BDAZLA Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 I am aware that to change from the FGX XR6 Turbo to the Sprint tune that there are also hardware differences. It requires an F6 turbo, Intercooler and Injectors. My question is, Are all the FG MK1/MK2/FGX Sprint turbos the same? I know they are all the 3582 but is there any difference in the wastegate port size or the actuator spring size? Ideally I have all the parts already and would simply need to swap those hardware items over and the create the tune so that it is the Sprint tune, flash it into the car and away I go but I am unsure in particular about the actuator springs. Does anyone know if the actuator springs are all same part number and if there are and variances in the port sizing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roland@pcmtec Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Unsure of the answer however either way I would not recommend simply swapping the tune without putting it on a dyno. The sprint runs very rich (to protect the cat) and imo has too much timing. The F6 tune is imo a better base if you put it on a dyno. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BDAZLA Posted July 18, 2020 Author Share Posted July 18, 2020 Hmm yeah true, I never thought of putting the F6 tune in. I think I like that option better to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF anyone doesn’t know the actuator springs are all The same part number and there are no variances in the port sizing and all difference’s are from Target and Duty cycle changes plus some gain tweaks on the closed loop area.

Romulus Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 With all due respect, HAER1UB is a junk tune. Any tuner who's had a good look at this calibration will see it for the crap it is. The ZF transmission calibration looks like it's been slapped together with the limited funding Ford had for development. Stick with HAEK4PE if your car is an auto, it's a much better calibration. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After speaking to some people this was absolutely the case, very limited budget. The F6 stuff was done by different calibrators and there was a bit of competition with Ford which is why it is apparently so good. This is all second hand info though, and I'm not a tuner so I can't really judge the tune like some can though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
