Mystique 2018 GT PPL1

[Ghost.5.0]

How much nvh is added due to this? Very interesting upgrade.

No NVH at all. With binding being corrected, more feel with the car in reference to point and shoot, steering and compliance have greatly been approved. I'm big advocate for strengthening suspension and driver skills prior to adding more power. Getting some suspension work and 100TW tires will greatly improve the performance of a vehicle.

Can has been handling great on my spirited drives in Texas, however just gets too damn hot. And not having gone to the track yet this year, I know it's going to over heat. So radiator is going on at the same time the diff is ready. 220 degrees on a 115 degree day there is only 30 degrees to play with until limp mode from what I understand. There was also an update for the PCM the dealership had to do, so I think I'm going to re-flash the Magna Ride VDM this week.

A 93 tune and flex fuel (which I may scratch and get a dedicated E85) tune is ready, however still waiting on the JLT intake to come in. Wanted to do a closed CAI, but I didn't like the fitment of one of them. More updates to come.
