@Crowd Hunter: I too have a race-red (2016 though) with black wheels, luv it. But, I have to say, that ruby-red one with silver wheels you posted above gave me a bloody-hard-on. 53 this side, for the record. Btw, here’s mine, apologies for the crappy photos, they are rather old and pre...

Yep, I just received my a Pierburg pump after placing the order last week, their service was speedy. A week from order to Down Under. This pump, combined with the oversized Whipple LTR I got in from PBD, should give me some breathing room here in Melbourne wrt IAT2, even more so when combined...

Simply because not everyone wants to risk their engines with 900rwhp? I have a VMP Gen3R on the shelf in the garage, with a selection of pulleys to make 700-> 1000rwhp. However, until I do a long-block build, I will limit my setup to 700-750rwhp max, as I see no need to do 900 and kill the...

Cheers Mate, thought it would come without it. I will chat to VMP, as I have their 2650 Gen3R blower lying here in the box too. Need a few extra bits and bobs from them anyway, so can grab it then. Let me order the pump though, cheers for the link ;) edit: And done, hopefully it arrives soon.

Chainsaw, please see a few posts above, question for you ;)

@Chainsaw: That Pierburg pump you linked - does it come with the plug as well? I am keen on getting one of these pumps to use on my Roush setup, and soon to mount extra-large Whipple LTR. Thanx for your reply ;) ‘Cheers, Beano

^^ Yep, that’s looking nice and aggressive, I’m after a similar look for my 2016

Nice 350 too ^^ Bloody clean, luv it!

Thanx Dorothy, yes, I tend to agree ;) But then again, I am biased, haha. @Crazymach: Beautiful car, very aggressive front on the 500, luv it!

Ha, yes, I did mention your caveat, Albert. But wickers will work better for sure, if implemented correctly, no doubt. But like you have said, these louvers will do a very good job as opposed to none, that was the point I was trying to make to Ewheels. He commented that the cooling is...

@db252: Good reply, more or less online with my thinking. I would only argue that what AlbertD shown during his tests wasn’t scientific ( as he also alluded to) or conclusive, as it may very well be turbulence from the wickers causing the tufts’ behaviour. Hence my comment about measuring under...

I would say measuring the pressure below and above the hood would be a better test. Looking at the configuration, where they are installed, there will be a significant pressure differential between those two points, I am almost certain at speed, there will be a healthy extraction of hot air.

Haha, posted this in the wrong thread earlier, let me rather update here in the future: Apologies for posting it elsewhere too.... Finally fitted my spare hood I modded with Trackspec Louvers, glad I got rid of that hideous non-functional Roush scoop. Before and after. Took the Stang out for...

Cheers Mate, I am quite happy with the result, it looks very nice and clean. I actually like the fact that they sit a bit proud, as my hood is the non-vented factory 2016 model. Of course it was a bit more work to do these, but the overall result looks much nicer irl, the satin-black...

Finally fitted my spare hood I modded with Trackspec Louvers, glad I got rid of that hideous non-functional Roush scoop. Before and after. Took the Stang out for a drive, was surprised at how much heat vented once I parked her. First impressions are they work rather well. Overall happy with the...

Ford Australia manufacturing has stopped. You can’t buy any new Falcons. The one listed above was an FPV GT XR8, superseded by the FGX XR8....that black 2014 FPV shown above though had by far the most aggressive and best-looking front fascia....the last FGX models were a bit bland compared to...

This was my 2006 F6 Tornado FPV Ute back in 2007, after I had Nizpro do some work on it, final result was very close close to 400rwkw, was one crazy SOB, certainly pulled like a mofo. The only issue I have with these engines are the fact that they don’t like revving past 6500rpm, which makes...

Boost is displacement ;)

Supercharger hits are more linear, a constant shove up the back.....turbos will give you that ‘oh shit’ feeling. At the same boost levels, turbos will make more ave power/torque under the curve too. I am not buying that superchargers are quicker, not if tuned for the same boost, you can’t use...
