My car has about 4500 miles on it and the clutch seems to grab very high on the pedal. No slippage but when changing gears i only have to push the clutch in about 1". The car is stock, has been to the track once on bias-ply cheater slicks, other than that just a normal life for a daily driver...
Alright maybe not mandatory, but I am not taking chances on hurting my future career advancements. Anyway I have worked as a Dodge tech since 2003, worked at my current dealer since 2008. I used to drive Dodge products years ago (had 2 srt-4's and one srt-8) but had swore i would not own one...
So who are you guys using for tuning the fist? I am running into dead ends everywhere. I already have a SCT tuner from my SHO so livernois and cobb are OUT, I refuse to purchase another device. So who is out there? I cant believe how hard it is to find stuff for this car. I looked through most...
First off, the car is a blast to drive!! But **** ford and this stupid ****ing sync. Every time I start the car the Sirius is locked up and wont respond to any inputs. I have to switch to FM then back to Sirius and it will work until the next time I shut the car off. Took it to ford and they did...

Well i just picked up a 2013 F-150 ecoboost to go along with our 2010 SHO. So now i have 2 vehicles that are in desperate need of tuning. The question is who and why? We all know Livernois, IMO priced a little high. There is Unleashed tuning which is cheaper. i am sure there are others so i want...
Well, how well does your SHO launch? i took my 2010 to the track and got a best 60ft of 2.5sec. the car just blew the front tires off and wheel hopped all the way through 1st gear. i found a tsb and sure enough i can spin the driveshaft by hand with the car in park, which according to ford means...
Well i converted a littel over a year ago and other than a little problem with the spade connector at the pump getting eaten, the car has performed flawlessly. i used some shrink tubing to protect the terminals on the pump and have had no problems since. have not even cleaned the fuel filter...
Holy crap have prices gone up!! we want to trade in her CX-7 for another sport ute. i suffered form sticker shock for a few weeks, but have come to terms with the BS overinflated prices. (44k for a 2wd jeep, 28k for a stripped journey, 35k+ for an Edge). so i am going to talk numbers on a Kia...
well just got my car done (solid axle swap and 26spline input) and on the way home from work a lady hit me from behind. she got the right rear and pushed me into the car in front of me which took out the right front. she was going pretty good, approx 45mph. tow truck driver said my car is...
Yep, time to fix a couple of Ford's mistakes.
To hell with the IRS!!!
You are the weakest link, GOODBYE!
Here is what should have been in the car from the factory.
And last but not least, the second weakest link
26 Spline will be here today! along...
went to the local ice skating rink last friday (aka, the dragstrip) and broke on my second run. wheel hop was intense to say the least. anyway, grab second and boom, car stops moving. get towed off the track then towed to work. start the car, put it in gear and then let he clutch out, of course...
i want to go to a return style setup, i allready run twin GT's in a tripple fore hat. so i was thinking, why not throw another $80 Gt pump in there instead of buying three walbros? but i dont know if the pumps can support that style?
had to drop the tank as i had a pump that had very high resistance (2.8m ohms) causing my master FPDM to go into thermal. got the fore hat out and was very surprised at what i found. the wiring connectors are rotting away BAD. one of the negative conntectors came apart (my high resistance), even...
well my little KB 2.2 just can not move enough air to take full advantage of E-85, so it is time to upgrade. yes i know turbo is the only way to go, but i dont have that kind of cash.
so i have been thinking of moving to a 2.6h but the numbers i see from it are no better than a 2.2kb or 2.3...
Holy ****ing shit, filled up last week 2.29 a galon just like always. fill up today 2.69 :eek: WTF, 40 cent jump all at once!! oh well i still love the stuff, and so does my car.:rockon:
well, how do you like our fine jewel in the desert?:rollseyes saw a yellow turbo mustang go 12.4@130:eek: dancing all over the track. like that track prep did ya? how about the water box, that was good to right? what a joke this track is. the best part is they do ZERO prep and then scream at...
well i have been looking for some 16x8 wheels for et streets since i cant get these hoosier dr's to hook. so far i can find what must be gold plated rims for 100 bucks but thats it. anyone know of a good place for some reasonable wheel prices? i dont care what they look like as long as they a...
Hell i swear cars were not this slow in Denver.
this past weekend i went and trapped 124mph:fm:, so i decided to sit and watch the races and started to notice that i am not the only one struggling. temps were very cool, low 80's, so i dont know what was wrong. but the cars i saw run really...
well nothing to brag about, but it is what it is. the cobra just does not like the heat, or should i say the pcm does not like the heat since it would not allow more than 14* timing due to 165* charge temps. also boost was down to 19 from 21 due to heat.
went to the track tonight, ran 3 12.0's but at a whopping 123mph!! WTF do i have to do to make this POS run? i expect and want to touch 130 in the 1/4.
2.2 kb @ 21psi, 23* timing, plenty of fuel. a/f is 11.4. on the dyno it made 571 with 19* timing, but the pcm was pulling 5* due to 170*...
posting this here cause the termintor section is a ghost town.
i have a moroso? tank (its a lethal performance oversized aluminum tank) that keeps blowing coolant onto my winshield. the damn seal for the cap keeps blowing out the side. this will happen while cruising on the highway, no...
so i wanted to do some datalogging after installing my fore hat and oversized i/c res. the res. is the aluminum one form lethal. well on my second highway pull my windshield gets a bath of coolant from the i/c. i get home and pop the hood and much to my surprise i see that the gasket has blown...
