Start with a compression test and go from there. I drove my car home with a hole in piston #3 a year ago and minus the smoke it felt fine as long as you didn't get on it.

My stock struts and shocks had a lot of hard miles on them so you could definitely feel the difference. Might not be as dramatic if your swapping out lightly used parts but I'm happy with how they've performed. I've put aa many miles on them now a as the stocks and they are still solid.

Don't have the b12 kit but b6 struts/ shocks with pp1 springs and my gt drives like a dream.

Well that's good. Your shit is slow enough already! 🤣🤣🤣

Makes sense, I put a lot of miles on mine daily so when I ran them under 25 both inside and outside edges would wear faster than the middle. Probably way to much highway miles but when I bump it up to 28 I'd get even wear and the best life and grip feels good on the street. My last set wore very...

I like the r2s at 28psi for DDing. I've gone through multiple sets and tried lower and higher but that seemed to be the sweet spot. I'd lower them if I was out doing pulls but ran 28 otherwise.

Here's a short clip of my borla stype with the resonator. This video was after the turbos were installed though so the wastegates kinda drown out the exhaust. If you really listen you can hear the deep tone below the howl.

Oops. I meant bolt to the stock header! 🤣

Yes it will bolt right to the stock exhaust amd tone it down but it will be louder than stock. Gives the stype a nice deep muscle car tone. It was my favorite set up I ran on s550.

Why not look at the lpx-hd? Still made and serviced by McLeod but it's almost a mid range between the rst and the rxt. It should handle more abuse than the rst but makes for a better street car than the rxt.

Sure it's the clutch and not the tires your feeling when cold?

Probably has a lot to do with it. I still have the stock shifter body mounted but with an aftermarket clutch and haven't been locked out since.

On the stock clutch I had third gear lock out well before the limiter. Over 6800 was a crap shoot sometimes. Didn't happen a lot but enough to be a nuisance.

Do you have a link to something showing that's when ford switched? If it was mid 19, my shift forks have held an ungodly amount of abuse! 😂

Just clarifying. People are on both sides of whether all 19s or in 19 the change happened. I couldn't tell you exactly when it was but my 19 has been solid so I assume it was all 19s???

But with the slight bump in compression and hp they run basically identical times. So really it's more of a seat of the pants feeling you lose and not actual speed. If I ever planned on staying na I probably would have geared it higher. The mt82-d4 gearing is a match made in heaven if you plan...

Can't speak for anyone else but I've had no issues. I know BB should spool quicker but the lag is pretty minimal with the 373 gears.

I have the base 62/62 journals. Oil cooling only with the updated tanks. Working just like day one with over 53,000 miles on them. I even spent about 6 months burning a shit ton of oil through them when my engine was going out. Thought I'd need to replace them for the new engine but they are...

Apparently resonance can travel through the mounting bracket attached to the engine and cause it. I only know this because lund thought that might be what was causing my false knock and then they remembered I'm running turbos. I still have false knock if I'm not running my KS tune but mine...

I'm not saying the mt82 is a good trans but they upgraded the shift forks which was their biggest flaw. Some live long lives and some don't. I think the majority of newer ones last longer because of the design change.
