Dave Dalke of the SCCoA made a few custom 1.7L AutoRotor kits for the Super Coupes. I picked one of 'em up a while ago and it finally got installed on the weekend of May 21/22. On the 23rd we hit up Crazy Horse in South Amboy, NJ to get it tuned. The vid is of the dyno performance. You'll all be pleased with the numbers :)

The car is a 93 Thunderbird Super Coupe with a 3.8l V6. Major mods are the autorotor, p&p heads, front mount IC, 90mm lmaf, 85mm tb, 60lb injectors, and full exhaust

This is my first attempt at making a video, too, btw.

Lemme know what ya think.

HOLLY CRAP!! Very nice!! Im VERY impressed with the results. Especially the torque numbers are insane! I dont know what else you have done to it but some nice suspension and good tires and that would be one hell of a driver! Looks like the paint may be in the near future too. lol.

btw, Pretty good first video I might add.

Of course! hahaha.

As for paint, there's a new decklid on there now that's much better condition than the one that you see in the video. And as we speak, I'm in the process of replacing the front end due to an idiot friend. But there's a plus side to it: I'll have an 89 SC front bumper with the embossed SC on it :D

Suspension is next on the list. I have a set of Eibach's and KYB shocks sitting on the shelf at home. Just need to make time for it. Also, I'm running Dunlop Direzza's on the 18s on there now. Not ideal for the track, exactly, but I'll be borrowing some slicks most likely when I take it to the track.

Very nice. That will be a VERY fun car when all is said and done. Put some bigger sway bars on it and see if you can get it trested on a 300ft. skidpad for the lateral accelation numbers. Would LOVE to see those too.

the full list of mods is in the video.

as for changing the speed limiter, you'll need a chip to do that.
