  1. Need advice please - motor blown after dyno, has Whipple.

    I’ll add my 2c: -Looks like a used car that came with the supercharger and unknown tune already installed. Possibly previous owner damaged it and sold it as a result. -Someone already pointed this out, one plug strap damaged and top of piston with marks on it looks like something went through...
  2. Clutch swap and broken manifold swap, car wont idle

    Car should idle fine even if you need to do a crank relearn. Sounds like you have more than a “crank relearn” issue going on there, more like an air leak or injector not firing or plug not firing.
  3. Track Time Limited due to High CHT

    I went in and checked when a stock 2015 turns on the fans: 212 the fans will run at 40% and at 223 they are 100%. I’m guessing your model year might be the same. Also sealing the radiator is the single most important thing you can do. You want to all 4 sides to be as close to 100% sealed as...
  4. Track Time Limited due to High CHT

    Sounds like some kind of cooling system issue. Sealing the radiator in is a good improvement, but you’re heating up so fast that something else could be wrong, but hard to pinpoint what. You’ll have to just go through everything and check all is good.
  5. Superchargers and HPDE/Road course

    lol, I’m not saying don’t do it, just giving you a heads up on what to expect. No doubt, boost up for 1/2 mile and hellcat beatings and boost down for track days makes a fun general purpose car. I wouldn’t have it any other way.
  6. Superchargers and HPDE/Road course

    I track a TT car at around 7-8psi of boost, the extra power allows you to run with Porsche GT3RS type cars, but as has been stated already, it leads you down a never ending heat management rabbit hole. e85 is essential, you will need this to keep piston temperatures down. The biggest issue...
  7. Fuel systems with an OEM style bucket

    This is the only way to properly solve the fuel surge problem. I run a TT on a road course and have tried everything, including a pump in the passenger side. At the end of the day, the only way to reliably ensure the pump inlet always sees fuel is with a good surge tank. Use the OEM fuel pump...
  8. Question for tuning experts

    I’ve also GT350 swapped my car. You might need to double check how all the manifold hoses are routed. There are more than several little ports before and after the throttle body on this manifold. You might want to double check that the way they’ve been hooked up makes sense. Looks like your...
  9. Leg Padding for Track Use

    I’m with you there buddy, I have a knob on my knee from a motorcycle accident and it gets rubbed raw after a weekend at the track. Got myself some foam sheet with a sticky backing off Amazon and cut out pads. Now i can make the weekend with bleeding. Lol.
  10. Exhaust Pressure Testing

    So the 3” pipe where you measured the 6psi, is after all the factory connects and smaller diameter pieces? If yes, then looks like larger diameters are needed to reduce back pressure more. Assuming your mufflers are true 3” and not those ones with louvers that make the ID effectively 2.25”
  11. Installed a Tremec Magnum XL in my S550

    I made the same changes when I swapped to a magnum. I didn’t have to make any torque management changes. If you are getting torque management issues after the swap you could disable the gearbox protection and driveshaft protection, etc to see if that makes the problem go away. Also, I made a...
  12. Crazy DSS DS Vibration at 60+mph

    Looks like 1,500hp: https://www.qa1.net/automotive/driveshafts/mustang-rev-series-carbon-fiber-driveshafts I ordered mine with sonnax slip yoke and sonnax rear adapter flange. The rear adapter flange is aluminum and the whole shaft is a quality piece. Edit: I’m Tremec XL, MT-82 won’t use the...
  13. Driveshaft Shop Products SUCK!

    Same experience here, DSS stuff is cheap junk. I’ve had half shafts wear out after 8 months of use and a driveshaft that vibrated so badly I couldn’t use it. Eventually threw it away and got a QA1, problem solved.
  14. Crazy DSS DS Vibration at 60+mph

    Same here, my aluminum DSS driveshaft vibrated so bad I couldn’t use the car above 80mph and tried everything to improve the issue. DSS told me to reinstall all the rubber bushings to absorb the vibration. So I got a QA1 driveshaft and it worked right out the box, no issues at all. DSS is...
  15. Throttle response or lack of under boost

    I got lazy and made all my “Borderline” timing tables 4degrees less than my “MBT” tables. Seems to work well with no noticeable lag on shifts and pedaling.
  16. Carbon Fiber Decklid/Trunk Recommendations?

    I have this one: https://ajhartmanaero.com/mustang/?sort=featured&page=2 It designed for his wing, which I also have. The whole setup is very light, but if you are looking for OEM fit and finish, then you should just get a second lid as other have selected.
  17. SCCA CAM-C Thread

    Awesome, thanks for response. Can you still use the stock battery after your mods to the battery box? I use the lightweight for track and the stock battery for weekend play.
  18. SCCA CAM-C Thread

    Thinking about getting that same battery. G30. Did you get the charger as well or don’t worry about that?
  19. 10:1 compression gen 2

    I’m 10:1 compression with gen 2 heads. At 10psi to 11psi I’m getting 800whp.
  20. Cortex electronic boost controller

    Yes, still very happy with mine, use it for boost by gear by rpm and it does a great job. Guys who consider the cortex are usually put off by the install which requires a engine speed signal and an OSS speed signal. Also there are a ton of programming and setup features that can be...
