You told me exactly what I was looking for. California summer temps on track days are the perfect test for that thing. Welp, I guess I'm going to get it now. I have some time to get funds together because I'm traveling when the last couple of track days for this season will be happening where I...
No. But you know what, that is probably the best way to go at this point. Such a simple solution, but I completely went past it trying to do my research.
From everthing I've looked up about the company, I have no doubts on the quality of products that they make. I just wish I had something more to go off of in terms of how well it performs. It is a pretty expensive part, but it's cheaper than buying a Shelby or a Mach 1 to get their extra cooling...
Yeah, the ecoboost and performance pack cars don't have the active shutters since they have the bigger radiators. I don't think they would fit. There is a way to remove the shuters without the car knowing that it's gone. If you take it to Mustang shop, they'll probably know the trick. The little...
Only thing I've done to the front of the car is Install the RTR grille. So more air flow from that automatically, and when I got my tow hook installed, I had to remove the active shutters, which you already don't have since you have a performance pack car with the bigger radiator. I use Amsoil...
No funny shifts or anything. I just noticed a sudden loss of power on back straight and when I looked down to my gauges, I noticed that the transmission was only just above the red portion of the dial. On my way back to the paddock I got warning about the transmission temp right before I shut...
Yup. The engine temps have never been an issue for me in this car. And Sunday was pretty hot. On my hottest session it hit 90 degrees ambient. The transmission temp is my car's Achilles heel.
Will do, but that will be much futher down the line. I've spent too much on the car already this year. If I do pick it up, it will be either be closer to November before my next track day at Barber, or early next year.
I had the car go into limp on my third session out. I was going all in and didn't notice the temps until I was going flat out on the back straight on my third lap for that session and the power cut out. I have the digital dash option in my car with the temp gauges displayed and it showed the...
I'll post this here since this seems like a more appropriate spot and it is kind of languishing on the transmission board. I went to Road Atlanta for a track event on Sunday and hit the thermal limits the 10r80 once they let the green group go full out during the second half of the day. I could...
I was at Road Atlanta over the weekend for a track day and while the car performed well during my first two sessions (these were slower since I'm still in green group) once we were going all out, the trans temps meant I could only get three or four good laps in before I had to come in to give...
Yeah, I live in Atlanta and the roads are awful. I do mostly city driving these days and I'm looking to get some extra bit of compliance with out going while hog and replacing all that stuff I put on the car barely a year ago. So I'm going to go with softer springs because they are relatively...
Thanks for the advice everyone. Sounds like springs are the way to go. So I have added the FP Street X springs to the comparison list. So it's between those and the Steeda Ultralite Linear Lowering Springs, Steeda Minimum Drop Springs and the BMR Performance Springs. Does anyone know the spring...
Thought I'd post this here instead of starting a new thread. I followed a lot of the recommendations on this thread to upgrade the suspension on my Mustang and they really work for making the car feel amazing in the corners and improving the feel through the steering wheel. But, I am really...
Something the owner of a mustang performance shop told me down here in Georgia is that the jerky downshifts are programed in by ford for fuel efficiency reasons. I believe that having the trans shift at specific RPMs, depending on load, gets the best mileage out of it. Unfortunately it does not...
No problem. Powerlab is in the process of moving at the moment (they just announced it last week) and haven't settled on a new place yet. Here is their instagram page if you want to check them out. Hopefully they don't go too far out of the way with this move...
With my setup, I wasn't trying to get the ride to be super plush. And I guess that's where I mess up in replying to OP's question. I wanted body control where that the stock springs could not give. When I switched over to the stiffer BMR springs, the ride felt better to me because the weight of...
Just to piggy back on what everyone is saying, stiffer springs help with ride quality on the non-magride cars immensely. The stock springs don't control the body well at over the harder bumps. They don't dampen the bumps all that well and instead just transfer the motion to the body, so the car...
Looking into it further, it seems like the 350 valance only fits the 15-17 bumpers and a company would have to make an updated design to fit the 18+ cars. Unless I want
to spend the extra cash to get a shop to fab my current bumper to make it fit. Oh well. I just keep mulling over if I want the...
