Have OEMradio remove the equalization out of your head unit first. I had mine installed without the mod first, and it was horrible. With his radio fix, it is much better. I still prefer an aftermarket head unit, but since that is not yet available, his fix is the best thing we can do. Then...
Thanks. Let me know what you find. I may ask shop to move amp to under passenger seat, and see if that helps. Jl has to know something. There are plenty of examples out there. I was born the fact that my last two were Mercedes, and had amplified antennas. Now I'm positive that was not the...
Apparently the JL HD 900/5 emits a RFI signal. Seems as though most of the problems occur when the vehicle has a rear antenna, and the Amp is also located in the rear. I found this several times when doing a Google search in several different vehicles. Again, not all of them, and my shop says...
Do you guys have any problems with radio reception after installing a JL HD amp? I have had the 900/5 in my last 3 cars (new amp each time), including my 2015 GT Premium, and my radio reception is horrible. My shop says that some cars have this problem with the HD amp, and some do not.
They...
Search in Google. It is not every car. It does seem to be related to the antenna being back there in my opinion as a the example I am finding have it there. They emit rfi frequencies or something. It's all over the Internet.
I agree with two amps, but there will likely be no savings unless I get inferior amps. The 5 channel normally saves money which is why it is common. I know these HD amps perform the same even with voltage drops which is why I am trying to find the best possible solution here. I know I can go...
100% it is the amplifier. They have had this before with the JL HD 900/5 amp. And to top it off, I had an SL55 before this with the same JL900/5 (not physically but the same amp) which had the same problem, and at the same time had a GL450 with the SAME amp, and also the SAME radio reception...
Can anyone give me some suggestions on replacing my JL 900/5. I have it driving a Focal 13" sub, and Focal 3 way flax in addition to two rear Focal 6.5" coaxials.
Problem is, horrible radio reception. Really bad, and I know some will say who cares about a radio, but I am past that point, and...
Mine were installed at a shop. I have Focal Flax 3 ways, and my crossovers are under my drivers seat. Not issue at all even with my kids in the back They remain hidden at all times.
That's nuts cause of all the FI users on here, you be pressed to find many more than the ones in your area (not counting a vendor testing a 1000hp tt setup) who had that failure. Not saying it didn't happen, but it wuld be nice to know what else those cars had, and what their primary use...
I didn't plan on my car being a dd as I have 3 other vehicles and two Harley's. However, since having my Whipple installed, I drive nothing else. I like the immediate power available on the streets. Much more fun to drive in my opinion. As for things breaking, you can search forever and...
Funniest thing about the dozen threads about this is that nobody changes their mind. If you don't think you need it, this does not change your mind. Maybe real people using FI that blow it in a real situation (not 1 for every 10,000) would have an impact. I'm sure having and opg can never...
I have Maganaflow Competition cat back with headers, X-pipe, and no cats. Can I just swap the mufflers out for street? If so, will there be any power loss?
Yeah, hottest I have had since this setup was 96 out, and my IAT read 34 above when stopped. Once moving, it comes right down. I am guessing maybe it comes down faster with the fans although mine does not take too long.
Can someone post average IAT temp that has fans? I have no fans, and I average 30 over ambient. Most I ever see is maybe 34max in any situation. I'd like to hear the difference from someone with fans. This is using the on board gauges in the car. So let's keep it apples to apples. Thanks!
I am still trying to figure out how much benefit the fans have. I did not order them. Just did not want the noise to be honest. I have a closed airbox, and IAT is normally 30-34max above ambient when not moving. Never passes that. What are you fan guys seeing above ambient with or without...
Started with Flowmaster cat back. Definitely was loud. Loved the sound, but drone was a bit much for me.
I now have Pypes headers with a Maganflow Comp system after that with X pipe, and all 3 inch. That was too loud. I added Dynomax 4" race bullets. That did tone it done just about to...
spoke to idatalink. They are in the early development stages, and have no timeline, but they believe they will have a product for 2015+ Mustangs. He even mentioned that none of their competitors are even working on it as the Ford platform is extremely difficult. However, more of a reason for...
