Hypertech is not new to the game and they are familiar with Ford’s PCM factory tunes and can (and have) offered varieties of safe aftermarket tunes for the Mustang platform for MANY years. Hypertech was also very well known on the largest Mustang website of the time period on (where I’m still a member today). in the 1986 Mustang, you would have already known that Hypertech was THE pioneer and first to bring the “tuning chip” to the Mustang platform. I was also going to reply that if anyone on this site was around during the original Mustang “5.0” movement, meaning, the introduction of the EFI 5.0 H.O. Glad you’re on the site and appreciate the very detailed responses from the Tuning Manager! I'm not against offering the option, but I'm not sure that's the right fix for a PCV issue. We didn't see that issue with the EcoBoost Mustang, so we didn't include the option in the ME2.0. On a related note, our MazdaSpeed 3 tunes do allow those vehicles to adjust the idle speed, but that was only to eliminate the resonance of the engine inside the vehicle. I'm sure you know this, but figured it was worth mentioning for anyone else who is curious. That should stop once the engine and exhaust piping is warm though. This is much more noticeable with a high flow cat or catless downpipe. Another thing to note is that you will get condensation vapors coming out of the exhaust when the engine and exhaust piping are cool. Checking shaft play on the turbo, and for oil residue in the charge piping would verify that the turbo is okay. I would assume that these fixed the smoke issue on your car unless you have a damaged turbo. I see that you have the UPR DVCC and their breather cap as well. A more permanent solution would be to add a catch can to separate the oil from the PCV return to the intake. That won't be necessarily be fixed by raising the idle. I can see how that would be a bandaid fix for the smoking, but the real issue is that the engine is ingesting oil and water vapor that creates smoke in the exhaust. Raising the idle would decrease the vacuum which would decrease the effectiveness of the PCV system.

We spent several months tuning this car, but we may not have had the time with the mods to notice the idle smoke issue you're mentioning.

The Hypertech Max Energy will then reset your vehicle's on-board computer to the stock programming and the programmer will reset itself to the factory default settings.Good question! Although we did mod our test vehicle with full exhaust and high flow catted downpipe we didn't see any issues with smoke at idle. The programmer will turn on and a message will appear on its screen reading, "To Return Vehicle to Factory Settings, Press Y. Insert the key in the ignition and turn it to the run position.
If you need to take your car to a mechanic for repairs, you'll need to reset your car's computer, which also resets the Hypertech Max Energy back to factory settings.Ĭonnect one end of the provided cable to the Hypertech Max Energy programmer and the other end to the diagnostic port located under the driver's side of the dash. You can also use it to read and clear diagnostic trouble codes, such as the "Check Engine Light" or "Service Needed" messages.

It also calibrates your speedometer, which is useful if you install tires that are larger or smaller than the original factory tires. The Hypertech Max Energy is a hand-held programming device that plugs into your car's computer to tune its performance, increasing engine efficiency and horsepower to improve fuel mileage.
