  1. Front inner tire wear after lowering

    Mine is not lowered and my fronts still wear like this. My local Ford dealer Service Department says they see that on all Mustangs they service. They recommend an alignment and balance every year. My rear tires and wheels are wider than my fronts, so no rotation is available for me. I just...
  2. Edelbrock E-Force Troubleshooting Manual

    Mine sounded like this, but at a higher pitch, and it was a defective idler. I can't remember which one. I replaced it and the sound went away. I used an old broomstick with the rounded end on my ear and the other on the bolt that holds the idler in place. I checked all the other idlers and it...
  3. Do I really need the Performance Package?

    Mine doesn't have the PP or the MagnaRide. 401a, A10, Digital Dash, Security System, BLIS and Adaptive Cruise Control. Comfortable and fast. I'm not a Road Racer, so I don't miss the upgraded suspension. I installed GT350 Half Shafts and some Steeda IRS parts without creating any extra...
  4. Axle back exhaust suggestions

    It's mostly a Daily Driver that will see occasional drag strip use in the Spring and Fall. Since mine is a Convertible, my local track requires a Roll Cage. I have one on order that should be here in about 4 weeks or so. I'm hoping to get into the 10's even at my high altitude. I have GT350...
  5. Axle back exhaust suggestions

    A little, not as much as I expected though. It's in the area of around 10rwhp +/- for me. One phenomenon of the cutouts being open is that my boost lowers from around 9psi to 8.5psi. I've seen this phenomenon at dyno days when boosted cars are run through their full exhaust and then with...
  6. Axle back exhaust suggestions

    Pics are attached as requested. Two issues with the audio request. One, my right side cutout valve has burned out. This is normal. I got over 3 years out of it and I have a replacement on the way that is easy to install. Two, even when I do get the cutout replaced, idle and low rpm are all...
  7. Axle back exhaust suggestions

    I had 3" MBRP Street on a 2015 that had a deep tone and didn't drone. Stock manifolds and cats on that car with resonator delete. My current 2018 car has Long Tubes, no cats and a resonator delete with stock axle-backs. Nice deep tone at idle, low and moderate cruising speeds with zero drone...
  8. Edelbrock E-Force Troubleshooting Manual

    I use 5w50 full synthetic from Ford. My dealer does it...
  9. Edelbrock E-Force Troubleshooting Manual

    Mine looked like that too. No big deal. The gap of the contact surface, no matter how small in area, is what really matters...
  10. Edelbrock E-Force Troubleshooting Manual

    On mine, I have long tube headers that have front O2 fittings and a mid-pipe that has rear O2 fittings. No codes and I passed emissions for New Mexico...
  11. Edelbrock E-Force Troubleshooting Manual

    They required the same for me. Plus, they wanted at least 2020 GT500 injectors and a BAP. I already had a VMP BAP lying around gathering dust. The injectors were easy to find and inexpensive insurance. I also already had the FRP brand of the NGK 6510 spark plugs that came with the kit. I...
  12. Edelbrock E-Force Troubleshooting Manual

    I have to go with Lund. I tried others, but they couldn't tune out the surging and jerking at part-throttle acceleration. Now, Lund didn't tune it ALL the way out, but it's really close and very predictable on the street. Can't go around driving WOT all the time. Lol...
  13. If you could build it all over again?

    I would have gone with the Hellion Twin Turbo Street Sleeper kit, instead of the Edelbrock E-Force 2650 Stage-1 Supercharger kit. The Edelbrock has really been a pain. Worst forced induction setup that I've ever installed or used...
  14. Supercharger Supporting Mods?

    GT350 Half Shafts are relatively cheap insurance for a boosted Coyote, especially a manual transmission car. I installed mine for some peace of mind. I used some Steeda parts to stop any possible wheel hop. Did long tubes, bigger port injectors, a VMP BAP and a Steeda driveshaft safety loop...
  15. Edelbrock E-Force Troubleshooting Manual

    This Eddy has had more than it's share of problems throughout the past 3 years. Bucking, jerking and surging at moderate part throttle took 2 tuners and forever to tame enough to make the car tolerable as a daily. Never went away completely. Lund figured it out more than anybody else. Had that...
  16. Edelbrock E-Force Troubleshooting Manual

    HELP OK, hoping someone on this thread may have some insight into my problem. Loss of power and rough idle with a muffled dead but louder exhaust note that sounds as though a cylinder or two is not firing. She also runs significantly hotter than normal. I'm usually around 181F, but now...
  17. Boosted Car Peeps - Do You Advertise It Or Not

    I like them more than I thought I would. It's kind of the best of both worlds. When open, the cutouts give it a definite racecar roar. It's a very tuned roar as well, since I have long tubes. It's not just loud for loudness' sake. It's really sweet at high rpm where it sounds like a NASCAR...
  18. Boosted Car Peeps - Do You Advertise It Or Not

    I keep mine as stock-looking as possible. Just an old retired fat guy puttering around in a Convertible with the top down. Still has the stock axle backs and is relatively quiet when the cutouts are closed. Fooled more than my share of Hellcats that way. Just flip a switch to open the...
  19. My Tips For Fitting Vertical Links.

    The best guide for this procedure that I have read. It would have saved me much time and effort when I did mine. Ask me how I know. Lol...
  20. Steeda Subframe Brace 0-60 Improvement

    Yeah, my daily rear wheels are 10" wide with 305/35R19 summer tires and I have an additional 10" wide set with the same size drag radials. No stopping the daily summer tires from spinning even at part throttle, but the drag radials stick like glue on a prepared track, after warming them up in...
