Indeed....

There is no heat soak when you are moving...... Also Ford is meeting 50 state compliance which does not really care about the best performance. Rob

I can not see how that enclosed box will breath as well as the open air filter. It looks like all the air comes from an opening smaller than the 132mm throttle body. Rob

Hat ring not fully in locked position and gas seeping around the o-ring? Rob

I got a vacuum fill kit from Amazon, $40. You might want to look into something like that if you have an air compressor. Rob

I remember that feeling..... Make sure to get the air out of the cooling system....this is important. Just consider this, that from this point going forward it is about learning the car and setup. There will likely be tweaks here and there. The good news is you will get a more mature...

I have been running 2-5 but not a lot of miles here in the NE due to weather. We have 93 octane but this time of year it's oxygenated (more ethanol). For daily driving I am not seeing anything but good throttle response and shifting in "Drive". Can't really do any good pulls when it's 25*...

One way to minimize the long crank is hit the start button without the foot on the brake. This energizes the pump to build pressure. Wait about 5 seconds then foot on brake hit start again. Not always going to start right up but helps. FWIW, Rob

You can open the Tomahawk.REQ file with notepad. It is an ASCII file. BTW, you really only need to send them Tomahawk.REQ file. Go here to request the calibration: https://whipplesuperchargers.com/index.php?dispatch=pages.view&page_id=96 FWIW, Rob

Look at post 36. Rob

I believe taking the car to a dealer and having them re-flash it will get a stock tune back. Likely will have to pay for it and your warranty for the drive train will certainly be black listed. Rob

I would think that if all you did was download the stock tune you can still overwrite the tune in the PCM with the Whipple tune. I would not think it is locked. The nGauge on the other hand will be locked to the stock tune and it may not allow the stock tune to be reinstalled due to a Lund...

Sorry but that is not how it works. Tomahawk can not download the tune in the PCM. It does not have a download tune function. However, it will capture PCM data like the VIN, PCM serial #, PCM ID #, and DTC if any logged in the PCM. This information will be in a file called Tomahawk.REQ...

The intercooler looks well packed in the lid but only takes one crack due to movement inside the lid from a sudden stop. I would think if there is a leak when you pull the lid off the Whipple there will be coolant inside the housing. Maybe not a lot. Just a film will be an indicator. Rob

Blackstone is good. I use them for my boat's engines and transmissions. Did you check the Whipple to make sure there are no leaks in the intercooler. Ingesting coolant under boost would really suck....or blow in this case. Plus that Whipple came from a car that was wrecked. Might be worth...

Any idea why it appears so yellow and milky. Did coolant get in it? With 50 miles on it should be crystal clear. Just like when it came out of the bottle. Rob

What additive is in the oil? Rob

Sent PM. Thanks, Rob

I am avoiding WOT now due to the temperature is mid-20's. No point on spinning the tires and going nowhere accept maybe a ditch,,,, Rob

I would say I saw this with version 2-1 and earlier. I believe it may have been due to torque control kicking in. You don't get this info with the Tomahawk. However, since that revision I now got HP Tuners logging working and can see torque control pulling throttle due to subtle wheel slip. Rob
