  1. P0019 code ??? Whipple/OPG install

    If you have an auto you’ll need to hold the bolt on the trans (specifically the torque converter) to prevent your crank bolt / balancer from moving when you remove it. It’s not a missing keyway issue the auto will just spin so impact or torque gun or you pop the cover under the drivers side and...
  2. Timing procedure questions

    I mean it seems to be in the correct position still LH cam marking seems appropriate. As I understand it RH timing pre removal 12 o clock cam is 11 o’clock, LH keyway at 5 o’clock and cam is at 4 o’clock 🤷‍♂️ I’ll just replace chains as directed and hand turn the engine with everything tensioned...
  3. Timing procedure questions

    Following the ford manual precisely. Chains are off and new OPG in place but when I removed my bolt on the crank it moved the crank counterclockwise slightly. Is there a way looking at my current cam positions and keyway to see if I’m mistimed? Can’t seem to find any posts on this. These were...
  4. Power Pack 2 pinging on 91...now what?

    where the shop went wrong is not running diagnostics. It could be poor fuel quality, it could be spark related and how they were gapped or are functioning, it could be running lean, it could be oil blow by related from raising the rev limiter.... I genuinely would not trust them to tune my car...
  5. Tunes and smog, anyone had to get one yet?

    I passed with a ported 18 manifold, catted long tubes, 120mm JLT intake, and actively running E85...... it’s clearly not as extensive as they make it seem.
  6. Power Pack 2 pinging on 91...now what?

    I agree with this. A lot of complaints of surging, rough idle, and hunting RPMs even with reputable tuners. Many people use the adapter and stick with stock TB not seeing a huge benefit in gains anyways 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️
  7. Turbo catch can

    To keep things as OEM as possible I would just recommend running a dual catch can setup. Some people gut the PCV and run breather filters but the whole reason you tapped into the passenger side is to maintain vacuum at idle with the PCV value. Your missing oil is probably being blown out the...
  8. Turbo catch can

    What do you have on your drivers side? I know that FI pressurizes the crankcase and both sides see pressure. when you’re NA the passengers side is mainly the issue and the drivers side will be feeder/clean. When adding boost the PCV on the passengers side becomes the path that is more resistant...
  9. Power Pack 2 pinging on 91...now what?

    91 gas is typically terrible quality that being said I would be surprised if you were genuinely detonating. Run 94 if you have it available. /edit. My bad you’re in Canada I thought you were in CA. As mentioned before you’d be pulling spark advance long before you’d ever be hearing it detonate...
  10. Question for power adder gurus

    I’ve beat a few in my 17 with aforementioned mods mostly from a dig anything from a roll they’d pull on me but honestly not by much if they were stock. I made 470/wheel at 3600lbs and a stock hellcat typically puts down 590/660 wheel at 4500lbs. Factor in traction issues and driver ability...
  11. Question for power adder gurus

    I did FBO E85 ported 18 mani 6 months ago. I’m currently bolting a Paxton / OPG on LOL. It was fun but not nearly enough for my taste. I could beat or stick with most lightly modified M series cars or even beat stock hellcats but I’d rather gap them by 3-4 cars. I like the centri setup because...
  12. 6r80 stutter only in 1st gear?

    I’ve always had this issue even before modding the car and I caught it on a log tonight and thought I’d ask. My car is a 17GT currently FBO E85 going FI next week. Only in first gear from 1/4 throttle to 1/2 throttle I’ll get what feels like dips in the pedal like I’m letting off. 6R80 has zero...
  13. New Mustang GT PP1 or New BMW M4 with Competition Package?

    Yet look at the weight of an M4....
  14. Vmp for tuning

    But then there are threads of people complaining about idle issues, surging issues, and Daily drivability with Lund too. Complaints that the throttle response, shift points, or tune is too aggressive for daily or street driving. Sometimes it’s right on the mark, sometimes it’s an issue that’s...
  15. No CEL for knock sensors unplugged?

    Hey guys random thing happened. I drive a 17GT. I’ve been running a FBO E85 setup with a ported 18 manifold for about 6-7 months. I’m switching to a Paxton supercharger, OPG, and a few other fun things and was getting my new tune file ready and I was going to start prepping for the install...

  17. Prepping the stock motor for boost

    less boost with equal power is safer than more boost. A lot of people drop 2-3lbs of psi after cams. You’re already breaking down the valve cover for OPG why not 🤷‍♂️. I wasn’t really thinking max effort, opinions are definitely mixed on these and the efficacy. Imo this makes more sense than...
  18. Prepping the stock motor for boost

    I would personally invest in comp cams and just do the OPG/CS. Like everyone said above I would do forged if you’re going to open it up. Hell may as well sleeve the block at that point too lol.
  19. Vmp for tuning

    I used them when I was FBO ported 18 mani NA and they dialed in my 93-E85 tune in with 1-2 revisions. Daily driving was perfect and WOT/roll racing/ shift points were all literally perfect and I was beating hellcats even with my 6r80. I even passed CA smog emissions running FBO and E85 LOL...
  20. anything else needed for a blower kit? (centrifugal)

    where the unit makes boost / power is dependent on BOV, pulley, and/or wastegate setup. There are Paxton’s with a tiny pulley and wastegate that have a completely different torque curve and power delivery. The oil fed Paxton is capable of 1000+ and not significantly more expensive. I wouldn’t...
