Purchased AccessTuner Race yesterday...Fairly straight forward and relatively easy to use....However, still quite a bit to learn and sort through which is the fun part!
Already began by generating 5-way map switching for various ethanol blends...I'm starting off conservatively here using Cobb's OTS stg3 as the base map with slight changes made to stoich, fuel targets, global timing, boost targets depending on ethanol percentage and will refine further after more data is logged...Still very much a work in progress...
And special thanks to Razor for posting a general outline in link below...

sorry to hear Ed...
So far mine are holding up very very well....Did you follow their instructions and slightly heat the badges up with a hair dryer prior to install? This makes removal from the protective backing easier and will also prevent edge peeling damage during removal from the backing...once installed they seem very durable...

Yea I heated it up, but maybe not enough. This always happens to me though. I'm so anxious when I get new mods that I usually mess something up at first lol. Overall though, they give the car a great look! That blue ford logo just seemed out of place ![[???:)]](/images/smilies/confused.gif "Really Confused [???:)]")

LED Fog Lamps Installed
Just finished installation of LED fog lamps...
I chose 5K "bright white" LEDs as I didn't want any blue tint to the light...The intensity and brightness is a major improvement over the standard halogen's...Also these LED produce very low heat and will not discolor or damage the light tint film I currently have placed over my fog lenses for protection....

List of materials used (with sources):
(2) Stainless Steel Worm Clamps ($0.99 ea)
http://www.siliconeintakes.com/liqui...ps-p-1038.html
(1) 1.25" ID / 3" long 4 ply Silicone Hose ($4.99ea)
http://www.siliconeintakes.com/silic...ses-p-479.html
(1) 32mm Blanking Plug ($6.45 ea)
http://www.summitracing.com/parts/TBS-TS-0205-2015
It was a tight fit on the charge pipe end but still worked quite well....I also reduced the length of silicone hose from 3" to 2" to keep it short and clean looking...I thought using a 38mm dia plug would be a bit too large after measuring the port on the charge pipe but seeing how tight the fit was during install I think in hindsight I would go with a 38mm blanking plug and 1.5" diameter silicone hose...
