this on the video timer...looks more like 6.5 seconds. Bit dissapointing...not much quicker than stock times. Perhaps it's a practice thing?

I dare say you would need more practice Jarp, no offense

On the note of launching these things we can now organise Hi Stall torque converters for them now

None taken Steve..bit of a hard thing to prac safely and without attention. Think it would be between 6.2 and 6.4 if get it right. Maybe even 6.1 downwind and a prayer.

Thanks for the update Jarp.
I don`t think I will go down that track atm. have to get the car first.
CAI and tune will do me after I drive it for awhile.
Don`t worry Steve I haven`t gone away yet lol.

Jarp, would the diff gears have anything to do with it? 0-100 would probs be 3 gear changes opposed to 2 with the stock diff?

Yeah I think so Kuzman in this clip is changing 2nd to 3rd at about 94km/h...should be able to get to 100k in 2nd though as is supposed be revving to 7k. Was one hand on the camera the other steering and only a couple of runs on a 30 odd degrees day so need to prac some more or just stick it down the 1/4. Still just a tad over 6 seconds not bad for an auto and it is great down low with the diff and E85 combo. Bring on the cam or S/C though...want more Either that or wait for the DI V8.

Hm.. im thinkin about doing the E85...

As soon as I get the tune onto my car hopefully i get to a dyno..

Lets see the difference between E85 and unleaded
