    3.55 differential swap in an automatic... Anyone done it?

    New to the S-550s, I was curious if any of you guys have done the upgrade to the 3.55 iron housing that Ford Racing offers. More importantly, I was curious what effect it had on ETs. I've heard from severalpeople that the cars run slower with gears, but after taking mine to the track (completely...

    2007 TVS GT500 vs 2015 Hellcat (auto) 1/8mile track run

    Ran into the owner of a 2015 Hellcat at the track. Super nice guy and beautiful car, so we lined up for a run. I hadn't made any passes in my car in over a year, so this got the blood pumping pretty quickly. Great race.... I was impressed with his car to be stock with only drag radials and a...

    VMP Gen2 Dyno results (versus previous Gen1 combo)

    Ok... earlier this year (several months ago) I upgraded to the Gen 2 VMP blower. I also made the change from the FRPP twin 65mm TB to a FRPP Monoblade, and went from 72lb/hr reworked stock injectors to ID1000's. I have been unable to get the car to the dyno for a tune until today, and I FINALLY...

    TB actuator motor or TPS issues

    Installed a FRPP monoblade on my 07 and took for a test drive last weekend. Probably went 100 miles, and then about a mile from the house car went into fail safe mode. Limped it home and checked the codes.... P2104 & P2112. The car would accept throttle about 10-15 seconds after it cranked, then...

    17" Weld RTS wheels on the rear

    I am running a 15x10 RTS on the back of my 2007 for track duty, but I had thought about leaving them on all the time and going with a 17" on the back for street use. I am having trouble finding any pics online to get an idea of how the larger diameter would look out back. Anybody running this...

    How much is "enough" alternator/battery voltage??

    Since the weather has warmed up I am getting a little concerned about the alternator on my 2007. Driving it today in 90 degree weather the voltage started out at 13.9-14.1 with the AC on while at cruising speeds. After driving an hour or so it was down around 13.3-13.5 and never really fell...

    Hello all, new to this section of the forum. I just picked up a 02 True Blue truck with 39K miles on it. It is all original, and planned mods are just a CAI, pulley, custom tune, heat exchanger, and possibly a valve body. I will definitely run the truck at the track some, but not very serious...

    New 1/8 mile PB

    I don't post a lot on here, but I thought I would throw up a video of my new PB at the local 1/8th mile track. There was virtually no track prep, so couldn't launch hard at all, and couldn't powershift the 1-2, but still managed to break into the 6's. Drove it 75 miles to the track, ran it, then...
