So first crank of the day my car stumbles and idles rough until I blip the throttle a couple times and clears up. Also the fuel economy really sucks. Any ideas?
Will this fit without rubbing the strut? Pirelli Pzero on a 40mm offset front wheel? I want to order it but using the measurements on tire rack there will be a nats hair of space between the tire and strut, help!!
I wanted to start a thread so we can keep track of blown engines and the parts that failed. Please list your bad luck here along with the mods to the car and type/grade of oil when it let you down.
So I bought the oil pump change gasket kit from ford when I did my pump and gear. Changed all the gaskets and put it all together. When I installed the valve cover gaskets I thought it was fitting odd but ignored it. So few miles down the road the valve cover was leaking a little bit, out comes...
Today I made it to the Dyno to check the car and see what's going on, 95* 50% humidity I put down 640/500. I'm happy with that, stg2 whipple and an X pipe. This is the good shit! After I get bored with 640 then I will try a smaller pulley?:D
So I'm going to swap the OEM vents out with Anderson composites vents but also like to add some vents at the rear of the hood like the super snake. Anyone done this yet?
So how does our traction control(wheel spin) work? Does it cut fuel or ignition? I have noticed that after installing the Whipple it blows the rear tires off with easy. What worries me is if it cuts fuel while I'm in boost that will eventually eat some Pistons! Anyone know?
How can you tell if your pump is running without breaking open the system? When my car is cool i still have pressure at the cap, can you over fill the system? Will IAT on the gauge be an indication of aftercooler temp or is the before the supercharger?
Ok, so after two weeks of bad luck I finally got the car running! Question is when I kill the motor it gives off kind of a fart sound, as if the by pass valve is closing and bleeding off air? Anyone else have this strange sound?
So I pulled the covers off for the Opg swap and they are leaking, I installed per the manual but have the leaks. Is this caused by over torque of the bolts? What kind of a gap do you see between the cover and head?
So I have searched and people are saying its a Non Interference motor and others saying it is a interference (zero clearance) motor? Does anyone know the real answer?
