Last dyno pull was 689rwhp
Right now I'm having second thoughts. I'm supposed to take it in the morning. I just don't know if I can do it ! Damn ! Never thought I'd be so attached to a car.
I'm
In Northern Indiana
Dealer has a Roush dealership in IL apparently and wants my car just called me again. It's super clean and mainitained well. I don't need another ride and was going to put the cash into another work vehicle - I need to hire another guy, but don't want a payment.
My...
26400 miles
On the new engine 2000.
Also has exedy clutch
Dealer offered me $22500 today. Think I could get 28k-30k if I post it and wait. Just don't know if I want the hassle. Obviously I'm not getting anywhere near what I have into it. Offered me 25k on trade in.

I had a new engine put in as mine blew a couple years ago - it's down 37hp and I'm not feeling the same throttle response. With the new engine all...
When I threw it , I was on the highway going from 60 to 70 to go around a guy. Not high RPM.
It's back and doesn't seem to be running that great. Gonna try a different tune. Throttle response is way off - boost doesn't seem to kick in as it did before.
Dyno was down 30rwhp -
Thanks ! That's awesome ! I'm
Still a little iffy on it - I know we could do it. But damn - I don't think I'm willing to do it yet. I'm gonna talk to my buddy to determine. I could save tons if I do it myself. I really don't want to do anything else after this either. That's the last thing -...
It's above my threashold of knowledge or risk I'm willing to take. The quote I got included valve springs. I'll save it for another time - too soon after the engine replacement - wife still sees the money I dropped then. And it's too much for me to do it without her knowing. Lol
I've been reading more and more - seems very involved and difficult actually. I'm gonna have to hold off - I don't trust myself and a friend to do it -
And I am not allowed to drop $6k more on my car. Wife might kill me. Ha
So I was thinking about changing cams , I got a quote from my tuner and my wife told me to F off - since I just dropped the new engine last year. Is it an easy install ? One of my employees who builds his ricer swears we can do it Easy!
Is it worth doing ? Which ones would you go with ? And...
You're correct I didn't , brain fart

I'm looking at going with a bigger tire
A 305/35/20 drag radial. I just don't know if it will fit.
I don't think I can go with the oem sidewall , my car has the Steeda lowering springs and ford racing suspension set up.
I'm gonna look into it a little more this week.
So I am thinking about going back to 18" or 19" wheels - the 20" look great , but are they too big ?
Running 3:73
I ask what your thoughts are ?
And Why
After a year of saving and rebuilding my company - I got my ride back in spring summer 2016. I didn't drive much last summer as I was swamped at work. Just changed the Diff fluid , oil change , new painted Jlt , changing trans fluid next week. Ready to rock !
Don't drive my car much, took it out tonight and starting getting on highway went from 3rd to 4th about 65mph and I hear a pop and knocking starts like crazy I coast off the exit ramp and pull into a wendy's. See a trail of oil from the car and I can't see under it. Im having it towed home now...
I spoke with VMP today and gave me some advice on changing my injectors , Thank you! Is it easy? I am new to changing crap and always a little scared I will take it off and break it! LOL - I changed my plugs, fuel filter and basic stuff no problem.
I have 80lb injectors and it doesn't seem to...
Had 10% underdrive installed a couple weeks back and got into it finally the other day and felt a hesitation around 100mph at 4500 or so rpm. A little concerned I waited a couple days and tonight it sputtered like crazy in 4th around 110mph and 4500 rpm. Im running the 2013 TVS, Kooks long tube...
So I am changing rotors and pads, I cant get the rear caliper to compress. Got the tool to do it and it still wont go! Am I doing something wrong? Fronts are done already. Is there a trick to getting it? Im lost!
Had 72lb injectors , swapped out the catted kooks for non, upper pulley put on. Going to pick up the car Thursday - curious what gains I should see?

Anything simple I can do for a gain in HP?
Wasgate failed closed over pressure-- I can do some basic fixes, but the TVS is only a couple months old and has been throwing codes off and on since I had it installed. I had it re-calibrated -- I was getting hesitation - Any ideals on a fix ? Or a path I can go to fix? If it is easy I will do...
