First post here in a really long time. On to the issue. Getting a surge under full throttle conditions. No other time. Some details. Car 2015 Ecoboost 6 sp manual PP built 12/2014. So yes a Spain engine. Mods are. ATM intercooler. 3 inch catless downpipe. Mishimoto catch can installed at 1K...

So I'm closing in on 55k miles. Be there before the next tank of gas. Been tuned since 18k. It should be noted I installed a catch can at 1500 miles. With all the talk of carbon buildup in these DI cars I was wondering if anyone on here has had a real issue with it? Anyone had to get the...

Anyone else have their account disappear from Livernois website? Just tried to login to check on tune updates and they have no record of my account or one attached to my email address. Curious.

So I bent my right front wheel (Philadelphia). Not bad and it's barely noticeable on new tires (installed today) but it needs to be replaced. Anyone got a single in good shape, paint and straightness, they'd like to part with reasonably? Also time is a concern. I don't want to wait too...

This is a curiosity post more than anything. I'll just go on and say it. When, not if, the MT82 in my car goes bad I will not be replacing it with another MT82. I'm at 35.5k right now and I can already tell the input shaft bearing is making some noise. Not much but definitely some. My last...

*** This thread is not about Blown Engines*** Okay I've been following as much as I can the issues some people have had regarding excessive oil consumption and in extreme cases blown engines. My concern is that certain oils may be more susceptible to misting in the crankcase. In that event it...

Looking for possible causes here. Details. Pirellis wore out and were replaced by Michelin PSS's 255/40-19 (stock size) last November. I have to say the dry grip is better and in the rain they are in a different league (better) than the Pirellis. But I'm going in for my 4th balancing...

So a couple weeks ago I rented a 2016 Mustang EB while in Florida. I daily drive a 2015 Mustang EB and I immediately noticed how much better the steering feel was in the newer car. My car is a Premium with the PP and the one I rented was a premium with 18" wheels. The comparison is that the...

I guess it's time to start a build thread. Never really decided to do a build but it seems one is inevitable. I expect progress will be slow compared to many but here goes. So it's been a slow start for the mods on this car. I've been busy either driving or working pretty much since I got it...

So having waited forever it seems, emailed both Koni and Bilstein months ago (no reply from either FYI) I decided everyone one was just being quiet heading towards SEMA. So now that SEMA is here I'll ask the question. Is anyone making aftermarket struts yet? Thanks.

So while driving today I hit the 20,000 mile mark. In just under 9 months...11 weeks of which I was out of town on business and it sat at the airport. Summary. Awesome daily driver perfectly reliable so far......and I drive too much. Also I cannot get out of it, walk away and not look back...

So this morning a tuner from Livernois showed up???? Oh yeah that's right I broke down and ordered one. Yesterday. Guess I couldn't hold out any longer. :shrug: (Lets not get into a debate of tuner, tuning, devices, vendors etc.... I've been paying lots of attention for quite a while now and...

Okay after living here for 8 years I still haven't found an alignment shop I trust. Of the at least 10 different shops I've used not one has gotten it right on any vehicle I've owned. After lowering I took it to get aligned. Drove fine but steering wheel horribly off center after alignment. Was...

So I was just sitting here thinking about how much I wished the S550 was aluminum bodied. I know how cost is an issue, etc, etc..... Then I thought "why couldn't it be an option". The more I thought about it the more I realized I'd have sprung for it if it were a 5k option. Maybe even a 7k...

So knowing that DR's are going to hook up so much better than a stock tire, what width is actually necessary to still hook up. My thinking is the narrowest lightest tire/wheel combo that will still provide enough grip would be ideal. I just don't have any experience with DR's and don't want to...

Background. I've always driven a stick. Never had any issue being smooth between shifts. Until this car in normal mode. The throttle is unnaturally sluggish and its near impossible to anticipate it going between gears. Makes for a les than smooth experience. Put it in sport mode and all...

The other day I was updating my fuel/mileage spreadsheet and decided to compare what it's cost, at 5800 miles to what my 06' Diesel F250 King Ranch, which I traded in on the EB, for the same mileage would have cost. The end result is that my car payments are within a couple of dollars of...

So last night I went to Eastside Speedway in Waynesboro Va. Elevation 1276 ft. DA was around 2500 I believe yesterday. Ambient temp low 70's. I had a 70 mile drive there and no cool down time. Intake air temps were around 110 in staging. Not sure it matters as my driving was very bad...

Today I went and investigated a rumor I had heard and I found this; So I immediately put some of it here; Where the luck comes in is I now have a consistent, easy to get source for it. It's only a mile out of my way on my route to work. Of course until I'm tuned, with this in mind...

So this is a subject I've not found much info on relating to our EB engines. Sure there are the recall issues from the 2.0 for pulsation dampener issues a few years back but that's not what I'm focused on. At all. In fact I'll just say it right now; Please lets keep this thread on point in...
