Evolution
FORD 4.6 and 5.4 Liter
7
Tow Performance Program (87+ octane fuel)
This setting not only provides improved transmission shifting, but will also
modify the ignition timing and fuel injection strategies to improve the
performance of your vehicle. This level is designed to run with 87 octane
fuel, although you may realize additional benefits by running 89 octane (or
better) fuel. You should see an improvement in fuel economy as well as
added horsepower and torque. This level is recommended for most towing
situations.
WARNING Do not exceed your vehicle’s max GVWR as outlined in the vehicle’s
owner’s manual. Doing so may result in loss of vehicle control and cause bodily injury.
High Performance Program (91+ octane fuel)
This is the highest performance setting for the
Evolution
. The fuel injection
and ignition timing strategies are aggressively tuned to extract the maximum
performance from your vehicle without sacrificing drivability or durability.
The transmission strategy is modified in this level to take advantage of the
increased engine performance by providing quicker, and firmer shifts.
Due to the high performance nature of this setting, towing or hauling heavy
loads is not recommended and you will be required to run 91 octane (or
better) fuel.
Power Gains
The following power gains are representative of an actual test vehicle. These
gains were measured on a Super Flow Dyno at an altitude of 4400 Ft. above
sea level, and represent power delivered to the rear wheels of the test truck.
The only modification made to the test truck was the addition of the
Evolution. Power gains may vary somewhat on a different vehicle or in
different geographic settings.
