So the oil cooler got damaged and it ran low on oil?
finally got the car back to my dealership and confirmed what ford said, the engine oil cooler i installed got damaged by a rock or something. put a nice little hole in it. anyways like JUIC3D said its been a while since an e85 turbo car let go. Ive got my insurance company involved at this point, itd sure be nice if the insurance picked up some of the cost of the aluminator. of course with the holidays they are a week out from even looking at it. all of this has made me realize the mustang is getting a bit past DD status and i could sure use a truck with towing capabilities. Looking at ecoboost f150s, anyone got experience with em?
poked hole an\d oil loss. thinking back when i did get on it, it didnt seem its usual mega fast like maybe 70% power and insufficient oil pressure might attribute to such things. Also pre turbo y pipe has a noticeable dent/scrape on it, and its not the lowest part on the exhaust.
On the ecoboost note, i think itd make a great DD and tow rig with some getup n go.
+1Good news man, sometimes things work out for a reason.
I'm not with geico as they like to raise rates after you have them for a year, progressive too. I'll surely find out whether it's comp or collision once I get all the paperwork. Justin , I'm with usaa and haven't made a claim or had an at fault accident in over a decade. Ford roadside towed the car that night and the ford service dept pointed out the bleeding cooler. Had that guy not been hit i would be out of pocket on this.
SID, I already ordered the Aluminator as downtime was a big concern with a move coming up. I'm still rowing gears in the mt82, I'm already asking a lot out of that thing lol
I got $20 on the JPC car.
hells yea, once mine is back together we would be a really good run. Two turbo mt82 cars, JPC vs CPR!
With an aluminator, e85 and more boost, I would certainly hope so! If not, there's something wrong. Still pump for me baby and loving my times and mph so far
Aluminator for more boost AND e85? We would of been a good race before the issues now. I sure hope you can get that car to go 9's with the new setup. I'm leaning towards it with the stock motor.
