About a month ago, i met Boss owner from Abiline. He had a D1-SC also an A/T.
Ran 9.40@145mph. awesome set up. He also uses the car on the street and loves the pro charger for street an track.
Anyone else? I'm really thinking about adding that D1-sc to my car.
I have no illusions...
My stock clutch is fine right now. However, I'm anticipating more power when I add F/I.
That being the case, I'm sure it's only a matter of time for a new clutch, so rather than wait, I'm researching adding the clutch soon.
Looking at Twin Disc. I've seen a lot of info/reviews on McLeod...
19X10 295/30ZR/19 Front Offset +38
19X11 325/30ZR/19 Rear Offset +53
Perfect fit. No rubbing, no issues. Ride and handling is greatly improved on Pirelli's.
I've been considering going with e85 (AED tune). It is available in my area. I know it's great on F/I cars; just curious on results for N/A?
I would do the ID1000's.
Thanks for input.
Went to my first Texas Mile.
Had a blast. I could only run on Friday. You have to qualify on first run between 140-160 MPH to be able to run unlimited speed.
Fist Run was 144.8. Speedo actually was 153-155 when I shifted into 6th and the speed dropped at the end of the 1 Mile marker...
Just a short video.
I really like the GT500's; much better sound than Roush Extreme's, in the sense that the GT500's are much deeper and less raspy sound, along with no drone!
I did like the Roush's before I did the Cat Deletes.
Thanks to Steve @ Tousley Ford for great price and service...

Mickey Thompson Drag Radials:Changed my Boss/Video
I just added Mickey Thompson ET II Street Radials.
Went to Texas Motor Speedway Friday Night Drags. No timers/clocks, etc.
Win or go home. 1/8 mile on the Pit Road.
My Boss launched like crazy. On Pirellis I would have to launch at 1500...
AED Tuned: First Impression: Drag Race Update
I just had the AED tunes installed (Performance/Lopey/Drag) along with Airaid Parnelli Jones CAI.
Now, I don't have a baseline dyno to compare before and after. And with the traffic tonight not many chances to really open up.
However, my first...
X Pipe vs. Side Exhaust? UPDATE
I've got a situation that demands a change.
I'm having a Griggs Torque Arm Kit installed (also the Airaid CAI/SCT AED tunes).
In order to install the Torque Arm, the side exhausts need to be blocked off or removed in favor of X mid pipe.
I really...
I just had the following mods installed:
1.Hotchkis Springs #19391
2.Hotchkis LCA
3.Whiteline Relocation Brackets
First of all, the stance is awesome (pics later). The handling and feel is way better than I imagined. The ride did not suffer at all, as a matter of fact, it's a much better...
I'm really getting serious about doing Cat Deletes. I'm looking to hear back from those who are running these on what to do, expect, change, etc.
Pro's and Con's.
Loudness and state inspections are not issues to worry about.
Thanks.
