I listen to the sound clip again, at 32 and 45 seconds I can hear that strange noise, like metal flapping but it’s definitely not a pinging sound. Have you given Ford Performance the clip? I’d like to hear the response to the recording.
Yes the dyno numbers are not good. I’ve never put my car on a dyno so I can’t say what if any impact power pack 2 had on my car.
Are you going to go back to stock?
I’m still not certain it is pinging, the engine puts down a lot more power and runs smoother and cooler since power pack 2 was installed. I wondered if the sounds we hear is coming from the open cold air intake. Since the noise isn’t a true pinging sound?
I listened to your recording and I hear the exact same sounds you hear from my car after I Installed power pack 2 last year. Only noticeable when the sound can reflect off a surface like a wall. Since I have not gotten any engine lights or codes I figured I was hearing things.
Good luck with the Chrysler, according to most reliability sites, Chrysler is in a last place tie with Range Rover. Lemon aid guide is full of not recommended Chrysler.
Yes, register and install the procal software on your laptop. Then connect the procal to the car and your laptop. Press the start button, but don't start the car. Let the software connect to the car and read the VIN. Then if you have an internet connection you can download the tune. Once you...
I had to pull out everything when the bolt snapped. The adapter and throttle body housing are much stronger then the bolt supplied. I would assume that to protect guys like me that don't read carefully. I doubt the bolt can hold more then 20 ft/lbs of force.
Thanks, that explains it. :headbonk: So I'm still over torqued then. Should I loosen the bolts now that everything is installed or just leave it?
I finished uploading the tune as well. Got a check engine light went into the diagnostics section said I de-engerized the ECU to early. I...
Installed the power pack 2 yesterday on my GT. Everything went fine until the gt350 throttle body install. First the space was very tight and it took some work get it lined up. Second, the bolts given in the pack can not be torqued to 62 ft/lbs. I noticed that where the thread starts the groves...
Just received my power pack 2 from summit racing today. Now I have to decide if I want a dealer to install or just do it myself. I live in Toronto and I don't know of any dealer that has done this install, so I'm leaning towards doing it myself.
Lucky this forum has great instructions on the...
Get a strut tower brace and steeda rear subframe braces as well. Makes the car feel totally different. The handling and sharpness in steering is very noticeable.
I never buy a first year car, always issues. The engine is total redesign and a new 10 speed auto spells recalls to me. I'll take the 17 over the 18 any day.
