finally got my vents from @GTP installed. I asked if they could be matte/satin to match my PP wheels and they came out great. Off to road america in 2 weeks.
how do i fix this perimeter area where the oem vent used to be (not the large cutout area i added)? it kind of goes away with water but comes back when it dries. explain it like i know nothing about detailing
check the purge valve, it has probably failed by now. disconnect the quick connect from the intake side just after the throttle body and cover the hole on the manifold. try out your two scenarios. i would guess the voltage difference is just a fuel economy thing.
430 wheel or 430 crank? i guess if 430wheel that is pushing the limit of what some tuners would do on a stock engine, but limiting torque is more important. sounds like big turbo on some mix of ethanol. I'm on big turbo and E70 and it should make between 400-420 wheel. As for tracking (HPDE?)...
sucks to hear someone sold you a ticking time bomb. not a complete list of options but
-built 2.0 shortblock from an ecoboost tuner-$4500
-bare new 2.0 block -$1900
-used 2.0 $??
how many miles were you at
