For those of you whose car did not come with an HC trap, I have mine to sell to the highest bidder. PM me...

Put it on eBay; I bet you'll sell it to someone.

This should be interesting. My K&N is in the mail, have not looked but since mine is a January build, I as assuming I have the HC. I will make the assumption that the stock tune without the HC is different that those with the trap.

Opinions?

Mine was built 4/27, and I bet there is not one in it either. Putting on the JLT in a few days, so I'll check then.
Put on the JLT today, no carbon trap. 4/27 build.

Checked Stangnut's, and his HAD one, but we took it out.

Since Ford is saving pennies on these, maybe they would take mine back for a credit towards the FRPP catalog?

Ditto.

I knew my 'Stang felt about 8 hp stronger than I thought it should stock.

Hey, I'm with stupid is a little harsh, but I resemble that remark!

Mine was built 05/14/05 too!

Saturday Sisters !

Do cars built on Saturdays have more issues or more power ? It used to be that a Monday, Wednesday or Friday built car carried a stigma .

Where does a Saturday built car fit in :scratch: ?

Sorry - it's the only smiley with an up arrow... no offense intended

Yeah, I had originally thought mine was build on FRIDAY May 13TH!! - :bang: Woulda been a bad omen, I think. I would have had to name her something goth, I think. Thankfully, she's "Lucy."

I wonder if the engine management software is different on the cars without the traps?

Why don't you guys post your computer codes. That way we can tell if the programming changed when they deleted the HC trap.

It looks like they stopped putting them in the 2nd week of April. So if your build date was April 11th or later you shouldn't have the HC trap from the factory.

It's in the engine compartment passenger side. There will be a white sticker on the computer.

Something like DUR3 or DUR2. I'm curious now weather the DUR2 is with the filter and the DUR3 is without. Haven't looked at mine yet. Got mine in November 2004.
