Another LPF Twin Turbo 5.0

[08StangGT_CS]

Got my car back about two weeks ago. All I can say is wow. It's a monster. Usually keep it on low boost since that's enough to light them up. I've upgraded to 345s rear but haven't tried to push those yet.

Congrats! Lpf makes a nice low mount kit and I was highly considering them when I was headed that direction. Now get a rear drag setup on the car and go get kicked out of the track lol

I have only heard great things about this setup. There is a lot of super fast cars with this setup but would like to heart from guys that have had it sometime and daily there cars.

Congrats how much boost was on the 850 pull and how do you find the turbo response between gear changes with the manual trans is it quick to recover from the rpm drop or is there a delay in power when you put your foot back into it.

Lol. Thanks. Been wanting to do this but I don't go to the racetrack enough to justify the expense. Your setup looks good though.

congrats man!

Thank you sir.

Mines more of a daily than anything else. First two weeks of ownership we've been having non stop drizzle. Hasn't stopped me from using the car at all. If I keep the rpm's low it drives just like stock.

Thanks. The last pull was close to 14 psi max. I'm not the best manual driver so take my input with a grain of salt. My tires also don't allow much as I shift 1-2 and I'm already at max rpm. I also started to experience the dreaded 3rd gear lockout when trying to shift at high rpm. I didn't want to buy an aftermarket shifter but I think I will have to now.

Not being able to get it into gear, isn't your transmission or shifter. It's the pressure plate not releasing...

Isn't it a known thing that the transmission torques and it doesn't allow you to go into gear? It only happens going 2-3. I had that issue with my old NA coyote and solved it with an MGW.

If it is the torque plate not releasing, what would be causing it?

I'll let someone else chime-in, and I guess it's possible, but just not my experience. Does the clutch pedal feel weird after you get locked out of 3rd? Like half way down and then you pump it and feels normal again?

Also, why would you only get locked out at high rpm's? Tranny should be torqued over at any rpm under load.
