    60-130 time with Torque app

    Curious if anyone else has tried the 60-130 timer with the Torque Pro app on their droid. I would think it is fairly accurate based on it reading the cars speed sensors. It was a nice 68 degrees tonight so I figured I didnt have to worry about the 555r's breaking loose in 3rd gear like they do...

    Going to be swapping my injectors later in the week..

    Wondering if there is anything I need to watch out for when swapping my injectors out. I assume other than pulling the throttlebody and elbow off, it should be straight forward?

    To ones who are using 2013 injectors

    Question for the ones who have went with 2013 injectors. I contacted Tousley concerning the injectors and if they were in sets of 8 flow matched, or single units. They replied that they would be single units off the shelf. The price obviously is unbeatable at 22.00/ea, but my concern is if...

    12' TVS GT500 vs 05' ECS 1500 Vette

    Met a pretty cool Vette owner last weekend, and we ended up playing a little on the highway, but the car was just picked up that day after supercharger install, and he was not used to it yet. We talked a bit about the cars and decided we needed to meet up again and try the races again. Fast...

    12' GT500(TVS) vs. 300 SRT8(Cammed, Procharged)

    12' GT500(boltons) vs. 300 SRT8(stuff bolted on :) Some details redacted out of respect for the race participants. :) Had the opportunity to race a very sweet Chrysler 300 SRT8 tonight. Car sounded mean as hell, and much props to the owner. It was beating the ground. My mods are things...

    For Fenixfire (IS350 mod info)

    Here is some info for you on my old 350. The difference between the Joe Z Racing exhaust I had, and the F-Sport exhaust that comes on the Fsport IS you are looking at is the Fsport is axle-back only. The Joe Z has a mid pipe with it that eliminates the 2 rear Cats(the car has 4 cats from the...

    11'-12' IAT2 Solutions

    Has anyone come up with a solution to viewing IAT2 temps on the 11-12's? We have an IAT2 sensor.. but no downstream signal to read for a gauge(Aeroforce etc). Could you just tap into the wires coming off the IAT sensor on the driver side of the supercharger to read a signal? Or is it best to use...

    12' Shelby Gutted stock h-pipe?

    Has anyone with 11-12' GT500 gutted their stock H-pipe with good results? I had an offroad JBA H on order, but canceled due to all the bad reviews.

    A big No No

    Just a word of advice to fellow GT500 owners out there..... If you decide to put 15x10's on your car... and want to go with a 26" tall tire instead of 28".... Unless you have the car lowered, the front matching wheels, and have lca's with relocation brackets, ... DON'T DO IT. I threw some...

    Need track tire pressure advice

    Hey all, I have a 12' GT500 with SVTPP pkg. 19" fronts and 20" rears. I currently have Nitto 555r 305/35/-20s on the rear. I have run these at the track, and can say they are "less" than good for track launch traction. I was also told to not go lower than 20psi on these tires due to the lack of...

    Made my own in-car GoPro mount today for my Shelby

    So I have been looking around online for a decent in-car gopro mount, and although nice, $150.00 just is too much IMO. So today, I took a trip to Home Depot and gathered up some stuff to make my own. I still have to paint everything black to match the interior, but other than that, I have less...

    Pics of GT500 with 6.5" backspace 15x10's

    Does anyone have any pictures of their GT500 with 6.5" backspace 15x10's? I know we need the 7.5" bs range for our cars, and assume the 6.5 will stick out 1" further, My reason for asking is, Jegs has some star wheels for $134.00 ea but only in 6.5" bs. I am looking for a cheap set of wheels...

    Installing my Mcleod clutch and found this..

    this is what we saw when the tranny was pulled out. It appears somehow, the dust boot ripped... I have been having major 1-2 grind issues, and suspected maybe the clutch was not fully disengaging. Perhaps the slave cylinder was getting "sticky" from crap getting inside the boot area...

Can I have any tire shop mount these up? or should I look for a performance shop? I read somewhere about glue? Do they need to glue these tire beads to the rim? Thanks...
