Ford F-150

STILLEN proudly introduces the expanded TruControl product line, now encompassing over 40 new applications, including popular models from Ford, Honda, Hyundai, Kia, Toyota, and more. This revolutionary plug-and-play solution offers a seamless enhancement to your vehicle’s performance, delivering remarkable power and torque gains without voiding your factory warranty. With our revolutionary technology, we even have the ability to tune cars that come equipped with encrypted ECUs. In this blog post, we’ll explore real-world testing results showcasing the impressive performance gains achieved with TruControl by STILLEN across various vehicles.

How it works:

TruControl by STILLEN stands out as a pinnacle of simplicity and efficiency in aftermarket tuning solutions. Unlike traditional tuning methods that often involve intricate modifications and technical know-how, TruControl offers a hassle-free installation process that requires no soldering, splicing, or specialized tools.

At the heart of TruControl‘s functionality is its plug-and-play design, meticulously engineered to seamlessly integrate with your vehicle’s existing wiring harness. By utilizing factory-style wiring harnesses and matching plugs, TruControl ensures a straightforward installation process that anyone can tackle with ease.

Once installed, TruControl operates as a piggyback tuner, interfacing directly with the factory sensors of your vehicle. It intercepts the data flowing between these sensors and the engine control unit (ECU), allowing for real-time modifications tailored to your specific vehicle through a pre-loaded tune file. This innovative approach empowers TruControl to optimize various engine parameters, such as ignition timing, fueling, and boost pressure, without necessitating any physical alterations to the ECU itself.

One of the key advantages of this data interception method is its non-intrusive nature. While TruControl enhances performance by adjusting critical engine parameters, it does so within the framework of the factory ECU’s safeguards. This means that essential engine protections, including those related to ignition timing tables, fueling, and knock sensors, remain intact, safeguarding your engine against potential damage.

In essence, TruControl serves as a bridge between your vehicle’s sensors and the ECU, enabling precise tuning adjustments that unlock latent power and torque while preserving the integrity of the original engine management system. This seamless integration and performance enhancement make TruControl the ultimate choice for enthusiasts seeking a reliable, warranty-friendly solution to elevate their driving experience.

Meet Paul and Robyn Mullen of Australia, who are taking a neat trip on the historic Route 66 from California to Chicago.  The Mullen’s are recently married, and taking their honeymoon on the road, after purchasing the Ford Mustang we built and hitting the pavement hard on a multi-state US trip!

Paul Mullen and Steve Millen have known each other for years and years, with Paul heading up Black Magic Media, a television production company which has handled coverage on numerous New Zealand Targa Rallies Steve has raced in.

Paul and Robyn are doing an excellent job in capturing their trip, blogging daily about the quirks and interesting things they have discovered along the way, with plenty of pictures as well.  Neat to see the Mustang stretch it’s legs, and get to see it pictured along all of the cool roadside attractions on the nostalgic-ridden Route 66.

This 2007 Mustang features a variety of upgrades, from the Magnuson intercooled supercharger system, AP Racing front and rear big brake kit, STILLEN polyurethane body kit, custom paint and full audio installation, wheels and tires, and Eibach upgraded suspension. Just shows how a properly set up vehicle can have huge increased power, performance and handling, and still be qualified for long trips and remain comfortable and fun to drive.

We encourage you to follow along in their journey, it looks like a blast!
