    Oil Change Interval

    Just drive it on the highway to work once in a while or around town. It's not ever been raced or pushed super hard for long periods consistently. I assume they pull full synthetic in but I'm not positive. It might be on the receipts if I can find them.

    Oil Change Interval

    Revolution Automotive threw in some 5w50 oil when they had the car in December to install a VMP supercharger. Since then I've put about 3,000 miles on the car and may put another 1,000 on it by December. As of right now the oil life meter on the car is at 71% oil life. In my previous high...

    Need second catch can for TVS?

    I only went with the passenger side. In 700 miles of street use I don't even think it had a small dixie cup full of oil. Not worth the extra money for the driver side imo. Passenger side should do enough

    SCT X4 as gauges?

    Yes it will read AFR by default. You'll want the Measured AFR for 14.07 for both banks if you want standard AFR for pump gas. If you want Measured Lambda there are options for that as well.

    Higher octane fuel

    Thanks for the handy link, that's the best chart I've seen so far, although I've heard some people say it's not entirely accurate, but even if I say 96 octane instead of 98, that should still provide some safety I'd assume. Would it be a bad a idea to leave a can of Torco (or similar) in the...

    Pre-purposed Brembos

    I heard that it's possible to find re-purposed Brembos for non-Brembo 11-14 GTs but I can't find any links on information for them. If anyone has a link that can be passed along that would be great.

    Higher octane fuel

    Having never used Torco or other products like it before, I'll have to do some more research first. I would assume there is some kind of ratio I am shooting for, FL OZ per Gallon = X octane. I'm guessing you should also add in the Torco portion before filling the tank would be the recommended...

    Higher octane fuel

    I've always planned on strictly using pump gas but I'm thinking about expanding my options, just for safety sake. I don't have easy access to E85 and I know that running octane boosters every fill up can hurt plugs so I'm wanting to get some insight on "race" fuel. As of right now I've only...

    Boost levels for stock motor?

    The Stage 2 VMP comes with BAP and 56# injectors standard. Not sure if the Beefcake special will allow for the discounted injectors or not but usually when you order if you order the ID1000's at the same time they're usually $500 option (normal price is about $1,000) I have the Stage 2 VMP and...

    Opinions on build direction

    I'm looking for personal opinions on where to go with my build. I'm planning on getting a new dyno tune from Revolution Automotive in the fall, hoping to close in on 600rwhp 500+rwtq on the current setup but while it's there I'm thinking it might be a good time to do something or a few other...

    Basic engine build

    Curious on this subject, it's more for research and knowledge transfer than anything else since I've never looking into the details of building an engine before. I have a VMP Stage 2 kit on my '14 currently. I have billet OPG and crank gear already in the engine. I'm running the 82mm pulley...

    Limits of stock exhaust and current injectors

    I'll never run E85 because it is too inconvenient. The closest E85 pump is about an hour from my house and it's just a street car. I won't be taking it to the track (at least not enough) to make it worth it. I also have to pass the emissions tests unfortunately and I've heard they're cracking...

    Limits of stock exhaust and current injectors

    I'm currently running the following mods: -VMP Gen 2 Stage 2 kit (56# injectors, bap, 82mm pulley) -Initial tune that shipped with the kit from VMP -Billet OPG and crank gear -Whiteline LCAs -GT500 axleback I don't have a boost gauge but I am assuming by car is roughly 10psi. I'm wondering at...

    Gains from dyno tuning

    I have a 2014 GT, auto car that I put a VMP Gen 2 Stage 2 supercharger on. It's the basic Stage 2 kit, 82mm pulley with 56# injectors and BAP. The supercharger is the only power mod done to the car. The tune I'm running is the initial email tune that came with the X4 and the kit. I had the car...

    Micky Thompson street comp tires...

    I saw another mustang at my gym the other day that looked pretty awesome, went to check out the tires and saw that they were 255 street comps...I wanted to find the guy and say I'm sorry lol They're supposed to be really great tires. I asked MT that exact question, they said they'd estimate a...

    Check BAP install

    I had a shop install my VMP Stage 2 kit which came with the VMP BAP and 56# injectors. The guy at the shop said I'd make more power with a BAP, but I'm pretty sure he is just the front desk guy so maybe he was not educated on what comes with the kit. In any case, I'd like to confirm that the BAP...

    Adjustable LCA alignment

    I picked up a set of Whiteline adjustable LCAs in winter that haven't been put on yet. I know when I install them I'll need to get an alignment but Whiteline recommends driving for 100 miles and then re-checking the torque on the bolts. If the LCAs are measured the same length as stock, can I...

    VMP Gen II Stage 2 on order!!

    Be prepared to invest in tires haha. Pretty sure I'll be jumping to some 285/40R18 drag radials. FWIW my 2014 GT with the standard Stage 2 VMP kit made 561rwhp 485rwtq with the initial tune that VMP sent with the kit. I haven't sent any logs in for a re-tune. I had the kit professionally...

    Anyone running SVE GT350 Rims

    Can you do a review on these tires? Are they the replacement for the ExtremeContact DW? I love the look of the GT350 wheels but the tire selection isn't as good for 19" wheels...I'll probably end up with 18x10 Drifts. I need tires that will be able to at least kind of hold 600+rwhp lol

    Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 tires

    I need to buy a new DD so my wheel/tire budget for the Mustang is taking a hit...I'm researching options in my stock size (track pack wheels) and I found these Firestone Indy 500 tires on Tire Rack for 255/40R19. Link below, hopefully it's allowed. They look like a pretty good tire, and have...

    SVE Drift opinions

    Thanks for all the input! Changing this up slightly...if I go with the squared setup (which I probably will), a friend of mine who is also an enthusiast keeps telling me to get drag radials for all 4 corners. This sounds like a bad idea to me but does any one have experience with this?
