Hey guys,
Ok so I have done a search on Fordmods but not been able to find exactly what I am after so here goes, In my EF XR6, I have just recently converted to 5sp Manual (what a job!!) XR6 manual ECU, Wade 1673 Cam, Coby extractors+zorst done and hi flow simota panel filter. (am in process of upgrading intake pipe) Now after installing the cam the revs hang a wee bit as I have read in other forums Im not the only one and have a few ideas up my sleeve to try and remody this, BUT I am looking at getting a J3 chip as its not that expensive, So my questions are: Is it worth getting the J3 Chip and if so should I get a custom tuned one? Will the chip eliminate the rev hang or should i try my ideas that Ive read up on (gasket with smaller holes etc) And finally once I get the chip how do i install it? Does it just plug in somewhere?? Cheers for your time guys appreciate it.

Try the gasket! I installed an AU motor in my ED and the bastad would hang at 3000RPM when you rolled to a stop, I made a new gasket and replaced the ICS and problem gone! well sort of, it idles at 1000RMP and sometimes hangs at 1500RPM but its MUCH better than before!
Having said that, a J3 Chip will help you get the most out of the cam.

Manual falcons are prone to rev hang, so either run the ISC unplugged (turn up base idle) or try the gasket trick.
I would get a J3 with a custom tune anyway. |

Ok so I tried the old Gasket trick, fixed it a little bit but it still hangs round 1200-1400ish, but when its in gear sits where it should round 700...hmm got the J3 custom chip on its way but stupid me wasnt thinking last night and i dont think theres anybody over here that is able to tune them... FML
