  1. The all encompassing brake setup for track use thread.

    I think the GT350 kit is going to be in my future soon.
  2. My KPM800 track test (KPM 800HP Track Pack Fuel Pump)

    Do you have personal experience tracking a boosted Mustang? I do and it doesn't go well. Several other members have had the same experience. The issue w/a Centri is 1. Massive heat generation. 2. a big ass intercooler placed directly in front of the cooling stack which causes a reduction in...
  3. Tires for Whipple gt

    Because you seem to think it is impossible to drive any type of car with forced induction in cold temps if they are on anything less than an all season. I am trying to explain that my experience shows otherwise. You also seem to think that throttle modulation in these cars is an "all or...
  4. The all encompassing brake setup for track use thread.

    Let's talk about one of the most important consumable part when tracking your car. Brakes. I am curious as to what you use. If you could, please indicate what you have. Car (year, make, model): Calipers: Rotors: Deflectors: Fluid: Pad (F/R) Shims: Likes/dislikes about your setup and what...
  5. Budget rain/street tire

    Another vote for the ECS02 or the G-Max RS. I have used both and they do well in rain. The 555G2 is pure dog crap everywhere, and worse in the rain.

    Yes, I do know what torque various stages of a Whipple make. Are you aware there are other brands and types of superchargers? A centri doesn't make torque until higher in the powerband either. My Procharged 2016 drove like stock until I got above 3500 rpm. Driving carefully means keeping...

    My 2016Procharged GT was right at 550 rwhp. According to MT, a 2019 GT350 made 494rwhp. That's why I added the adjective "almost". And I doubt his car is stock. https://www.motortrend.com/news/2019-ford-mustang-shelby-gt350-dyno-results Boilerplate? Absolutely. That phrase is found on a lot...

    No, @NightmareMoon has a Voodoo swapped GT that probably puts out almost as much power as a supercharged car. Good thing tirerack said I can use the AO52's in temps down to 14 degrees. That should keep my attorney happy if that happens. Again, here is the link to that fact...
  9. Tires for Whipple gt

    Show me where I said that. I have been saying that the ECS02, or even a 200TW tire CAN BE USED in cold temps. Are they ideal? No. But if driven correctly, they can be used. You are being a troll. Nothing more. That's why Nightmare called you a dick.

    Ok.....if we ever see sub 32 temps in Oklahoma again I will put on my Potenza RE71RS tires on, mount my Go Pro 360 and take some videos of how well they CAN be in cold temps, as long as you aren't a dumbass. I'll post it to my youtube page and be sure to tag you.

    Then you push the pedal to the left of the gas pedal. Again....this is not difficult. Conti ECS02's work just fine in the cold. As I stated before, would I drive on them in the ice or snow? No. I have 3 other vehicles for that.
  12. Mach II?

    One of the most quotable movies! And my 2nd favorite baseball movie, after The Sandlot.
  13. Tires for Whipple gt

    Agree. I have driven my procharged 2016 GT w/ECS02 tires in sub 32F temps. Zero issues as long as I drove conservatively. Now if there is snow or ice on the ground....hell no.
  14. Tires for Whipple gt

    Those are the stock Pirelli tires, which anyone who has had them on their cars knows, suck as bad as the 555 G2s. Anything below 40 and the rubber hardens and becomes useless. We are talking about the AO52's that NightMare mentioned. Yokohama says they can be driven in much colder temps...
  15. Tires for Whipple gt

    I agree. Common sense goes a long way with this type of issue. If you have these tires and it is cold........DON'T FLOOR IT. Drive conservatively. Too bad common sense really is not all that common.
