My brother just called me to tell me he just pulled up next to a "Superman" Hardtop GT500 ( Blue w Red Stripes) in Miami. I asked how he knew it was a 2013.... he told me about the 4 tips out the back and the no grill....he said it looked like a Cobra head lol. The cars are being delivered...

Next week I'll be in for my 1st ever tune. Should I make sure to tell the guy tuning the truck to make his runs with OD off? This shop is new to me and they seem to know what they are doing but I wanna be sure i cover all the bases. OD off for dyno runs???? Right?????

Guys, Next week I'm heading for a custom tune and dyno session, first stock and then getting the custom tune by Torq performance. I'm buying a XC3 Tuner, a 2lb lower pullie, and WAS gonna get the Volant CAI. After doing some searches on the forum it seems like most don't care for the...

Hello to all.... I was on this forum many years ago back in 2002 when I was known as 2001SVTMAN. I owned a black 2001 L and loved every second of it. Around 2003 I found out my girl at the time was prego with my son...hence the L had to go. I lost touch and left the forums... since then I've...

TRACK TIMES SLOWER/ BUT WRX STILL DIES Ran at Moroso yesterday and my times were a lot slower then last time. I ran a 13.67 w/@ 103mph/ I was running too much air pressure on the back tires though and it was about 89 degr. compare to mid 60's last time. My question is would these variables...

On my way home from the track yesterday, I met up w/ this kid in an older M-3, I think it was a 98/97.AnyWay after running a 13.095 I was feeling pretty confident. So on the way home me and my brother in his 5.0 GT see this white M-3 comming fast. So my brother takes a crack @ him first. No...

This morning after my morning meeting, all of us headed for our cars. So I calmly take off on my happy way, then I see this friend of mine who has a nice Audi T.T. behind me. I knew he would try his luck, so before I turned on to the straight away, I turned the Over drive off. So there he comes...

When I'm in the drivers side of my L, I hear what seems to be a squeeky side skirt can't tell if that's what it is though....it also happens when I'm rolling slowly but only from the drivers side though. Has anyone else heard this sound? I'm also thinking it might be the WD-40 I squirt under...

On my way to work today I'm at a red light. Through my side mirror I see this mustang comming fast w/ a cowl hood and outside mounted gauges.When he pulled up I glanced to see what it was all about. nothing special typical wanna be. The light turns green and I wait.... he takes off first and...

The kill was on Wednesday after work, it was around 10.00 pm. I pulled up into Wendy's and as I'm trying to order I see this young kid w/ some of his friends foolin around. Then one of them screams "hey that looks like your truck" when I turned my head turns out the kid has a 2001 blk L. His has...

It was about 2 wks ago, I had just gotten my baby back from the body shop and I was happy as hell (still am:) So any way, I pull up to a light, and there's a car in front of me, but that's ok. That car wasn't the problem, it was the Acura next to me. He pulls up in this bad ass (for a ricer)...

Anyone raced a new BMW M-3. I hear these things are reall monsters.When I say new, I mean 2001.I have read some guys here that have raced M-3's but I'm interested in the 2001's. I wonder how my truck would do against one of these? Hmm.....

Well guys I know there has been a lot of tragedy going on lately,but just in case you guys are wondering, I'm back on the board.and my truck just now got taken the body shop.I guess i'll be riding again in about 2-3 wks. Come to think about it I thought i'd be happier but some how after all...

After my crash my L won't start. The front of the car was never touched, just the whole passengers side. My guess it's the fuel reset. I tried starting it but it was like she wanted to start but was out of gas, I know it's somewhere under the passengers side where the computer is, but I haven't...

On my way home from work on friday night, I swerved to avoid some assh*ole and when I did, the wonderfull line mod valve shifted hard as hell, which made me fishtale....(the floor was wet from all the rain).I tried to controll it but I spun into a 360, went over the median, smacked a palm tree...

I was reading MMFF when they said that "The Fridge" was making 362rwhp and if he stomped it from a 20 mph roll he would break the tires loose. Does this mean I'm not making 362 rwhp? I don't know about you guys but I can barely break them loose from a 10mph roll. Any idea what gives? let me...

Hey peeps, Just installed the Line Mod Valve and I have to say it ROCKS! 2nd gear chirp every time, 3rd gear also very hard at w.o.t. Was only able to run her hard 1 time because of traffic, but that's all it took to convince me :) Normal driving the shifts are firm but not neck snapping...

I just purchased the Line Mod Valve from JDM, and I'm wondering how it feels after the install? Any explanations are appreciated.

Just wondering if any of the Florida crew was going to Moroso in West palm beach on Wednesday for test & tune . I'll probalby drive up from Miami so that I can get some real timeslips for "Dark Angel". If anyone reads this and is driving up, please post it here so that we can talk about it...

I noticed when I first started at SVT PERFORMANCE that I was a Rookie SVT Member, but now I'm know as a New member. What gives? Are you assigned a rank like in the army :) ? Don't take this the wrong way, I'm just curious. If diffrent "ranks" are given then can 1 of the moderators please list...

Every time I wash this fuc#$% truck it rains......the truck was at the dealer for 3 wks....no rain. As soon as I get it back it starts pouring....Being a blk truck I just can't say oh well let me wait a couple of wks till rain season is over to wash it again. (HELL NO!) This is my baby I...

Well I put the old g/tech back on yesterday and went for a "spin". And I'm very pleased here goes: 13.36 @ 107.3 mph, 0-60 : 5.0 flat.....not to shabby. I had to launch carefully if not I would smoke them hard :) Wish it would shift harder though. JDM'S line mod valve should take care of...
