I removed mine, and my car is an S197. I will be honest, I rarely noticed anything from a DD perspective and my car was BONE STOCK when I bought it. But again, I don't go to the road course and push my car in the corners and my experiences may differ to an S550 without the front bar. Mine was...
It's all bullshit....and y'all are buying it. Do you know what really needs to be done? The Clean Air Act needs to be repealed by Congress in its entirety and a new common sense law re-written that is applicable to the USA in 2026...not the 70s. Otherwise, you will continue to have a litany of...
Boost totally cares about the intake manifold. That is such an incorrect statement but you will be ok with the Gen 3 intake for what you're trying to do.
I run OnCue E85 and I have done so in multiple boosted vehicles (Mitsubishis and Fords) in the past 20+ years. Never had to test it. Ever. At my local RS Fuels gas station, the employee there routinely posts in our local FB group the CoA when they get a new batch of pump E (they even have E100...
I have wanted to convert mine but not running a thermostat is a big deal breaker for my street car which btw, I drove to work today when it was 30deg out. I will keep looking for a workable solution. Motivation is to clean up the upper/lower rad hose plumbing. I may be making some changes to my...
I will be doing a Werewolf block if I kill my Predator block and it's not salvageable. But since the Darkhorse SC is using the 5.2, these will be in production for awhile.
Like leaded race fuel, it's hard on O2s and spark plugs. It's also hard to read the plugs which is important when tuning. If I had no access to E, definitely would do meth injection with boost. It's a reliable and proven method that has been available for decades.
Good deal. I did something similar but I don't have overhead gauges. Mine is logged into the VCM using prolink as well. I use an AEM map sensor (for boost) and a low doller motorsports pressure sensor that is directly threaded into my fuel rail for fuel pressure.
Definitely get the stage 2. Whipple brick is fantastic. Instead of running crappy additives like Boostane, I would opt for something like a water/meth injection if E85 is not available. My 2022 F150 knocked a lot on pump 91 on the Whipple calibration and 3.875" pulley (which is even bigger than...
I have done it with the heads on the car...lol. There are a few tricks to make the work easier. The use of grease to keep great control of the keepers is the biggest thing and lots of patience needed haha. Nice work.
Interesting tool there. I just used my fingers and oiled the seals and valve...
Dials are the worst freaking things. Ever. I test drove several vehicles in the past 3-4 years and I could not get past the dial shifter in some of them...like the Explorer. I want a shifter handle...lol.
