Turbocharged Coyote/6R80 Swap, Build/Discussion Thread, Pics, info inside!

The WOT shift points are correct, as this is an F150 ECU. All the ones I've driven at work, shift around 6k.

The Tow/Haul schedule is selected by a momentary ground input to the PCM on the Tow/Haul pin, so by default, it uses the normal shift scheduling unless it sees a momentary ground on that pin, and always reverts to 'Normal' shift pattern when the key is cycled.

And you are correct, I usually use the O/D button for my Tow/Haul button on the swaps, which allows me to have two shift schedules. Usually, I use the Tow/Haul to create a 'Roll Race' schedule, wherein it holds every gear until the shift point regardless of throttle position, yet still upshifts automatically under WOT.

Good question!

I thought in town haul mode the shift points were moved up a few rpm, among other things.

I understand that it has the F150 shift schedule that isn't designed for the mustangized power curve and definitely needs to be optimized for this application and without being CAFE friendly as a main priority.

One would think so, but it does not appear so on the F150. Here's the stock 'Normal Mode' vs. 'Tow/Haul' tables. As you can see, the WOT shift MPH is the same, and mid throttle are within .5 MPH give/take:

Here is another screenshot showing that the stock F150 tune even fails the MAF above 6k:

The Coyote F150 never sees above 6k all stock. The only reason I was operating this setup with the stock tune, was to prove out the combo and find any initial weak areas or problems that might have cropped up. After about 100 miles of torture, no issues/leak or problems to report!

I've just about completed the Hybrid F150/Mustang tune, and i'll get some video. Looks like early next week at this point due to my schedule this weekend.

:banana:
 
Well, hit a snag in the tuning! Figured out why I cannot get the shifts over about 6200....there is a parameter missing from the F150 tunes that caps the limiter there. It is available to modify in the Mustang ECU's via HPT, but not F150.

I've been in communication with Eric about the issue, and he said there will be a fix by the end of this week.

Here's a link to the discussion on the HPT forum, complete with some scanner screen shots and logs I did:

There is that problem with the Marauder computer too at 7k. :( Unless you turn off the injector cuttoff for no limiters at all.
 
Eric got the tables added in for us! That was fast!

I should be back on the car next week at this point due to my schedule currently, we'll take this back up then.

Dayum - that kicks like a mule! nice sonding N/A car - will you be getting a baseline E.T. with the car pre forced induction?

Thank you! Yes, I plan on making some N/A passes once she's all ready.

Got the A/C blowing ice today! Also added a fitting badge:

Now that I'm back from vacation, and the revv limiter is fixed, I can get going with the final tuning and shift points.
 
Awesome build...so clean! This may sound dumb, but if one just wanted to swap in the truck 5.0 and keep its more torque-biased cams and tune, that'd still be a nice-performing Panther, correct?
